links links links, part 1: random links
There are a few links I’ve been meaning to put up. Things I find interesting but I don’t want to add to the sidebar on the right.
Random links:
- designverb: a blog about design related topics, largely product design and the like. fairly interesting stuff.
- rbally has a nice Cat Power show from Berlin for download [update: rbally seems to have taken this down/ broken]
- youtube has a great chemistry lab safety video explosion. (dylan, are you seeing this?)
- bitsandpieces silly college humor, but sometimes entertaining
- wikipedia has a list of African countries by GDP (adjusted for purchasing power parity) per capita. South Africa’s on top, but barely. For reference, the US is 3rd in the world for GDP (PPP) per capita at about $42,000.
- oregon trail is it possible you haven’t played this game? there are even shirts about it. And you can download an emulated version
- Tom Wilson I feel like I should add him to my list of best producers. He did Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, Velvet Underground and more

3. I was just playing Oregon Trail last week – I downloaded it for os9, and went to town. All my children died.

Never played Oregon Trail. Never played Pac Man. Video games? I like Free Cell. Especially on Yahoo! Games, because all the cards go crazy when I win. YES, and I am the purchaser for CD-ROM GAMES at my library. I read reviews. I love the reviews. I LIVE by the reviews. I’ll check out the other links later.

When I was in elementary school, my friends and I played Oregon Trail and we tried to get as far as possible under certain restrictions. The favorite restriction was that you weren’t allowed to buy any clothes before starting out. So, we had to see how far we could get in the buff. It turns out, not that far.
