Friday Fun

Around the blogosphere after a slow posting week:


  • Game console prices in real dollars, 1976-2006, for those with kids.
  • List: 902 licensed versions of Monopoly. Ditto.
  • HOW TO - Make Homemade Biospheres, science fair projects!
  • Manuals for hundreds of consumer electronics items, for when you lose them. (Not the kids, the consumer electronics' manuals)
  • Sales brochures for extinct computers - Univac, Wang, Apple ///, only a fairly small sample but still fun
  • The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments - 1960, I used to love those old Golden Books.
  • Elijah J. Brubaker is posting drawings and commentary on fifty superheroes.
  • Astronomical Toilet Paper
  • Creating Your Own del.icio.us Cookbook
