This idea is awesome.

It’s a wiki where consumers can share information about products.

It’s still in development, but the creators appears to be paying a lot of attention to the polotics of wiki, to attempt to minimise any abuse of power etc.

It’s about fucking time I wrote in my own blog.

I felt a need to share this. It’s an article on sleep deprivation and its effects on the US. I’m guessing the pattern is pretty much the same in the rest of the western world.

Some tidbits from it:

• People sleep around 2 hours less per night on average than they did a century ago
• Sleep deprivation is a major cause of vehicle and workplace accidents

And my favorite:

• Daylight saving time causes accidents!

But hey, it reduces energy consumption by 1%!
