I figure I already have too much junk in the sidebar to accommodate this, but it is pretty cool:

If you'll check this post every day, you'll see that the calendar really works. And my visitor stats will be huge! Or, not as teensy.

It's the Human Calendar®; you can learn more about it here, and grab one of the code variations here. There's even a variation that will run on a Chumby, whatever the heck that is (my new mantra: Intentionally Ignorant).

But, more interesting to me than the human calendar is the Human Clock project, conceived by the same guy. Go to this page, click on "View the Clock," and start playing around with it. You'll get the hang of it pretty quickly. The fact that the guy convinced Lance Armstrong to join in validates the concept, I'm sure you'll agree.

I'll be more impressed if the organizer ever gets his clock to display seconds.

And, once again we see that the simple fact that something can be done is quite sufficient justification for actually doing that thing.
