If you haven’t checked it out, you must immediately (do not pass go, do not collect $200) to DamnInteresting.com. For a trivia freak like me, this is the holy grail of useless, but fascinating knowledge. Oh, sure, I can spend days on end reading Wikipedia (who couldn’t?) but the guys behind DamnInteresting.com know what piques a geek’s mind and are pretty damn good writers to boot.

With sections on Disasters, Medical Science, Space Exploration, The World of Tomorrow, Thinking on the Edge, Your Tax Dollars at Work and more, there’s enough content there to keep you from getting any work done all day, if not longer. Plus, a “Random Article” feature lets one explore the site without structure, much like one would expect from font of the mundane.

In short, the site’s URL says it all. You’ve got to check it out.
