I saw this site today, and thought you may find it interesting. Yes, you. Who else do you think is reading this right now? It's the World Clock. Basically it gives expected/projected real-time updates of stats like births, deaths, extinctions, reforestation, etc. It's kind of neat. Keep in mind that some of the stats are only from the last 225 days or so (depending on when you're actually reading this). So, when you look at something like extinctions, and think it's low, it is.


It's a bit like this version of the old site, Cost of War, which shows, in real time, how much the US is spending on the war, and what else that money could have bought. Like 4, 069, 987 housing units.
