Fantastic.

"I spent fifty-nine pounds and seventeen pence on Fifa 09′s Ultimate Team mode. That is painful to admit, and I had to check it three times. £59.17."

"I work at a used and rare bookstore, and I buy books from people everyday. These are the personal, funny, heartbreaking and weird things I find in those books." Bookmarks, dedications, receipts, adverts. Lovely.

A "museum" of Flash site loading screens. Not sure what to say, really.

Eric Kaltman is blogging the Cabrinety Collection, and he's doing a great job so far.

"The Stephen M. Cabrinety Collection in the History of Microcomputing at Stanford University consists of several thousands of pieces of computer hardware and software. Dating primarily from the 1980s and 1990s, the collection chronicles the formative era of personal computing, specifically computer gaming." Amazing.

Moving away from modelling and into vast-scale collection; back to the ways of natural philosophy. Only this time: we really can collect enough *stuff*.
