Buddy sent this to me, fun site.

Fascinating!

Hmmm, didn't see a readout for how many sneakers Zia has drooled over in the last hour.
It was interesting...the numbers seem weird to me...but I guess it's all true because it's on the internet...
Changing the figure to keep up with Zia's drools would tax the processing power of any otherwise capable computer.
yeah the Z/Shoe factors would be complete breakdown.

and T~ it fascinated me too, i had more fun with the "Now" button, i think there may be a disclaimer in the bottom right that all numbers are approximations of previous statistics. i was almost hypnotized by watching some of them, wish i could modify/upload my own desired fields.
hmm.... it WOULD be interesting to quantitatively measure the amount of shoes i have drooled over..

thats a SUPER intersting site Jarrod, do you guys think its pretty accurate?.. i think after you hit the " now" button it looks pretty legit!
dude i think it is close, like we always hear stats but it is odd to see them in action.
True, but i think the site is supposed to sell you " happiness" right?.. so in order to do that it has to make you genueinly sad right?

so im just wondering if the statistics they chose were designed to make you sad so you'd by those motivational dvds or whatever..

or maby its just the subjects that they chose that were sad..
probably a bit of clever marketting and a bit of bummer choice selection, i mena where's the app showing number of first kisses or something
oh yeah..i think i've seen this =).
I also wondered about the numbers. Like the CO2 levels. I imagine somewhere on the site there's some info on how they arrived at the methodology for setting each "clock," and if we're just obsessive enough, we can check.
I want an app displaying number of kittens getting hugs
