The New York Times published a story named "As the Web Matures, Fun Is Hard to Find" about three months ago (remember, you need to register for free to read this story).
Well, I disagree.
Matthew McClintock, a 35-year-old webmaster from Chicago, has created a website that attempts to document everything in his house, from the boxers in his dresser to the tools in the basement, and absolutely everything else in between.
Since last October, McClintock has carefully gone around his three-story house photographing and documenting everything it contains, including cooking utensils, books, T-shirts, and pens in a desk drawer.
He has taken digital pictures of each item, down to the lone chopstick in the kitchen junk drawer -- and written a short description of each: more than 2,000 objects in all.
And all these objects are viewable -- and searchable -- at his well-organized website, mc.clintock.com.
Have fun!
