Overnight Project

8 Comments By Thomas Chapin on December 27, 2007

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

We just finished putting together this fun little web project the other night:
100 Facts About Literally Anyone

Basically, you put in someone’s name, and it returns 100 “facts” about that person.

Note: This project also makes experimental use of the “Google/MySpace Theory” where functionality takes precedence over looks (hence the horrible non-design).

The last was meant for the caption contest, not that it doesn’t fit here too.

I agree with John. Great idea, excellent execution. I am a fan and advocate of building simple tools that put the power in the hands of the users. (Even though they’re the same facts, each user creates a unique user experience based on the name they insert)

Everyone I’ve shown this to has laughed when reading their names in the facts, even if they had already seen the original Chuck Norris versions.

Great job!
