A Peek Into Netflix Queues - NYTimes.com
Possibly the most interesting interactive graphic the Times has produced from social data. Beyond some of the surprises in this data, this is a small, yet perfect example of why open data is so powerful. Kudos to Netflix for releasing the data—I hope we see more like this.
Daring Fireball links to a sharp student redesign of the UK power plug, which reminds me of our toaster, the Breville Die-Cast. Pulling out this plug feels totally safe and sturdy. It’s a great little toaster overall, with really cool controls including a progress bar and the world’s best button: “A Bit More”.
I have the same toaster and I love this detail of it. Makes it satisfying to unplug and ensures you never pull on the cord rather than the plug.
An amazing apartment in Brooklyn’s Clock Tower Building is on the market. You must look through these photos. I could have no furniture or possessions for the rest of my life and be happy in this place. Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my keyboard…

Apparently NYC is in the desert today and will be under a typhoon the rest of the week. What’s not to like?
Love what was done with the quirky lawn chairs at the end of their short lives in Times Square’s new pedestrian plaza. Looks as if there’s a lawn-chair-magnet at the center. Gothamist has some more shots of the (dis)assembly.
Exceptionally made Apply-style (save for the music) spot deservedly pounding AT&T. Sums up recent attitudes toward the sole iPhone carrier quite nicely.

Can it be? The first forecast this sunny all summer.
Finally getting around to painting the living room. Well, the boyfriend is. I’m loving the color.
