Stevelknievel.blogspot.com is amazing:) he aggregates news sources from various blog media sources - gawker, la weekly, boing boing - the works and reports on what he considers to be "a directory of news stories about crazy stunts people perform for fame and fortune." what is amazing about stevelknievel - is that I searched for "wes anderson amex commercial" on blogger and his site came up. Later in the day, he posted that I had been the 1,234 visitor to his site in 2.5 months - which is really a great audience stevelknievel! He knew I had been the 1,234 visitor because he knew that the 1,234 visitor had searched for "wes anderson amex commercial" what what. I left a comment to his post. I'm posting this in hopes that he'll leave a comment for me. This is so meta it's killing me! Leave a comment Stevelknievel, leave a comment!!!

We feel fine constantly gathers sentences from blogs with word "feel" in them. it groups them by happy, sad, lonely, etc. It sorts them by gender and location. It sorts pictures by their captions and users can pick their favorite pictures to put in a gallery. It's a beautiful aggregator of the emotions expressed on blogs. Beautiful because it is so heartwrenchingly emotional, but also because the design and user interaction is so beautiful it's calming and mind blowing at the same time.

Most recent post - he has joined a blue sock gang. Hilarious.
