More of the Unique

More of the Unique
More links, this time I strayed from posting up the bizarre and stuck to links providing useful information in the form of infographics, and a few games for those looking to kill a little time.  Sorry for the delay on links, I was busy biting my nails while watching a live map of the election results.  And now it's time for me to celebrate!

Interesting

A portable shelter for the homeless, would be nice if every homeless person could have one of these at the very least.

Find out how popular your first or last name is, or for that matter anyone's name.

Infographics

In a previous post there was a link to view an estimation of the world population, and the U.S. population.  This site takes it a lot farther, and provides populations for what looks like nearly every country, as well as a wealth of additional information.

An interesting way of visualizing the world population.

Online Games

A very simple game that loads rather quickly, and is visually appealing.  A good way to kill some time, if you have it.

Another rather simple game, and I'm not normally a fan of the match three type games, but this one held my interest.
