The Top 10 of Top 10’s

It’s been an running joke at digg for a while now. Each new Top 10 story would get the inevitable comment of :”Now, we only need a Top 10 of Top 10s and everything would be perfect.” The wait is over: here is that Top 10, in no particular order…

  1. Top 10 Accidental discoveries: Wired ranked Viagra, LSD and X-rays as their 3 best accidental discoveries
  2. Top 10 Free Time-Wasting Sites: Open this link with extreme caution. Enough said.
  3. Top 10 Strangest Lego Creations: I want that Lego Pinball Machine… Some people have WAY too much time in their hands.
  4. Top 10 Wierdest Keyboards: The Virtual Laser Keyboard has been around for a while, but here are some new and/or more obscure ones for you pleasure.
  5. Top 10 Things that are not taught in Design School: A nice post summarising why design school is good, but not enough. Very interesting read.
  6. Top 10 OpenSource Web Designs: Let’s stay in design for a while and take a quick glimpse at the top 10 designs downloaded today on Open Web Design.
  7. Top 10 strangest iPod accessories: In case you need an iBed or an iVibrator…
  8. Top 10 System Administrator Truths: Sound advice such as “Printers suck” and “Backups are crucial”. There are less obvious things too, and not far from the Real Truth
  9. Top 10 Science Pictures of 2005: The BBC runs this selection once a year, and it’s always fun to watch. The descriptions are useful too!
  10. Top 10 Crazy Science Things You Didn’t Know: With a name like this, it’s hard to miss. It has some nice things in it, though such as “You can Hypnotize Chickens “, “Don’t laugh too much, it can kill you ” and “Your hand can have a life of it’s own ” all with basic explainations.

An honorable mention goes to techEblog, who runs regularly some of the wierdest and imaginative top 10s known to man.

The Top 10 of Top 10s…

It has to happen somehow. You know, just like “best of the best” or “top of the pops”, now we have the Top 10 of the Top 10s. The list links to other sites where you can read more about it.
Some interesting items are Top 10 Free…

Trackback by mrBadak.com — July 27, 2006 @ 9:14 pm

I got away with that by adding the mandatory Honorable mention… :P

Comment by Julien — July 26, 2006 @ 10:53 pm

Good to see you sticking with 10. Usually these kinds of Top 10 lists have 11 items.

Comment by Hank — July 26, 2006 @ 8:19 pm

Veronica: My goal was not to copy the link you posted, I didn’t even know that it existed. However, this must have been a good idea because it has been done before… ;)

In order to reach a Top 10 of Top 10 of Top 10s, you have to have at least 10 Top 10 of Top 10s (err… confusing, but I think it’s ok.)
