In every day of our lives, we learn something new, and whether these factoids etch themselves into our brains, or we forget them as soon as we awake the next day, we were undeniably exposed to something which made us go "huh" for a second.
I'm interested in seeing what you all are learning. Whether it is something personal, technical, historical, mundane, exciting, or incredibly esoteric, I think that extra drop of knowledge wouldn't mind being shared.
So here is something I learned today.
Hellen Keller was a radical socialist, communist sympathizer, and openly praised the USSR....along with overcoming blindness and deafness. Most of what people learn about her covers simply the first 20-something years of her life, but for 60+ years later she lived a lifestyle that has never once been mentioned in the any of the history books I've read...and I'm a history major.
Also, I learned of the existence of the Motorola/Google/Verizon Droid. Will it be the jesusphone killer? We'll see. Being on the Verizon Network sure does help though.
