FlikPik
We only have so much time left, so why waste your time watching bad movies? What if there was a way to pick your next movie to watch from a list of the best movies ever? And what if you could filter that list to reflect your personal preferences? Using data from IMDB and some proprietary algorithms to come up with final rankings, a list of the best movies ever is presented. Daily cron jobs keep the data fresh. Dynamic filtering allows you to find hidden gems, mark movies as seen, and add them to a watchlist. Movies on your favorite streaming services are a click away.

Divvy It Up!
After growing tired of the complicated math involved in sharing costs when traveling with friends, I decided to make a tool to do the math for you. You can add events, friends, and costs, and it will tell you who owes money to each person in the end. Now, it's a site where people can split costs for travel, rent, or anything. Pie charts show how costs have been shared.

Photography
Purple Lotus
Bangkok, Thailand
This beauty was floating amongst lily pads at Wat Arun. In Buddhist symbolism, the lotus represents purity of the body, speech, and mind as if floating above the muddy waters of attachment and desire.

Haystack Rock is a 235-foot sea stack, a column of rock formed by wave erosion. Haystack Rock can be seen in the opening scene of The Goonies, when the Fratellis are fleeing from the police and then enter a race on the beach. It can also be seen in the movie Kindergarten Cop, during the carnival scene later in the movie.
Dusk Over Gamla Stan
Stockholm, Sweden
The sunset over the Riddarfjärden as seen from an outlook called Monteliusvägen. A small crowd of people crammed the overlook to hug and take selfies and converse loudly. It should be rule to be silent during a sunset.
Colosseum
Rome, Italy
Built of concrete and sand, it's the largest amphitheater ever built. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian in AD 72 and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir Titus.
Death Train
Oświęcim, Poland
This carriage is modeled after those used to transport victims to the Birkenau concentration camp in Poland. It was here where the trains unloaded, people were "selected," and families were broken. The main entrance to Birkenau, known as the Death Gate, looms in the background.
Sistine Chapel
Vatican City
Between 1508 and 1512, Michelangelo painted the chapel's ceiling, a project which changed the course of Western art and is regarded as one of the major artistic accomplishments of human civilization. No photography is allowed inside (oops) because Nippon Television Network Corporation of Japan, having funded renovations starting in 1980, has exclusive photography rights of the work.
Church of the Holy Sepulchre
Jerusalem, Israel
This church in Jerusalem is said to have been built on the hill where Jesus was crucified and to contain the place where Jesus was buried. The church has been a paramount pilgrimage destination for Christians since at least the 4th century, as the purported site of the resurrection.
