Amazing Facts from FACTSlides – A Cloudeight Site Pick
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so five pictures must be worth five thousand words. This Cloudeight Site Pick needs no words to describe it, but we will tell you these “slides” are just the tip of the iceberg. If you want to spend several hours learning fascinating facts, like the ones below, you should take it upon yourself to pour a cup of coffee, turn off the TV, turn off the cell phone, turn off the house phone, and within an hour you’ll be a fount of weird and exotic, sometimes trivial knowledge you can use somehow, somewhere down the road.
These examples are from the main “Random Facts” section.
But you can also browse facts by category. All categories are in alphabetical order. Here’s a glimpse of some of the many categories you can choose from.
