Listverse: Ultimate Top 10 Lists

when this site arrived among my RSS, I knew I had to share ListVerse with everyone ! As evidenced by the popularity of the many trivia books out there, librarians are not the only folks who love trivia. The List Universe staff have compiled lists to satisfy every curious inquirer - enjoy browsing !
site: "The List Universe serves over 4.5 million pages a month to more than 1.5 million readers. We are focused on lists that intrigue and educate, specializing in the bizarre or lesser-known trivia. Every day we present a new unique list in any one of our twenty-two categories, from art to travel." The home page has the 20 latest lists, or choose the tab for Popular or Controversial lists. The Archives section has a complete index to all lists on the List Universe - sorted by 20 catagories that include: Art & Literture ~ Bizarre ~ Controversial ~ Crime & Mystery ~ Entertainment ~ Fact & Fiction ~ Food & HealthHistory ~ Leisure &  Travel ~ Movies ~ Music ~ People & Politics ~ Podcast ~ Religion ~ Science & Nature - and more !

"The List Universe has been featured on BBC Radio, Radio Scotland, Alabama Radio, BBC Television World News International, and in the New York Times. We regularly feature on the front pages of social networking sites Fark and Reddit."
