Bet you never heard of the site, 'Johnny Lists'. Well, me neither, Until today. I did a search for 'daily surveys' using Google and on the second or third page 'Johnny Lists' came up. And so I investigated this little gem of a site.
So, what exactly is 'Johnny Lists' you ask? Good question. Basically "these are lists - posted almost daily - to improve your life and your knowledge." Interesting premise so I went further.
The first set of lists was '10 Websites You Should Bookmark' - which includes sites like Productchart.com (an interactive product comparison site), all-free-download.com (a download resource for designers), mealdb.com (best restaurants and cafes nearby), pizzacodes.com (coupon codes for your local pizza store) and scr.im (convert your email address to share safely and openly)
Another interesting list was titled, '8 Websites to Teach You Random Knowledge'. With links like sporcle.com, mentalfloss.com, nowiknow.com and factoclock.com there's always something to learn on the site.
Titles of other lists include '7 Amazingly Unique Items To Help You Get Around', 'How to Control Your Temper', and '12 Free Things For Students' and many more.
Users can subscribe to Johnny Lists by email (click link), find Johnny Lists Most Popular Posts to Date and look in a Johnny List archive that goes back to at least May 2014.
Note that the archive is just a smaller version of the individual webpages. It might sound odd, but its a very clever way to see many posts on one page. Users can click on each page and the title of each page is easily seen. Smart idea.
Finally, readers should note that Johnny Lists is pretty much a black and white interface. No graphics and has a sparse look to it. But - and this is a big but (but a good one) - the site is very user-friendly and intuitive to use.
Finally, readers can click on this link, to find books about lists in the library card catalog. The subject of this search was 'organizing lists' and I narrowed down the results to items held in the Farmingdale Public Library circulating collection of material.
Enjoy the links, the lists and the books!

Stu
