THE LONG SWATH...
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/LDCMLongSwath/?src=features-hp
On April 12, 2013, the Landsat Data Continuity Mission
(LDCM) reached its final altitude of 705 kilometers (438 miles). One
week later, the satellite’s natural-color imager scanned a swath of land
185-kilometers wide and 9,000 kilometers long (120 by 6,000 miles)—an
unusual, unbroken distance considering 70 percent of Earth is covered
with water.

Likes don’t save lives...
It’s easier than ever to support a good cause – all you have to do is
hit the like button. The organization gets one more supporter and you
get positive publicity among your friends. But even though it’s
important to be liked, likes can’t fund medicine, water or food. In this
campaign for Unicef Sweden, we highlight the absurdness of our blind
faith in likes, to raise money for vaccine.

More than half of the world's population lives inside this circle...
Even more mindblowing: said circle is mostly water.
This simple but eye-opening take on global population distribution comes from redditor valeriepieris, who writes:
Additional things I've realized: There are more Muslims in the circle than outside of it. There are more Hindus in the circle than outside of it. There are more Buddhists in the circle than outside of it... The circle pulls all of this off while being mostly water and including the most sparsely populated country on earth (Mongolia).
Yes, we
realize this is a compromise projection (a Winkel Tripel projection, to
be exact) and that the "circle" in this image is not actually a circle,
but that's besides the point. What's truly noteworthy about this
visualization is how clearly and effectively it conveys an astonishing
truth about the world. More to the point: the design concept is so
straightforward, a 5-year-old can wrap her head around its meaning; and
yet the ideas and discussions it engenders – about population density,
about government, about political ideologies, about the expansion of
human populations – are effectively limitless. Several such discussions
have popped up over on reddit. You can check them out here.
...also 99.9% of the world Panda population...
Hats off, valeriepieris. This one had us rubbing our eyes in astonishment.

Plug It On The Window
The Window Socket offers a neat way to harness solar energy and use it as a plug socket. So far we have seen solutions that act as a solar battery backup, but none as a direct plug-in. Simple in design, the plug just attaches to any window and does its job intuitively.
