Fat Fingers by Josh Rubin
Fat Fingers is a website that searches online auctions for incorrect spellings . More than just internet enabled schadenfreude, discovering typos and misspellings is a way to find items with fewer or no bids. Taking advantage of other's sloppiness is as easy as typing your search into a field, which then directs you to a search of all the common mistakes on the website you've chosen from a pull-down menu. There's also an advanced search function and a downloadable widget for Ebayaholics.

Lost at E Minor
Some might recognize Lost at E Minor from their frequent contributions to CH, but they also host their own site that covers trends and pop culture from all over the world. The page recently underwent a big overhaul. I was able to speak with founding editor Zolton Zavos, whose desk is conveniently next to mine at Cool Hunting HQ. What led you to create...
