The World Clock

World Clock.jpg

The World Clock (you need to click the URL to see it live) tracks births, deaths, respiratory infections, and other chipper fare in real time.

Seventeen people developed tuberculosis and 932 people were born in the time it took me to write this post. 111,320 people died and 53 animal species went extinct so far today, which, you know, makes me want to go drink tequila now.
