www.wheresgeorge.com
I founds this site a couple days ago (via Wikipedia...), and it's a fairly interesting prospect. The idea is fairly simple: enter paper money into the database, mark it (most popular seems to be rubber stamps), and use it per normal. Then you hope someone will notice the URL on the dollar bill, go to the site, and enter it again (called a hit). I imagine a lot of people will ignore such a marking, but it's still quite fun. Here's an example bill that I marked (yeah, I did all 77 in pen I will buy a stamp to do it): For those people not native to the United States, there's Where's Willy? for Canadian paper money, and a bunch of other sites for other currencies (including Euros, Swedish kronor, etc). In the system so far, I've entered 77 bills totaling $199: BY DENOMINATION: $2 bills - 57 (big fan of $2 ) $1 bills - 15 $20 bills - 3 $5 bills - 2 BY SERIES: 2003A - 66 2003 - 4 2004 - 3 2006 - 3 2001 - 1 STAR NOTES: One $20 bill, series 2004 BY FEDERAL RESERVE BANK: San Francisco (L) - 65 Chicago (G) - 5 Richmond (E) - 3 New York (B) - 2 Boston (A) - 1 Dallas (K) - 1 BY BLOCK LETTER (last serial number letter): * - 1 A - 59 B - 5 D - 1 E - 2 F - 1 G - 3 I - 3 M - 1 Q - 1 BY ZIP CODE: 89199, Las Vegas Nevada - 77 (I'm here until April 3) |

I should check if the two dollar bill I have is registered there.
I should have registered my 500 SEK bill to that Swedish site, and meh... I used to have allot of Euro bills last month. XD Funny in germany last month actually. I had three kind of bills with me, USD, SEK and Euro. The USD was accidently brought there... xD (Happened to be a 2 USD bill as well) ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Ha... my mom found this site a while ago, but I'd completely forgotten it. I registered a new account just now and entered the $9 that is currently in my wallet. ____________________ hax.iimarck.us |

Where's George isn't very new. Or personally, very interesting either.
Also, jargon is going to be banned until February 33rd, 2090 for being a dick and embedding a rickroll in his header. Though the song is kinda interesting. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |
