Quarterly.co is a pretty innovative concept: subscribe to get cool stuff that cool people find cool. I learned about it through BoingBoing.net, another excellent site for news and ideas and novelty. I'd written about introducing randomness into one's life as an enrichment exercise, and these sites are worthy options to executing that strategy. I would have liked to get the Opinel knife Mr. Felix Salmon sent out, but alas, I missed the deadline for subscription. Don't make the same mistake.
