Must Read: The Human Shuffle / Roulette

Just earlier today I was thinking to myself.. "I wonder what the next interesting thing on the internet will be".  The answer to that question (whether it be 1994, 1999, 2002, 2007) isn't usually about fundamentally new technology but rather a creative repurposing of already-existing pieces (and often revved up with faster computers).

Here we have something that is (a) not commercial, but can be; and (b) initially wild, but doesn't have to be.
