I thought on the basis of the rather awesome random photo thread it would be cool to have a random Fact thread.
The thread idea is that every post has one cool fact that you have come across today, preferably with a link to the source and a picture if you’re feeling like it.
I’ll start with one that was new to me Today, though I suspect that most of you already know it.
One of the very first successful business ventures that Steve Jobs had?

Selling a blue box allowing people to make free calls illegally. Jobs and Wozniak made around $6,000 in 1972 selling them.
In my defence the whole article by Juniper is quite interesting.
