Project 365: How to Take a Photo a Day and See Your Life in a Whole New Way People will often say that their whole lives flashed before their eyes after they experienced a traumatic event. Perhaps it’s a bit morbid, but we think that sounds pretty incredible. When Taylor McKnight started taking a photo a day on January 1st, 2004, he never imagined the project would not only serve as a way to remember a year, but also help him understand what was important to him in his life. Whether it was his relationships, his career, or his fashion sense, recording a photo a day for a whole year left him with a rich visual history of his life. And it made him a better photographer to boot! Now that he’s in the middle of doing it for a second time, we asked Taylor to write about it for us. Why do it? Taking a photo a day is a big undertaking with big payoffs. Imagine being able to look back at any day of your year and recall what you did, who you met, what you learned… (Often we find it hard to remember what we did just yesterday or even last night, let alone a whole year ago!)

Daily Afternoon Randomness (48 Photos Follow John on Tapiture A reminder that one of our favorite Chivers, Josh Krajcik takes the stage on The X Factor tonight. Josh has made the Final 10 and just wrote me this email: Dude, overwhelming support from theCHIVE and Chivers. The X Factor starts tonight at 8/7 C on Fox and you can vote right here. I’m making a late addition to the DAR today, and for good reason. For example, sites like YouTube, Tumblr, and even theCHIVE could be effectively tossed into the void if a commenter decided to post a link to these ‘banned’ sites. Because our representatives in Congress have such a poor grasp of how important a free and open internet is, they’re simply going to pass this steaming pile unless we do something about it. Read this article and watch the video. Thanks and Chive On! John

Your Age on Other Worlds Want to melt those years away? Travel to an outer planet! <div class="js-required"><hr> This Page requires a Javascript capable browser <hr></div> Fill in your birthdate below in the space indicated. The Days (And Years) Of Our Lives Looking at the numbers above, you'll immediately notice that you are different ages on the different planets. The earth is in motion. The top-like rotation of the earth on its axis is how we define the day. The revolution of the earth around the sun is how we define the year. We all learn in grade school that the planets move at differing rates around the sun. Why the huge differences in periods? Johannes Kepler Tycho Brahe Kepler briefly worked with the great Danish observational astronomer, Tycho Brahe. Here you see a planet in a very elliptical orbit. Kepler's third law is the one that interests us the most. Let's just solve for the period by taking the square root of both sides: The Gravity Of The Situation Isaac Newton ©2000 Ron Hipschman
