Take Five with MakeFive for List Junkies

Lists, lists, lists!

People’s fascination with lists is understandable. For some reason or another, when we see a list it ranks things for us, provides us a perspective, perhaps even influences us in a way we don’t even recognize. We put so much emphasis on lists that now a site has been created that is strictly dedicated to lists.

MakeFive is a site that basically says “you are what you think.” How true. The site has Top 5 lists for just about anything and everything. Top 5 favorite fonts, SNL cast members, people that inspire, just to name a few from the front page.

You can share lists, connect with others that list similar items, and comment on one another’s lists. The interaction is there, but I went cross eyes after being on this site for too long. WARNING: View this site in small doses, you’ll lose your vision…or at least go crosseyed like I did.

The site was useful professionally as I got top ranked business books, design sites, education sites, etc. So basically the site can be as useful or as silly as you want it to be. I definitely recommend this site as a “to pass the time” reference. I think you’ll be surprised at what you find.
