Brainypedia.com is founded on the belief that odd and interesting facts are like vitamins for your brain. We believe that one of the best things about the internet is that it allows you to browse totally random, weird, and eclectic websites and uncover things that you never knew where out there. To that end, we have assembled a collection of largely unrelated articles, scraps of information, quotes, and books that we find interesting. One day, we may actually organize this mess into a more coherent collection, but don't count on it.
