Our Awards
and what they had to say about us (if anything).


It's about time someone pointed this stuff out! Everything from why some chickens are wearing contact lenses to the scoop on how your brassiere could kill you (I've taken mine off to be safe) can be found on this site. Drop by during your lunch hour! It's easier to explain to your boss that you've been visiting this site than www.playboy.com when she's reviewing the company's web activity logs!

No, we haven't missed the irony, but trust us -- this is a great site. Full of articles and information on some very trivial subjects that will keep you reading for a while. If you like trivia and Cable stations like A&E, The Learning Channel or The History Channel, you're gonna love this site. 
With the weekend at hand, it's time to get useless...useless information, that is.  These are assorted anecdotes that serve no purpose but to entertain.  Try not to let these make you think too hard.  If you feel bad about not showing up for last week's election, be sure to read about Mount Pelee's election day, in 1902. 
Totally Useless Bits of Information! Did you know? Hedy Lamarr invented the first twin torpedo system. What forgotten President of the U.S.A. was assassinated... twice? 
Trivia that might win contests! 
Fascinating true stories about things that you probably never knew. Fun and easy to navigate. 
Vaseline? A miracle gel? Contact Lenses for Children? America's First Toilet Paper Shortage? While the fascinating, fun, and often freaky factoids showcased at Useless Information may not be a helpful resource for, say, the next job interview, everyone who visits here will enjoy the surprising number of unusual tidbits available. Each item, such as a detailed account of the Great Molasses Boston Tragedy, is featured in a separate sub-page. Links to This is True, Why Ask Why?, Mr. Smarty Pants Knows, and other fun pages are provided. Users with a taste for trivia will want to check out the many reference resources noted in the Articles and Books sub-page.
Who says that useless information isn't fun information? If you're the curious type and have a few minutes to spare, visit the Useless Information Home Page. Here you'll find tidbits about everything from self-propelling rocks to the history of Vaseline. Additional links and references are provided for each fun fact.
