Yahoo! Picks - bringing you the best of the Web since 1995

We love found objects. There, we said it. Given our proclivity, this site is a welcome twist on the provenance of items left behind and forgotten. The site's title comes from a lost journal purchased at a knickknack store in Hong Kong. This vintage diary was then carefully scanned page by page to reveal its treasure trove of contents. The twist? Just about everything in the book is written in Chinese characters. The site hopes to harness the power of the Web in order to unlock the mysteries within this long-forgotten book. If your translation skills are sharp and you have a few minutes to contribute, your efforts can help unravel tiny secrets that otherwise would have been lost to the sands of time.
