Re: List of world’s rivers
Hey, maybe we could have a list of facts like this for all sorts of things. Kind of like Tiny cards!

Not sure what that means but I think we’re on the same page? I would like to memorize the names of all these rivers and know them intimately.

The app Seterra I use every now and then to "learn" geography. More dabbling, but fun.

Re: List of world’s rivers
[mention]panyamnyenyekevu[/mention] I like learning facts. Tinycards used to have muscles and flowers and things you could learn. Rivers is kind of the same thing. I was thinking we can discuss things like that here too!

I’ve changed the title to “Intriguing lists” and here are a few more that interest me especially right now:
Culinary Herbs and Spices:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... and_spices
Which I am working on myself and hope to add to, drawing on such as these:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Spices
And: “List of Australian Herbs and Spices” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... and_spices (what do you think of this list in particular, [mention]Corinnebelle[/mention] ?)
Here is a list of Culinary Fruits:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_culinary_fruits
Some human physiology lists:
*Nerves

*Regions in the brain:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... uman_brain
*Skeleton:

Here’s a list of imagined fields of study based on ancient Greek roots:
http://ideonomy.mit.edu/division.html (it’s the one I thought was gone but the site was merely down) [mention]Explorer[/mention] - do you like these? Nicely suggestive, hm?
Here is an amazing attempt to catalogue superpowers:

Here are geologic timescales:

Re: Intriguing Lists
[mention]panyamnyenyekevu[/mention] Are you working on the Wikipedia page? There is so much information out there!
I thought the name of Voatsiperifery (Piper borbonense) a Madagascar "pepper" interesting!
Celery can be dangerous!
The 2015 United States E. coli outbreak was an incident in the United States involving the spread of Escherichia coli O157:H7 through contaminated celery which was consumed in chicken salad at various large retailers.
I like Backhousia Citriodora Lemon Myrtle. A very powerful substance that seems to help respiratory problems. [This is not a recommendation to take it!]
A granadilla is a kind of passionfruit. Similar sounding names are rollina or graviola.
Where do you find all these lists?

I started memorizing this list.
Culinary Herbs and Spices:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... and_spices
Then I noticed some were out of order alphabetically and that annoyed me so I changed a few around. Then I realized it could probably be doubled or tripled in size when I noticed other lists of spices. I thought: What’s the use of memorizing them if they aren’t very comprehensive? So i want to make it as comprehensive as possible but since “culinary herbs” and “culinary spices” don’t really have a rigid definition and the realm of culinary possibility is always expanding, it will never be authoritative. Still, before I go on with my memorization quest, I want to aggregate the above list with some others.
I have also lately realized that spice blends - such as “old bay,” curry and garam masala - are underrepresented and really quite integral to the concept of using spices, so I want to work on that a bit too at some point.
Well, I think I google “lists —-[idea]—- wiki” and sometimes just google lists — wiki. I’m all about lists these days!
Here is a list of dinosaur genera:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dinosaur_genera
Here is a list of solar system objects:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... em_objects
Thanks for commenting on the page about Australian herbs and spices.

I’m saying you are allowed to create your own quizzes for this app Seterra. I’d love to do that so I can study lots more things like the provinces of Oman or the counties and cities of Virginia. (I just don’t know how yet.)
