What I’d like: Film List.

I’d be really pleased if someone would build this web+iphone app:

  1. Single service site that allows me to add films I’d like to see to a list by typing or saying name of film
  2. Film entries map to a central database to ensure title/director correct (or can add a new entry if not in database)
  3. Links to (or pulls in info from) IMDB
  4. Allows me to make multiple lists, or simply filter using tags
  5. Drag-and-drop to prioritize films for watching
  6. Drop-down button next to film name allows me to select a link to stream or download (and rent or buy) the film, using APIs or scraping (e.g. rent from iTunes, add to Netflix queue, go to correct page on IndieMoviesOnline)
  7. Simple way for other sites (e.g. Flavorpill) to put a “Add to my Film List” button next to any films reviewed
  8. Can cross off films I watch (or automatically accomplish by buying a ticket through Fandango) and add a comment to provide a sort of ongoing diary of all the films I’ve seen

Seems the heavy lifting would be in the back-end database matching.

Which is the world’s most expensive city? Costs of living compared | The Guardian

This is interesting.  Want your newspaper and a cup of coffee in the morning?  Moscow is the most expensive city (amongst those shown) to do so.
A nice 2-bedroom flat will set you back $2500 in both NYC and London. But Tokyo costs 14% more.  And Luanda, Angola is 80% more.  On that note:

Around one-third of Angolans live in Luanda, 57% of whom live in poverty. Living conditions in Luanda are extremely poor, with essential services such as safe drinking water still in short supply.   Luanda is the world’s most expensive city for overseas Americans.

I’m liking this Warby Parker concept:

 
Warby Parker was founded with a rebellious spirit and a lofty objective: to create boutique-quality, classically crafted eyewear at a revolutionary price point.
A collaboration between four close friends, Warby Parker was conceived as an alternative to the overpriced and bland eyewear available today. Prescription eyewear simply should not cost $300+. 

 
You pick from a nice selection of updated vintage models — all priced at $95 — input your prescription, and your new specs arrive in the mail a week later. They also deliver 1 pair of glasses to someone in need for every pair they sell.
I got the Huxleys in light tortoise.

And I like both of those albums, to boot.
