I found this little gem through Venkat Subramaniam and company's blog on development on OS X: Nocturne is a Mac app that acts like a night vision mode that provides some super snazzy high-contrast for those times when you need it most (to save power, or in bright situations, etc.).

As seen on Reddit: (SFW) pictures of people's first reactions to goatse (if you don't know, don't look. There is such thing as knowledge that should not be sought.)
