Check out this BBC website that lets you find your place among the 7 billion people of the earth.

I'm the 3,031,118,747th (~3.03 billionth) person alive on Earth and the 76,675,530,446th (~76.67 billionth) person to have lived since history began.

It said my mother's a whore. Is that normal?

Today is supposedly the day when we go over 7 billion. Time to bring in the scoops?

I heard a cool fact on NPR about this...if all 7 billion of us stood shoulder-to-shoulder, the mass of humanity would fill an area the size of the city of Los Angeles.

I was actually surprised how little physical space we occupy.

It would be amazing how many of us our planet could actually support, if we all were herdable like sheep. 7 billion in an area the size of LA? Couldn't we support that easy with all the extra space? This isn't counting, obviously, the fact that 7 billion people in one area is illogical, impractical and generally inconceivable.
