The Playboy Database

This is just so wonderfully nerdy. Peggy Wilkins, Playboy connoisseur and U. of Chicago sysadmin runs a database on the U of C system that, well, read on:

The searchable database stores [all the Playmates'] names, the months they appeared in the magazine, their birthdates and birthplaces, and who photographed them, plus their height, weight, and astonishing measurements. She also created databases for the Playboy special editions—photo-only issues of Playboy models—and the Playboy Cyber Club Daily Doubles, new photos of Playboy models available only to paying subscribers of Playboy.com. “I used to have it all memorized,” she says.

Did I mention she also rents a separate one-bedroom apartment just to store her collection of Playboys and paraphernalia?

Check out the article about Wilkins in the Chicago Reader. It’s sexily, nerdily awesome.
