It's cool that my first sighting of the new bill is online. It's still amazing to me that we use paper money and write checks for thousands of dollars with a pen. And, yeah, for those of you who think they can do better, visit the Fed's design your own bill center!

they're way better looking than the old money, but they are still ugly. here's the new campaign in action on 42nd st.

Jeanne Moos did a piece on CNN about the new $20 the other day...she tried to spend it all over town and got a perfect triple-take from a hot dog vendor.

Can't they get someone with a modicum of aesthetic sense to design US money?

the asthetic appeal of the new bills is debatable, but the color coding of different denominations is a definate improvement. standing at a cash register rifling through a wad of 1's for that one 20 you know you have in there is a pain in the ass.
