Long before I went to university, I became obsessed with the Riemann hypothesis and one of the first things I put on my site was a simple explanation of the Riemann Hypothesis. This was before I ever actually studied math formally, so it's not a very authoritative explanation. For whatever reason, this explanation is now on the first page of search results in google.ca for "Riemann hypothesis" in Canada, and at the top of page 2 on google.com. I get lots of random blog posts citing the explanation I wrote, and every once in a while I get emails from crazy people who think they have solved it providing me with their non-sensical proofs. The problem itself is amazing (even though I don't really understand it). The infinite series is so simple, but it generates so much interesting complexity when you look at it visually: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Zeta_polar.svg/1195px-Zeta_polar.svg.png https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Ze... http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RiemannPrimeCountingFunction.html http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RiemannPrimeCountingFunction.ht...
