Linkology: The Best of the Internet for 10/29/10
One year ago, I had not exorcised my deep-seated fear of skeletons. Fast forward to the present, nothing has changed. This is bothersome to me. Am I the only one who has stuff like this?
Instead of unearthing other petty fears a 41 year old man shouldn’t even be entertaining, here are some links. Am I avoiding issues? Yes. See me next year when I’m 42 and my therapist is $5K richer.
Joe Wilcox on Microsoft’s Q1 2011 numbers. Good news, but there are a few things to look at. Their Xbox division, always lauded by MS brass, has income that’s a drop in the bucket compared to Windows and Office. What’s more, their online services posted a $560M loss.
Neven Mrgan’s week as seen through his Wikipedia browsing history. Looks as schizophrenic as mine.
Mark Doesn’t Understand Animals, a webcomic.
Amazon Windowshop for iPad. It’s equal parts awesome and beautiful. And how about its hybrid architecture: a rich client iOS app built atop a web service. Nice.
Eight Successful People Dong Exactly What They Want. Very good reading right here. (Make sure you click through them all.)
Fainting goat kittens. What a strange disorder.
Finally, because I think it’s easy to overlook how incredible we humans are at just about everything (no sarcasm), I present to you ‘People Are Awesome’. Watch it and tell me you don’t agree.
Have a good weekend, everyone.
