Linkology: The Best of the Internet for 1/22/10

Linkology: The Best of the Internet for 1/22/10

How not to say what you mean in business.

Why some comedy writers aren’t laughing at Jay Leno.

Speaking of Leno, I’ve seen this all over the place lately, making its way around the ‘tubes.

Baratunde Thurston speculates how MLK Jr. might have used Twitter. (“Who is Chuck Norris, and why is everyone tweeting about him?”)

Interesting invitation design for next Wednesday’s Apple announcement.  In particular, it’s curious how it emphasizes color.  The only thing keeping me back from getting a Kindle is the lack of color and a more sophisticated presentation layer.  Give me OLED color, good resolution, top-grade typography and I’ll read all my media on the device.

Probably not the kind of flattering he’s looking for.

The sound design of Transformers 2.

Andreas Bick, a sound artist and composer living in Berlin, shows us that ice cracking and shifting sounds just like blaster fire in Star Wars.

Have a great weekend, everyone.
