- Dynamism.com - Next Generation Japanese Notebooks and Electronics - New-to-me geek gadget site, highlighting stuff not easily available in the US. Very fun.
- IGDA - Articles - Why Crunch Mode Doesn’t Work: 6 Lessons - “Productivity drops immediately upon starting overtime and continues to drop until, at approximately eight 60-hour weeks, the total work done is the same as what would have been done in eight 40-hour weeks.”
- NPR : GPS Goes Mainsteam - Your author would be one of those alluded-to persons who uses GPS as a “crutch.” I could get lost in an empty bathtub with two St. Bernards and a sherpa guide.
- THE PRAGMATICS OF HUMOR: Representing Communication - “Cleese…says, ‘I think any time I see a possibility of a misunderstanding, I jump on it.’” Cleese once brilliantly pointed out that Basil Fawlty wouldn’t be nearly as funny if there weren’t people standing around watching him make a fool of himself.
- Bacon Cheese Baconburger - “You may think you’ve done a lot of strange things in your life, but until you’ve put slices of raw bacon into a food processor at 10:30pm, you really haven’t even scratched the surface of strange.” [via MeFi]
- The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks - I’m a proud “admin” for a “related” but “unallied” Flickr “group” that I “like a lot” called “Quotation Mark” Abuse. (thanks, mathowie)
