Links Round Up for 7/18/10

I don’t really do link round ups all that often, but I’ve resolved to do them more often (I’m going to try for once a week, but don’t hold me to it). I post a lot of links throughout the week so I figured I’d post the best ones on Sundays. First(ish) one- here goes!

  • Students that Freelance: A blog targeting students interested in freelancing that was started by Amber Turner, a friend I met over at Freelance Switch. She’s started a blog I’ve wanted to start for a while and she’s doing a great job! If you fit the bill for either student or freelancer (or both!) definitely head over that and see what she has to say.
  • Fighting with Teens: a Copy Right Story: Songwriter Jason Robert Brown posts an argument he had with a teenager over why you’re not supposed to distribute other people’s work for free without permission. Ah, I remember when I was a teenager and knew everything.
  • Ask FreelanceSwitch #15: The good people over at FreelanceSwitch tell us about write-offs and alternatives to cold calls- my most and least favorite things about freelancing, respectively (OK, they aren’t my most favorite, but write-offs are nice)!
  • Star Wars Subway Car (video): The opening scene of Star Wars: A New Hope reenacted on a subway car by an improv group. This deeply appeals to my nerdy side.
  • What Is The Last Thing You Do Before You Launch A Website?: I freak out. This gives you the benefits and implications of some of the more common prelaunch rituals.
  • Apple’s iPhone 4 Antenna Press Conference: Jobs comments on what he dubs “Antennagate” (how clever). My thoughts are posted here.
  • RIM’s Reaction to iPhone Antenna Conference: I found this statement to be considerably better than the press conference held by Apple. Fanboys be damned.
