Links Round Up for 10/17/10
Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!
- $918,856 Federal Study: Bar Fights Tend to Happen in Darker, Dirtier Bars Frequented by Heavy Drinking, Less Agreeable People: Really groundbreaking stuff here. I’m glad nearly $1 Million of tax money funded what I could have told you from being in college.
- HTML5 Draws Concern Over Privacy Risks: I hate to break it to Ms. Vega, but anyone writing a website can store a lot more than they think, especially since we are constantly logged into social networks like Facebook. Also, I think this is mostly sensationalism since browsers implement the HTML5 spec.
- Jersey Shore RPG: Their final move is a great one.
- The Guy at Home in his Underwear: Really cool online/social media campaign to raise money for a man who has testicular cancer.
Some cool purchases I made this week: Bit Monsters by Simple Bits and Envato’s WordPress Pack ($250 worth of online/electronic goods for $30).
