  1. Guardian Unlimited Books | Review | Review: The Impact of Inequality by Richard G Wilkinson

    Sounds interesting - equality matters more in a society than the absolute level of wealth.

  2. MacBreakZ - Your Personal Ergonomic Assistant - RSI prevention and recovery - Macintosh

    I’m giving this a go, in an effort to prevent my shoulders seizing up. Good, although the app feels a bit old fashioned.

    Some handy tips about coding, systems and organising companies. (via Yoz)

  10. Tom Mangan’s Fun With Google Maps

    Especially the Space Shuttle tracking, and some Javascript for laying other images on top of Google Maps. (via Haddock)

  11. Pepys’ Diary: In-depth articles

    We just started a new section of the Pepys’ Diary site. Hopefully there will be more lengthy articles to come…

  12. BBC News | Technology | Uproar grows over GTA sex scenes

    Sex scenes require a *higher* rating than blasting innocent people with a variety of weapons!? Weird Americans. (via Anne Galloway)

  13. The economics of movie popcorn pricing (kottke.org)

    See my two comments… so I don’t lose those links again (the rest of the page is by weird popcorn-eating people).

  14. Josh Kaufman: Inside My Bald Head: The Personal MBA 40

    I love stuff like this, The Books You Must Read for any particular field. Business, in this case. (via Kottke)

  15. Super simple clearing floats - Anne’s Weblog about Markup & Style

    A remarkably non-hacky way to get containing divs to expand to the full depth of their floated descendants (ie, goodbye “clear:both” elements?). (via Tim)

    May give it a whirl sometime. (via Yoz again)

  23. Wage Slaves from 1UP.COM

    I’m always amazed by this kind of stuff: people paid peanuts in Asia to earn money in computer games (via Yoz).

  24. Van Gogh - Starry Night - Gigapixel Image - Photomosaic

    Wow, that is impressive. Haven’t seen a photomosaic that detailed before.
