SEED Conference: Sketchnotes 15-16 (via Mike Rohde) – These notes, taken by Mike Rohde at the recent SEED Conference, are some of the coolest I have ever seen. So beautiful and filled with big ideas, one feels compelled to review them. Click on the picture and take a look at the rest of the set. Truly fantastic. If I had even a quarter of this guy’s talent I would so do this.
The full book online. Cool find. I am considering doing another “week with Ubuntu” soon.

It would be very anti meta if I did not mention that Tumblr, the engine that runs The Random Post, received a huge upgrade today. I must say, I am very inpressed. I hope to take advantage of many of the new features soon. Stay tuned.

Information R/evolution (via mwesch) : Another great short by Michael Wesch. This time, he explores categorization in the age of the internet. Bottom line, everything is miscellaneous.
Rands In Repose: The Gel Dilemma
Wow, and I thought I was a little obsesive over my choice of Pens. Great read, especially if you are a gel pen fan. (via DF)
Top Gear – Perodua Kelisa (via earlku): Top Gear is a British show about cars. These guys love cars. So much so, that they take the bad ones to task in amusing ways. They hurt because they love. Great show and I highly recommend looking up more clips on You Tube.
Roy was big for his breed, kind of dopey but very lovable. If Roy were a human, he would have been a laborer, like a handyman. Stocky, friendly and his pants just barely covering his bum. He would spend more time sitting around and shooting the breeze with you than doing the job at hand but there would be no way you could get mad at him because he would be so lovable. You would just chalk it up to Roy being Roy.
Roy liked to lick soft things, like stuffed animals, rugs and furniture. Once he started he would do this for hours. Licking compulsively as if unable to stop. Roy could not, given this fact, figure out why the cats did not want to play with him. When Roy slept, he would snore loudly and, every once in a while, he would whimper and twitch, obviously having a good dream, probably about licking the cats.
In the last few months Roy had a tough time. He was unable to walk, he lost control over his functions, his hearing was going and he seemed very frustrated and confused. We had to let Roy go to sleep today. I hope he is somewhere peaceful and licking cats.
