Interesting Links 4.3.11

By on April 4, 2011 in Links 'O The Day

Linka I found interesting enough to share today:

  • The LAPD joins agencies statewide tomorrow (April 4) in beginning zero-tolerance enforcement of laws prohibiting distracted driving. That menas no texting while driving and no taking while driving (unless you’re using a hands-free device). Think abou it folks. There’s NOTHING so important it can’t wait until you’re safely parked. No conversation or SMS is worth your life (or anyone else’s).
  • An Etsy seller makes clever use of the Apple logo in these skins for iPhones, iPads and MacBooks.
  • My friend Alison Byrne Fields tweeted this link to a New York Times story about Gregory Peck replica eyeglass frames. They’re lovely, and some of the proceeds go to charity, but they’re also pricey ($315). I responded with a suggestion for similar frames by Warby Parker ($95, including the prescription), a company I learned about thanks to my son.
  • Jay Siegan, owner of San Francisco’s Red Devil Lounge, said on Twitter “Sometimes I just want to open a store so i can give it a kick-ass name. This is a pure victory!” in reference to this photo. I agree!
  • My friend @Cliff *before* his last training run 4 next wk’s Paris Marathon.http://t.co/Z3KROvX. Support him & Medecins Sans Frontieres: http://t.co/WqRGc0D.

Links of the Day – 4.2.11

By on April 2, 2011 in Links 'O The Day

Here’s what I found notable today:

  • Proud to note that a Smith College alumna is one of the 2011 Pipeline Fellows, as reported by Tech Crunch.  Pipeline is a New York-based fund that wants to increase the number of women angel investors and social media entrepreneurs in the U.S.
  • The incredibly useful LifeHacker shared a timely article from GOOD, Ten Stress Busters That Make You Look Better. I suspect doing even a few of the ten would make one happier and healthier.
  • My friend, the actor and artist Jason Antoon, recommended two sources for earthquake prep kids, Quake Kare and EssentialPacks. I’ve got Quake Kare kits in each of our cars. Do it now.
  • Another friend, Roberto Rogness (of the superb Santa Monica shop Wine Expo) let me know about this rather amazing Brazilian Nissan commercial. You don’t need to speak Portugese to understand it, but the Jalopnik article explains it just in case.
