Note: This site is currently "Under construction". I'm migrating to a new version of my site building software. Lots of things are in a state of disrepair as a result (for example, footnote links aren't working). It's all part of the process of building in public. Most things should still be readable though.

Four Links for April 24 2011

How to kill an idea][1] - (by [Scott Campbell][2]) - I saw this on one site and had to do a google image search and then jump through a few other sites before I found the original artist. We should all get better at citing things.

2. [See Something? Cite Something.][3] - Related to the first link. A flowchart about citing the work of others.

3. [Historically Hardcore][4] - How a fake campaign for the Smithsonian took off.

4. [Why nose grease kills the foam in your beer/coke][5] - If you've never seen the trick it's fascinating to watch. Gross, but fascinating.
