  • DrFaustusAU’s deviantART Gallery
    “Sanity-destroying cosmic horror can be hard to wrap your head around, so Deviant Artist DrFaustusAu has begun rejiggering H.P. Lovecraft’s classic short story as Dr. Seuss book. Now, children of all ages can learn about he who slumbers in his house at R’lyeh.” c/o io9.com
  • What Everyone Is Too Polite to Say About Steve Jobs
    “Apple’s devices have connected us to a world of information. But they don’t permit a full expression of ideas. Indeed, the people Apple supposedly serves — “the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers” — have been particularly put out by Jobs’ lockdown. That America’s most admired company has followed such an un-American path, and imposed centralized restrictions typical of the companies it once mocked, is deeply disturbing.” c/o @doctorow
  • Open Offices Reduce Productivity and Increase Stress
    “My own experience is in line with this study. The open offices I’ve worked in—and some were otherwise great places to work—usually lead to distraction, decreased productivity, and low morale in myself and the people I’ve worked with.” c/o amitgupta.com
