- Kickstarter » Projects
A commercial scale ransomware/fundraising site that'll work for any creative endeavour. Now to think of something people will want to give me money for…
- Daily Scans – Alan Moore's Glory proposal
Hadn't seen this before, and I can see approaches in this that clearly got recycled into Promethea, and Tom Strong and the other ABC stuff, which makes it all rather more interesting than just a document about an old Supreme character.
- Noisy Decent Graphics: "Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end."
God, I hate it when I discover that Margaret Thatcher said something I agree with.
- Noisy Decent Graphics: 7 ways to be a Graphic Design student online
Never mind "Graphic Design Student" – 7 ways to be a thinking human being. If you're not using a decent number of these services, well, OK, it hardly makes you a bad person, but still: most of these are basic tools for information management and digital note taking, and if you like to think of yourself as engaged with the world, and aren't using them, then you're probably doing something wrong. (Saying that: I keep trying to get some cognitive traction with tumblr, and have never really managed it. Might take another go soon. And it did take me rather longer than many of my friends to get twitter.)

Merlin Mann on content republication, and the right of the individual to control who gets to profit by their work.
- Tropo.com
API for a telephony service that can be used with any one of a variety of the usual web languages. Might be handy if I need to start building telephony functionality into web apps.
- Vice Magazine – THE DARK LORD OF LOGOS
This is the problem with my auto-linkblogging. I should have blogged this one first, so that you would have gotten to it second. Damn. OK, go look at the link below. Then come back and look at this one, because bands below really should have gotten in touch with this guy instead.
- The most unreadable metal logos – my 13 picks | Lady Omega : : Design, Art, Music
These are just stunning. As in I'm stunned that anyone thought "yes, that's what I want the logo for my band to be".

- Contrariwise: Literary Tattoos
I've got a few different quotes I'd consider having put on me, and this place might provide inspiration for design/context for them.
- Daring Fireball: Obsession Times Voice
I don't have time to read this in full right now, so I'm bookmarking it so I remember to read it at some point over the weekend.
- Steve Lambert » SelfControl
Mac App to lock email/internet away for periods of time. Killer feature: once started, it cannot be undone, unlike most other, similar apps. Handy for those days when you really have to just dig in and get something done.
- glycon: Big Numbers #3
Alan Moore's Big Numbers #3, made available on-line with his blessing. To say this is a big unexpected would be understating things a bit, but well done that man.

- Warren Ellis » The Patchwork Years
This is an idea I want to revisit. I know a number of very creative people, and see no reason why a bunch of us should not get together and make something clever.
- British Journal of Photography – Home Secretary green lights restrictions on photography
Very very angry now.
