First of all, a fellow IconBuffet cohort created a great pin/badge site called Modest Messages, sporting emotes, favorite typefaces, interesting art and miscellaneous geekery. I requested the Georgia button, as well as the ^^; sweatdrop button, both of which he has printed. Everyone needs a sweatdrop emote button, do they not??

I’ve been all over the Intarweb in the past two days, so here’s a few things I found notable:

• Five situations when you shouldn’t go to graduate school — I think I’m guilty of that mindset, or at least, I was in the past. (This post and others further reinforce that I have got to read Penelope’s book.)
• Thinking and Driving — I’m afraid I’m an interface addict, as well. I don’t feel productive unless I’m interacting everywhere possible… which ain’t so good for the productivity, incidentally.
• Wall Murals @ HubbleSite — HubbleSite just won a Webby, which is awesome! :D These wall murals, however, are even more awesome. I’m hoping they offer more in future! I do wish it was in color, instead of black and white, but it’s very artistic as-is. I’m planning to do similar things myself, although my plan involves high-end giclée prints, not mosaic-style. ^^;
• Crayola Executive Pen @ ThinkGeek — Words cannot express how much I want one of these. Blue, preferably, though the black is nice as well.
• Oh, and Wordpress 2.2 is out. More upgrading for me-wee. I should just bite the bullet and install a non-customized theme here, upgrade. I miss auto-draft saving.
