Links Worth Checking Out 1-15-07
« on: December 11, 2014, 10:27:49 AM »
More interesting links for you guys:

    The Man Who Shook Up Vegas - It’s all in the numbers… pretty darn cool, even if you don’t gamble.
    Canadian Spy Coins in Your Pocket? - This is bizarre!  Coins with location tracking capabilities.
    iPhone Keynote Address by Steve Jobs - The iPhone intro video is worth a look.  Angel wants one.  I want one.  You will too.  Check out this ”hands-on” review from Gizmodo, this one from NY Times, or this CBS demo video on YouTube.
    The Chopstick Test - You better study your chopstick etiquette if you want to get into a school in Japan.
    When Buying a Diamond Starts with a Mouse - An intersting article about online diamond sales.  They spend a great deal of time discussing the online diamond merchant Blue Nile.  While I didn’t buy Angel’s engagment ring from these guys, I did use their site for about 85% of my research on diamonds, and also a basis for the price point when I was browsing the diamond exchange stores in NYC.  If you find yourself preparing for the next step with your significant other, Blue Nile is a great place to start unraveling the engagement ring mystery.
    Google is the Best Workplace - This company doesn’t cease to amaze me.  Free gourmet meals, dry cleaning, flex schedules… 
    You are The Person of 2006 - This is old news.  But, for those who haven’t read this short editorial, it’s worth a quick read.
