Tuesday Treasure Trove
- Hello, I’m Mr. Null. My Name Makes Me Invisible to Computers. That would be such a pain!
- Google’s New E-Mail Bot Writes Your Replies. Super skeptical of it’s accuracy/usefulness.
- All 300-plus languages spoken in American homes, and the number of people who speak them. Wow.
- How our housing choices make adult friendships more difficult.
- An unmanned restaurant where guests cook for themselves. Of *course* it’s in Amsterdam.
- Companies Can Make Consumers Pay For Writing Negative Reviews. Nonsense.
- Presented with a ‘not surprised’ emoji: Religious children are meaner than their secular counterparts, study finds.
- Presented without commentary, aside from a snigger: The Louder the Monkey, the Smaller Its Balls, Study Finds.
Things of Note:
I hope you got your fill of honeymoon recap pictures over the last two weeks, because tomorrow I have something even more awesome: wedding pictures! We finally got them back from our photographers, so I am going on a sharing frenzy. Stop by tomorrow if you want to see!
Other than that, just getting work stuff up and running and back to normal. I’ve got a couple of networking things this week, and a workshop. Then some fun plans for a friend’s birthday on Friday!
What are you up to this week?

Tuesday Treasure Trove
Since last week's Treasure Trove post seemed to be a hit (and was fun to put together), I decided to start a new blog series based on that idea. Every Tuesday, I'll put together a post of links to things I find cool/interesting/funny/thought-provoking, under the title...
Thrifty Finds
Some recent finds of mine from around the Austin vintage/thrift scene: (items from Blue Velvet, Prototype, and Flashback Vintage) Have you scored any great vintage or thrift items lately?
Shop My Closet
In going through my closet for things to bring to the clothes swap at the TxSC Blogger Conference, I realized I had quite a few things I don't wear anymore, whether because the sizing is no longer right, or my style has changed. And some of the pieces were just too...
