Various Tuesday links

I have not been well again today so have not had any energy to post anything constructive. Here’s what some other people have been saying:

• Poetry in motion, from velorution
  Video of cyclists speeded up in Cambridge. I’ve been meaning to link to the Velorution blog for ages. It is a shop in central London that has the coolest of bicycles. Have a click around the site and you will see what I mean.

• Heaven in Ordinary, a talk by John Davies
  John doing another talk on the Greenbelt Festival theme for this year. Sit down and read it with a cup of tea.

• Conference Of Interestingness from the blog of russell davies

  I’m hoping to find fascinating people and to just ask them to speak about something they care about. I want to replicate the experience of clicking from one really good blog to another, ranging across sciences, arts, musics, jokes and whatever. There will be 20 minute slots and 3 minute slots. Some people will play music or sing. And some people who can’t be there will be asked to send three minute videos. Perhaps. I reckon we can squeeze a lot of interestingness into a day. And then have a party afterwards.

• A rant from The ad lib school of parenting
  Involves hospitals not passing on records etc. I’d be angry too.

• Rummaging In Your Rubbish (from Echo)
  They are emplying people to poke around in our garbage. They won’t find anything interesting in our rubbish. Most of ours is just stuff we throw away.
