Grab Bag: Your Five Links of the Week

Posted in: Website Links

  1. http://tinyurl.com/39vg78 - Seven very, very common grammatical mistakes. If your job requires you to regularly communicate via email, letters, Facebook, etc., I suggest you take at least a cursory glance at this post.
  2. www.pachube.com – Straight from the site summary description at the top of Pachube’s homepage, Pachube allows you to “store, share & discover realtime sensor, energy and environment data from objects, devices & buildings around the world. Pachube is a convenient, secure & scalable platform that helps you connect to & build the ‘internet of things’.”
  3. http://tinyurl.com/y9qn4l3 - This blog post offers ten suggestions for decluttering your digital life, from clearing out your email contacts list to cleaning up your hard drive.
  4. www.couchsurfing.org – A website dedicated to lowering the financial cost of exploration and giving more people the chance to become travelers. How does couchsurfing.com accomplish these hefty goals? By building and nurturing a “worldwide network for making connections between travelers and the local communities they visit.” You so very much *want* to call this a website for people looking to mooch free accommodations . . . but as you look around you’ll find there is so, so much more depth to this non-profit than initially meets the eye.
  5. http://tinyurl.com/yejxqha - If you’re looking for a chuckle, visit this link. You’ll find a great list of actual statements made by … children. Things like “I like those lines on your face,” “When I die I want to live with Jesus in his apartment,” and “Boy, your house smells funny. You should buy some air fresheners.”
