Cookbook on twitter: recipes (serves 3-4) in 140 character. A linguistic topical challenge sometimes, which makes it all the better imo.
Hey, Hot Shot! - a photo competition / exposition project of some kind. I admit, I needed to keep the link around mostly only for the "Don't wreck my car." connection. (fannish injoke [sg:a], don't worry).
I got that link from this Kottke.org post, which I also want to keep around.
Via the great K as well: A story using only words from The Cat in the Hat. Glee.
For the hopeful, the future, or the busy: Brijit - to revisit later. And in a different category: Exploratree.
This seems worth mentionning also:

Scientists began sequencing DNA from all sorts of environments. After looking at human gut microflora, they learned that each individual has his or her own characteristic set of a thousand species. “These represent three million genes that you carry,” points out Kolter, “as compared to the estimated 18,000 genes of the human genome. So you are living and exchanging [metabolites] constantly with a diverse pool of some three million genes.” Microbiologists continue to find new taxonomic divisions of microbes far faster than they can figure out how to culture them.
Be a realdoll yourself! Fascinating, and so full of potential... *spins (plastic) yarns*
IM-IN-UR-WASTELANDS-RUINING-UR-LITERATURES - I know most intelligent people are tired of LOLstuff already, but I've been hooked on repetitive humor since forever, so that doesn't apply to me. Comes w/ bonus LOLCarroll in there, which totally made my day with glee:

In Los Angeles you can be standing next to another human being but you may as well be standing next to a geological formation. Whatever that thing is, it doesn't care about you. And you don't care about it. Get over it. You're alone in the world. Do something interesting.Onlinefandom.com:
Economists seem to be shocked that more than a million people have paid an average of somewhere around 4 pounds to download the Radiohead album.
Sex & marriage w/ artificial partners : "The question is not if this will happen, but when," Levy said. "I am convinced the answer is much earlier than you think."
Snooze or Lose / Less sleep for kids : more obesity, impaired cognitive abilities, deepset negativity. Oh, and TV-watching might not be the root of all evil, after all.
These have stayed open and "with me" for a while now. Right next to one another.

Power, Force, Overwhelmsion and Beauty by Bitchy Jones.
And today, this popped up, and perhaps it's a little, hm, to the side from the first links, in a related territory but not exactly in the same 'space'... Or perhaps like me you'll find that there's a lot these posts have in common : Me versus You; All of us versus The Man.
