Episode 15: Poe-litical Doldrums
theamericandean: In this slightly more freeform episode, the smartest guys in the room discuss what they expect in the Presidential race; including wedge issues and appeals to different demographics.

tumblr + Pinterest = awesomer
gjmueller: Random thought about tumblr: I’d like tumblr to buy pinterest and integrate the pinboards into likeboards making it easier to manage and share my likes. I have pinterest but never use it unless I’m creating a board to share with someone on a specific task/idea. I like tens of thousands of tumblr posts but have no way of organizing my “stash”, which can be frustrating… Can we pleas...

Notes on the NDAA hearings in New York →
A pretty long read but quite interesting and unsettling. I definitely don’t support Obama, but I can’t imagine a modern president that wouldn’t want the powers of the NDAA at his disposal.

kateoplis: “Sometime last year computers at the U.S. Social Security Administration were hacked and the identities of millions of Americans were compromised. What, you didn’t hear about that?

Use your Amazon wishlist to check for books at... →
@Dvoiss created a really cool little tool that will take your books in your Amazon wishlist and search them in CPL’s database. Only catch is that they have to be in a public wishlist (which is not the default for Amazon). This got picked up by the Onion AV Club and I saw it the Chicago subreddit.
