Link Party: 11/2-11/6

Earlier this week, I heard Ira Glass on This American Life use the word "janky." I didn't think my life could be any more complete. However, I heard Ina Garten in the flesh say "Oh, shit" and now my life is truly, truly complete.
Earlier this week, I heard Ira Glass on This American Life use the word “janky.” I didn’t think my life could be any more complete. However, I heard Ina Garten in the flesh say “Oh, shit” and now my life is truly, truly complete.

Here’s what I read this week:

1. A deeper and comparative look at Humans of New York. (For the record, I’ve never been a big fan of HONY.)

2. The Tetris effect is exactly why I can’t play puzzle games on my phone anymore.

3. Dorms for grownups, in the vein of coworking. (This sounds uncomfortable.)

4. I wish I had written this great story about Pantone.

5. The Amazon bookstore sounds like a dismal experience for the customer, but it’s fascinating from a business perspective.

And a bonus: I loved these unearthed photos of Madonna, Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and more stars of the 1980s.

Have a great weekend.
