Download these essential (and free!) inspiring eBooks, from this list compiled by the fine guys at creativetechs: The Word of Mouth Manual, Win Without Pitching, Time Management for Creative People… And Seth Godin’s The Idea Virus, apparently the most downloaded eBook of all time.

Yeah, I know, it’s slightly more entertaining to read about Lindsay Lohan not wearing a bra.

Loving the new Facebook, example 1

I was wondering what happened to the settings page on facebook that allowed you to tell which friends would populate your Newsfeed. Well, I found it by accident this morning. In your Newsfeed, when you rollover a topic, if you click on PREFERENCES, you get a drop-down menu that gives you the option to hear more or less about the poster, and to inform facebook if you like to see more of these (photos, wall posts, posted items…), or less. Awesome.

Now if you guys could just move back the Status Updates in the Newsfeed by default…

What about you, what do you love/hate about the new facebook layout?
