In what is becoming an ongoing feature, below are the things we’ve posted to Twitter recently. In reverse chronological order, just like Twitter… This may seem like a silly thing to do, but there are a couple reasons that make this seem worth doing: 1) After a couple of weeks, it’s pretty much impossible to find stuff you’ve posted to Twitter; and 2) There are a lot of cool links here, and we know not everybody uses Twitter, and we want to share them with everybody. Plus, call me old school (or self-important) but Twitter’s just too fucking ephemeral for my tastes. I like to have a permanent record of the stuff we’re talking about/reading/listening to/following…
