eveglass1. Lifestyle design for the rest of us -- an interesting look at "lifestyle design," showing that it doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing experience, as the 4 Hour Workweek might have you believe. (@ Pick the Brain)
2. A bunch of rocks (xkcd comic) -- just a cute comic. Be sure to read all the way to the bottom.
3. You "auto" watch (1 minute video) -- the PhD in cake making goes to... these guys. Trust me. If you really like it, check out the 5-minute video. (@ Cake Wrecks)
4. The clock of the long now and where to put it (TED talk video) -- an inspiring and beautiful talk based around the idea of finding a home for the "clock of the long now," which is meant to last 10,000 years.
5. Christmas inspiration from a stick and a cardboard box -- did you know that the stick has just been inducted into the toy hall of fame? Yeah, me neither. (@ The Simple Dollar)
6. Expect change -- a fast but poignant read. Pop quiz: if you were to invest your monumental wealth (just go with me on this one) in a highly secure industry, one that would ensure your grandchildren would be as rich as you, what would it be? (@ Productivity 501)
7. Bookkeeping and you: personal finance propaganda from 1947 (10-minute video) -- here's a blast from the past: an instructional video from the '40s. Just good, clean fun. Oh, and misogyny. (@ Get Rich Slowly)
