Link Anthology 7/22/09, the Uncontroversial Edition
* shwetha_narayan's wonderful poem " Apsara" is now up at Goblin Fruit for the summer. First link should be permanent, second is where you can read the poem right now (ETA: may also be permanent, and better formatted, if it goes in the archive).
* Dylan Thomas's "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night," with audio--perhaps the most famous English-language villanelle.
* Via yhlee, The Periodic Table of Typefaces.
* Geeky article about Lenovo's new keyboard design. Nothing like Dvorak's complete overhaul, just some interesting usability tweaks. I will say this: I love my caps lock key for easily marking out book titles. I really want a big delete key, though... So annoying on this laptop to sloooowly reach up to hit it in the corner.
* Color illusion!
* Notable Unshelved strip.
* Isaiah 55:12--"...and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."
* A compendium of beautiful--no, gorgeous--libraries.
