allcreatures: One of 22 recently-born coatis is given a medical inspection by zoo keepers at Melbourne Zoo. The coati, which belongs to the larger raccoon family, was given a vaccination and micro-chipped to be easily identifiable in future. Picture: EPA/JULIAN SMITH (via Animal pictures of the week: 20 January 2012 - Telegraph) Yet another reason for me to go back to Australia.

journo-geekery: A List Apart: Articles: Building Twitter Bootstrap by Twitter’s Mark Otto: Made by myself and Jacob Thornton, Bootstrap is an open-source front-end toolkit created to help designers and developers quickly and efficiently build awesome stuff online. Our goal is to provide a refined, well-documented, and extensive library of flexible design components built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for others to build and innovate on. Today, it has grown to include dozens of components and has become the most popular project on GitHub with more than 13,000 watchers and 2,000 forks. Here we’ll shed some light on how and why Bootstrap was made, the processes used to create it, and how it has grown as a design system.

Orgs, Groups and Individuals Opposed to SOPA and PIPA

Posted on 18 January 2012

Very important that this still be circulated. Both The House and The Senate seem to have not given up on attempting to pass SOPA and PIPA. 

Please contact your Congress Critter.

New Course: Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and Public Policy

Posted on 10 January 2012

An excellent idea. Critics may moan about some of the reading being Brad & associates’ books but that would be totally missing the point, also known as “Haters Gonna Hate.” Techstars has a ton of information about entrepreneurship. No other place has as much real observation and participation with startups on both the sides of entrepreneurs and investors. Coupled with Brad, Jason and David’s track records inside and outside of Techstars, it is a researcher’s dream of an information store. The fact that Brad et al are willing to share this in a course format is sort of a backdoor glimpse into the world of Techstars.
