Hi Mel:
Thanks for the interesting links!
My favorite was the first one of ‘how to write blog post headlines’ since this is something I’m currently struggling with 😛
Have a great weekend ♥.
Hope it helped, Cori! 🙂
There are so many links here that I will be clicking on and reading this evening. Thanks for filling up my Friday night! haha
Awesome! Hope you enjoyed them, Stacia! 🙂
Introvert stuff is my favorite, I think I should make a journal of all the cool stuff I find. That link is perfect.
You should! 🙂
I saw the heart of an introvert on my facebook newsfeed a few weeks ago, and I love it! Also, I read the article about things that organized people do… and I found it interesting. I though a lot of the things were counterintuitive, or just seemed more complicated, but maybe they would work better. I should try some of them… interesting articles! 🙂
haha very true!
Noo cannot believe twitter will have the same tragic turn that Facebook had haha
These links look really interesting 🙂 xx

I really liked the article on exes and social media – SO TRUE! It really is like not even really breaking up with someone nowadays, because even after a breakup a person is still SO accessible.
Yeah, so interesting and pretty weird huh!

Thanks for sharing these, Melyssa! I loved the introvert map– so creative! And I’m not loving the supposed future of Twitter, but we’ll see! And wow, I’m currently watching Bri’s presentation. So interesting! I love her site! I hope you have a great weekend 🙂
Hope you had a great one, too, Gina! 🙂
Some very interesting reads : really fascinated by the Japan parenting post! Kind of disturbed by the escaping exes post (that is not my reality at all), and loved the ‘how to be a grown ass woman in relationship’ very true and very cool! 🙂
Glad you enjoyed them! I hope you had a good weekend, Camila 🙂
Great collection of links! I loved the introverts map and the article about time moving quickly. I also really enjoyed the parenting in Japan post. I saved it so that I can look at the other posts that she linked at the bottom of that one another time.
Glad you liked them! I also spent a lot of time perusing those other links at the bottom — so much interesting stuff!
The Playboy article was so insightful, you’re totally right!! We’ve always been cautioned as to what we put on the internet and how we present ourselves, but phone hacking takes things to a whole new level. Disgusting.
Couldn’t agree more!
