Hair

Stuff I found while looking around

| September 11, 2013

I am headed to San Francisco for three days of meetings and thought I’d get in this week’s link roundup before I left. I will hopefully be able to update some photos while I’m there. (Oh look. There’s a bridge outside a window in this conference room. And pretty finger food. And fancy carpet tiles. Would you look at the faucets in this restroom? And these pens? Look at these pens.) Otherwise, I’ll see you when I return.
