Heya,
This is a great issue for anyone who has ever wondered what Mark Zuckerberg would look like as a topless cybernetic spider. You can thank Beeple over at tumblr for bringing it to us. His page alone is worth at least four million dollars.
In other links, I found another great newsletter, Panda, for you to check out. We've got free animations and satanic HTML in my first "coding of evil" collection.
If that's not enough, a bunch of wonderful WordPress links, future predictions, and a fun Kanban game.
Enjoy,
Chris
đ¸ī¸ The Cool Side of the Web
If you long for a particular era of internet creativity, then this tumblr is the shortest trip there. đ¨
It is a collection of digital images combining the best of pop culture with dystopian themes. You will be particularly happy to see that Buzz Lightyear figures prominently in this eclectic mix.
There are a lot of images to get through, so I have picked my favorites for you:
Not only is "Follow the Blue Ball" superb life advice, but it is also a hypnotic chain reaction video from Creezy.
I think the real trick is how to ger over 163k subscribers as a young YouTuber without a single obnoxious "challenge" video.
This blog shows you why Firefox is the superior browser and how to make the most of its security features. đĻ
Using Firefox gives you peace of mind and keeps you away from the advertising companies constantly following you around, profiling you and tempting you to purchase their products.
âī¸ Tools and Resources
HTMHell - Markup from hell is not a learning site. đš
It is a site that collects the worst code from all over the internet collected. We need to be responsible with this one and not treat it as a resource.

đŽ Fun & Games
DevShop is a very simple game which owes me about five hours of producitvity. đšī¸
"It's a kind of 'lemonade stand' game, but instead of buying lemons đ and making lemonade đš, you hire developers/testers and business analysts, and complete tasks on a kanban board."
