Link Karma – 11 February 2007

Link Karma is a new section of The Positivity Blog where I list some good reading I´ve stumbled upon during the last few days (or weeks, depending on how much browsing and reading I do).

The articles I link to will most often have something to do with personal development and lifehacks (naturally…) but won´t just be limited to ones I´ve found on blogs.

I´ll also try to include technology that may change our lives in the coming years and personal growth stuff that I don´t know that much about myself but am curious about.

If you have a tip about something great you read, send me an email to henrik at positivityblog.com. Thanks and enjoy this batch of articles!

• Why you can´t tickle yourself – I have wondered about this for years. Since this article became pretty popular during the week I guess I´m not the only one.

• Where to hide your money – Also something I think most of us have wondered about. A former burglar explains what to do at Personal Finance Advice.

• Don´t ask employees to be passionate about the company – A very interesting post by Kathy Sierra with a short test to see if someone is passionate about their work (rather than their company).

• The Perfect Human – Fascinating Wired article about fabulous marathon man Dean Karnazes who ran 50 marathons in 50 days. Amazing guy and a cool story with an unexpected, drunk beginning. Also, be sure to check out the series The Science of Human Enhancement and The Wired Enhance-athon that this article is included in. You´ll find those links at the top-right corner of the article.

• Where to start with the stock market? – J.D at Get Rich Slowly asks his readers and gets a lot of helpful comments. A lot of seemingly sound advice for someone like me and Jono in the article who are interested in diving into stock investing. Also, don´t miss your chance to win a jar of pickled eggs by naming the date and time when J.D will receive his 100 000^th piece of spam.
