I’ve always thought it’d be fun to have one post a week in which I posted links to cool stuff I saw and read online that week. But, I’ve learned to never promise anything on a regular basis on this blog because, let’s face it, I sometimes go a month without posting. I’m not the most reliable when it comes to this blogging thing. This list is truly RANDOM. The only common denominator is that I find this stuff interesting.
- Apple began taking orders for the iPad on Friday. It’s estimated that 120,000 Apple iPads were pre-ordered in one day. I think I’ll probably end up with one, but I’m waiting until the first ones are received…
- And in other Apple-related news, a recent survey indicates that 75% of people have a totally inappropriate relationship with their iPhones. I definitely fall within that 75%. I go to bed with the frickin’ thing, for Pete’s sake!
- A Korean man married a pillow that has an image of some anime character on it. He dressed it in a wedding dress and everything. He apparently takes it, or her, everywhere he goes. Yeah, because that’s totally sane.
- My most favorite internet find this week was a hilarious post of 45 Redneck Lifestyle photos. Brings out some serious LOLs.
- I love Seth Godin. He usually has something good to say everyday, but some days are better than others. I loved his post this week entitled “You Rock”. I highly recommend subscribing to his blog. His posts are always short, but meaningful.
- Mom-101 wrote a great post in response to a recent (snarky) article about “mommy bloggers” in the NYT Styles section. Don’t only read the post, but read the couple hundred comments. It’s really fired up a lot of women…in a good way if you ask me.
- Best ad I saw this week was sent to me by my husband. I swear that whoever worked on it is spying on him and me. If your husband plays golf, you can relate. Click here to see it and get a chuckle.
- My favorite song this past week was Giving Up the Gun by Vampire Weekend. I’ve embedded it below for your easy viewing pleasure.
- Also, per my last post, please head over to Kidlee.com and sign up using invite code HIPMOM. You’ll love it. It’s a great way to leverage technology to record all of the wonderful things your kids say and do. Think of it as a journal by you for them.
Got any cool links or things to add? Leave your nuggets of info in the comments section. Thanks and have a great week!

I love Seth Godin too. I too like that his post are usually short, but interesting and sometime fargin’ brilliant Sometime I wonder how he does it day after day. I also read and LOVE Mom 101′s response to the whole “Mommy Bloggers” tissy from the NYT article. I like Ciaran’s post the best. If you didn’t read it, you should. It was perfect.
