RIP: Jerry Nelson

We lost one of the greats of Sesame Street.

Infosthetics, SHIELD and Iron Man

There's a linkage theme connecting these sites: graphic design, particularly for infographics and user interfaces.

These four links contain a lot of stuff that I wish had been included in The Art of the Avengers. Not sure how it didn't happen, but the fact that it's available to look at via these URLs is a good thing.

Notes from Around Ottawa

Two items of recent interest:

Eric Darwin notes some of what was going on in the near west side neighbourhoods - from Tunney's Pasture to Dow's Lake - in 1967. I'm considering adding his feed to my friendlist here.

UrbSite notes some of the archeological finds coming out of Lebreton Flats and the need for a proper city-focused museum.

Anyone found anything of interest about their own neighbourhoods?
