1. We have Muppet love (no, not that way). Check out the Best Muppet Show Beatle Covers. (via Open Culture)
2. Maybe “brainstorming” the way we do it - lots of people in a room talking - doesn’t really work that well. Check out the idea of “brainwriting” a technique used by IDEO - an amazing design and innovation firm. (via Innovative Interactivity)

4. Google Doodles! Who doesn’t love Google Doodles?? (via Flavorwire)
5. I love image search. I probably posted this link ages ago, but it should be revisted. Brainpickings 7 Image Search Tools That Will Change Your Life (total over-promise, but it will still be cool).
