Rob’s Links for the Week
Almost every day, Rob and I, via IM, will talk about an amazing range of different topics. Sometimes, I even have something that Rob isn’t already aware of, but mostly, he’s an extra layer of content processing that I’ve come to enjoy. In the last couple days, he’s had a Flash game, two animations, and an Alexa graph.
The Flash game was on one of his favourite blogs, ForgetFoo, which contains an amazing range of topics. The game did inspire Rob into an idea for his own Flash game, but I almost ignored the darn thing when I saw a link to this article. Ever since coming to Dyrand I’ve been more and more in-tune with security and other topics relating, and I couldn’t ignore someone who caused $38 billion dollars to be lost even though they had 2 layers of backup in place!
The two animations probably helped inspire Rob on his game idea, but they are both absolutely amazing, or as he put, inspiring. It’s a two-part setup, and can be viewed here and here.
Finally, the Alexa graph. Rob works for a company, Superb Internet Corporation, and has been since mid-November. The company recently released a new version of their site, and are really pushing forward. Not that Rob couldn’t be single handedly responsible, but I’m sure there are other factors at work in the trend. However, there has been a healthy jump in the companies traffic, and since Rob sent me a link recently, and this is about Rob’s links for the week, why not give his company a plug.
