Link roundup

1. Tips for surviving a layoff.

2. "This compilation of screen grabs from various ad agencies’ Web sites as seen on the iPhone shows how slow the advertising industry has been to respond to the advent of a Flash-less environment. A disproportionately large number of them are broken due to the unavailability of Flash, and almost all of them show a poor regard for graceful degradation."

3. "Neck pillows are great if you can sleep with your head perfectly held in place. If you tend to nod forward while sleeping in a seated position, turn the neck pillow around to support your chin."

*Buy travel pillows at Amazon.

Unicorn cat (link roundup)

Unicorn cat via these sites.

And a few more links:

1. Infinitely more interesting than the show - - a production manager on Deadliest Catch is wanted for selling drugs and is believed to be hiding in California. (I wish every episode of the show had a little bit of this inserted.)

2. How to fit items for a ten day trip in a carry on.

3. Watch the first (excellent and scary) 10 minutes of Alan Wake. And here's a roundup of reviews.

Superjew t-shirt (link roundup)

Superman logo/Star of David mashup t-shirt (worn by Seth Rogen in Funny People) on sale here.

2. Great photo of a guy diving near a waterfall.

3. Most Traveled Man.com is a site that allows people to track how many of the world's "762 countries, territories, autonomous regions, enclaves, geographically separated island groups, and major states and provinces" they've visited.

Funny (and probably insulting) travel posters

Amusing advertisements for the Travel Book Shop by Wirz/BBDO Switzerland show the dangers of traveling without doing a bit of research. Via.

*Previously: Travel Iron levels Tokyo, Rome, and Paris.

*Buy vintage travel posters at eBay

ETA Travel Iron levels Rome, Tokyo, and Paris

These print ads by Kaspen Prague certainly make the ETA Travel Iron seem exciting. Of course, my idea of travel is staying at a hotel room that includes an iron. Via.

*Previously: Nike ad features Poseidon, rock spiders, and smog monsters.

*Buy toy robots at eBay.
