A Link and a Smile: 19 of this Week’s Best Links
What you are about to read is an assortment of links that the VaynerMedia office found this week – some are tech, some are sports, some are funny, some are random, but all of the links are interesting… or so we think!
AJ Vaynerchuk: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. Insanity.
Neil Sarkar: Hunter and Farmer Approach to ADD/ADHD. Hunter or Farmer, which one are you? They’re both equally important groups for society to function properly.

Great links, I particularly like the tutorial on controlling your email with three folders, I’m going to try it out and see how it works out for me. If it works out it’ll be going in my guide to an empty inbox on my blog.
The color picker thing didn’t work that well for me. It was gorgeous flash, but it had some buggy code in there I think … like the program running it lol.
Nice list, be careful you don’t get pegged as a link farm, You’ve actually got 2 links for each link here, so 38. The general rule of thumb is stay under 100/page. Just a heads up.
