How to be interesting (forbes.com)

Jessica Hagy also runs http://thisisindexed.com/, using graphs to express her often insightful humour.

The venn diagrams work better if you read them as "and" rather than "things that are members of both sets". (Apologies for the nitpick.)

How many of those ten were just, "don't hesitate to do something different" in different words? Well, I guess a top ten list containing only five unique items is...different.

The 'book' Wreck this journal can be a nice start for people who are having difficulties doing something different, by destroying the book for instance: http://www.wreckthisjournal.com/

I think there should be less focus on 'how to be in interesting' for others, and more focus on 'how to stimulate your interests and make life more interesting for yourself'

Kind of inspiring. Maybe I'll tell more people about what I'm actually building when I'm on my laptop all night after work.

This assumes we're all playing to the crowd around us.

IMHO, Be yourself and be comfortable with yourself.
