Here's my favourites from this week, curated by Fraggl:
- Follow the frog (above) is a wonderfully executed ad for The Rainforest Alliance and well worth a watch
- A new study by researchers at the University of California, Yale, and Facebook has found that moods can spread virally through social media ("If New York City’s rain-induced pathos could affect users in New Mexico, it would say something remarkable about the power of online emotional contagion"). Reminds me a lot of this study on the dynamic spread of happiness in a large social network, by Nicholas Christakis.
- This is a great story about the small brick-shaped device that could help get millions of Africans online.
- An interesting project from Nesta to better understand the shape and shades of the startup landscape in the UK, and also from Nesta, an excellent list of tools to trigger and support social innovation
