** The Curious Corner #37
A big welcome to all our new subscribers, hi there!
Although it may look like this months list would be a bit shorter then usual, I have a surprise for you! At the last Permanent Beta Day (http://www.meetup.com/PermanentBeta) I gave a live-session of The Curious Corner. The video (https://vimeo.com/193519800) is very experimental and in dutch, shot by Daan from Videologic (http://videologic.nl/) . If it’s just the urls you want, have a look at this one-tab (http://www.one-tab.com/page/j1xUf7KaTQyk4tT35S3kuw) !
P.S. One april’s fool joke included, can you find it? If you like the the Curious Corner, please help us further along by sharing this newsletter (it’s as easy as one click!
