How to Tell You Have a Crush
Unfortunately, the entries in the guest bar at Boing Boing lack permalinks, but while it lasts, I'll call your attention to this, posted and co-written by the hardest working guest blogger on the web, Xeni Jardin:

=v= I've managed to confuse Google Images a bit with my Humans page. It's basically an alphabetical list of friends and acquaintances with some photos tossed in.
