Noupe’s Favorites 43/2013: The Best Links of the Week
If you follow our accounts in the various social networks out and about, you're certainly aware that we are posting loads of additional content there. Be it links to freebies, tutorials, interesting articles or other things worth mentioning. We dig up a lot in the widths and depths of the web. And we do actually share content, that hasn't been created by our own team. These days we got a friendly email by one of our dear readers, asking us to not only publish these additionals in the social networks as this reader as well as many others are refusing to get engaged in socializing. In times of Prism and Tempora we can perfectly understand this approach. So we decided to curate the best links of each past week into one weekly article, starting today. Here you go...
The best Links of the Week from 19th to 25th of October 2013
If you don't already do, not because you don't want to, but just because you didn't know, make sure to follow us on Twitter (@NoupeMag), Facebook and Google+.
