I see a lot of great articles, blog posts & videos during the week and rather than just retweeting them or posting them in our LinkedIn group, I thought I'd round up the most interesting ones for you here too – aren't I nice?

Here's one of my favourite episodes of 99% Invisible, a great podcast about design, objects, history & architecture.
This episode is about micro nations, particularly the excellent story of one very close to UK shores – The Principality of Sealand. Nothing to do with work or HR, but interesting nevertheless, and it gives you some handy trivia to talk about in the office kitchen!
