Twitter Link Roundup #160 ? Small Business, Social Media, Design ...

chimera

Every day on the crowdSPRING Twitter account and on my own Twitter account, I post links to posts or videos I enjoyed reading or viewing. These posts and videos are about logo design, web design, startups, entrepreneurship, small business, leadership, social media, marketing, and more! Here are some of the links that I?ve liked and shared this past week!

The image above shows a Chimera monkey, created by combining up to six distinct embryos from rhesus monkeys. The embryos were combined to help scientists understand the role that specific genes play in embryonic development. You can find this, and 26 other science fictions that became science facts in 2012, in the Other section below.
