Weekly inspiration #24: The ABC of inspirational links

February 21st, 2010 by Nico Luchsinger

What kind of online content do people enjoy sharing most? Researchers who have analyzed the New York Times’ list of most e-mailed articles over the course of six months have found that it’s the news that inspires awe that is shared the most. We can certainly relate to that – here at Sandbox, we love sharing inspirational and amazing stuff too, which is why we have posted a (hopefully) inspiring link on Twitter every morning (well, almost every morning) since last September. And just in case you missed them, here are some of the best links again – in alphabetical order:
