Skyscraping for 70 Years
Man, businessweek.com is the sleeper news site of the year. They consistently have cool stuff. For instance: Seven Decades of Skyscrapers, an article (and more importantly, slideshow) about the work of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Check out slide four, the solar telescope. Slide 10 looks to be pretty hot as well.

I've enjoyed some of the links you've highlighted, too, Robin. But don't you also think it's one of the ugliest websites around?
Yes, definitely -- in particular, the flow of the stories is weird. They really have no qualms about dropping an ad in there just as you're getting going.
