This caught my eye as unique - if a little graphics heavy.

Oddly this was a list with no links.

Perhaps a case of less is more.

I've noticed a few great lists from KissMetrics.

Writing the day after Steve Jobs announced his resignation from Apple, Co.Design editor Cliff Kuang identifies what made the innovator special: his ability to look at tech as a user rather than as a line manager. When company executives talk strategy, the question, whether spoken or implicit, invariably is, How can we be more like Apple?

What was the best of 2011’s blog posts? It’s a difficult question since, as Lisa Gerber points out, a lot depends on what’s happening at the time and what stands out on a particular subject. Further, take my word for it, writing strong, compelling content on a regular basis is hard work.
