- Chris Yokel has a lovely piece on Rabbit Room: Do not despair
- Great church historian Philip Jenkins on the Survivors and Pretenders of Byzantium

Topical Treasure
- Eminent historian of global Christianity Philip Jenkins has a great post on why historians need to understand how the British aristocracy worked (nuts though it all definitely is)
- This is rather cool: a revolving globe to illustrate the cables that form the internet. So far from being a cloud, it is probably more accurate to see the web as a global submarine.
- Conspiracy theories are NOT on the rise no need to panic
Quirky Treasure
- Love these stunning Butterfly Murals by Mantra
- Some weird snaps from GoogleEarth
- Some more accidental Renaissance photographs
- Photos displaying the remarkable breadth of primates’ facial expressions and emotions (by which I don’t mean archbishops)
