Linking Back: Front Page Resumes, Looking to the Future, and Bartending

This week's "Linking Back" is one of our most eclectic. Check out these links:

- A well meaning, but perhaps unsuccessful, plan from the Civil Rights Coalition for the 21st Century.

- Front page resumes vs. video resumes vs. regular resumes. Check the resume post from Freakonomics. FWIW I feel Freakonomics has really declined in terms of consistent quality - I remember when they used to only post once (max twice) a day and they really hit the spot with their posts.

- Is bartending a good career move?

- Countries that are looking to the future.

- Apparently people are diluting the "value" of the AP label. Read about it here on the NY Times website.

- Interesting post on blogging under your own name. I blog under CK Tutors but everyone knows who this is, so maybe I fall into either category. Regardless, I'm still waiting for #1 on Penelope's list.
