The holidays - not to mention the copious year (and decade) end posts - have left little time for churning through the hundreds of streams coming into Google Reader. Today I finally caught up a bit and there are some great posts that are definitely worth a read.

Donation By Action: The New Social Charity Model: The founder of the #blamedrewscancer meme on Twitter shares his awesome story and prognosticates about the future of social action on the web.

Millennial Predictions For The Next Decade: Some great thoughts from notables like Change.org founder Ben Rattray and the always revolutionary Alex Steed.

A Blink-182 Guy's Sad Pitch to Vampire Weekend: Content to act like a gossip rag, the story misses the interesting stuff almost entirely. Still, Tom DeLonge's new company - and the accelerating speed of maturity - are worth thinking about.

Top 10 New Green Ideas to Watch in 2010: My choice to leave "green" moments off the Top Moments of the Decade list has drawn some heat, so if you want to dig more into what's coming next in that space, this is a great place to start.

Thinking About Etsy in the San Telmo Market: Fred Wilson writes a great little ponder about the "strolling" experience of online artist marketplace Etsy.

Nathaniel Whittemore is the founder of Assetmap. Previously he was the founding director of the Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement.
