Two web pages that I find to be interesting, containing career and life advice relevant for people interested in research. Career advice from John Baez, who is not a folk singer, but a theoretical physicist, who maintains a great web page, from whence this advice comes. "Ten lessons I wish I had been taught" by Gian-Carlo Rota, mathematician and humanist.
