This is a great video created by Karl Fisch, Scott McLeod, and Jeff Bronman on the progression of information. I don’t know if this is the original, or how much it has been modified, but it really shows how much the Information Age has changed our
I am recycling the notorious 25 Things Facebook meme that is going around right now because I have a lot to write about, but no idea where to start. I got some very big news last week, and will be undergoing a new back treatment, which I am both very excited and very terrified about. I got started last week, and will be undergoing treatment for the next few months. I plan to keep a running commentary on this. Starting another day.
In the mean time, here is my 25 things about me. Totally unedited, straight from my Facebook page. Feel free to use the comments to tell us a few things about you!
1. I have a great life, and am very lucky to be surrounded by some phenomenal people!
2. I want to see the world. All of it.
3. I think the special moments and experiences are the most important parts of my history and my future.
4. I’m not impressed by titles or positions
5. Sometimes I get so tired of hurting, that I want to give up.
6. Then I suck it up and start fighting it again.
7. My dogs are better company than a lot of people I’ve met in my life
8. Mean people suck, and being dishonest or sneaky will catch up with you
9. I really need a day (or 14) on a beautiful beach
10. I don’t know what I’d do without my girlfriends!
11. I have a really great job
12. I wish it paid a bit more I know I’m worth it!
13. I love the smell of freshly baked just about anything
14. Coffee. Yum. Good, strong coffee.
15. I’m a popcorn snob -I love fresh popcorn, made with olive oil and sea salt
16. I love to sleep in
17. I’m stubborn
18. Sometimes I hold a grudge longer than I should
19. I am too hard on myself
20. Especially when it comes to my back injury. I hate that I’m not as strong as I used to be.
21. I love the sound of children laughing
22. Retail weaknesses: shoes, handbags, makeup, anything soft or sparkly
23. I spend way too much time on Twitter
24. I love living in the mountains, but miss the convenience of the city (and my friends!)
25. I think if people ate more ice cream, they’d be a lot less cranky
Another fun Social Media platform has hit the web, and it has some great potential!
Plinky’s mission is to help people “create inspired content for the web.” How does it work? Glad you asked. The concept is fun, and if they get the buy-in, I think it’ll be a great service.
