Facebook's New Timeline

Facebook has announced an update on the Facebook blog today that the rollout of Timeline, its new profile page concept and layout, is now available wordwide.

Timeline was originally introduced at the Facebook f8 conference on September 22, 2011, but was limited to only a few people and those who took the time to install the “developer” version (yes, for geeks like me who couldn’t wait).

Timeline is, according to Facebook, “…a new kind of profile that lets you highlight the photos, posts and life events that help you tell your story”. It looks completely different from the “old” Facebook, which was just a “wall” of posts and comments – now, it looks like this: read more…

Dear Cirque de Soleil, First, I need to tell you of my absolute admiration for the incredible accomplishments of Cirque de Soleil – artistic and creative, ingenious and inventive, athletic and graceful, masterful and musical – just a true joy to watch and experience the “grandest circus” of them all. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing 3 Cirque de Soleil shows in my life, the first was Saltimbanco in Seattle about 12 years ago, the second was Zumanity in Las Vegas 6 years ago, and last weekend I saw Totem in San Francisco – all of them beautifully executed with [...]

Social Media Around The World 2011

A great presentation from Steven Van Belleghem, Marloes Eenhuizen  and Elias Veris of InSites Consulting, a European market research company that like to call themselves “change agents” rather than market researchers, on stats, figures and really interesting factoids about the state of Social Media all around the world in 2011.

Some Rules Are Meant To Be Broken…

Thumbnail image for Some Rules Are Meant To Be Broken…

[Updated 11/20/2011] My favorite game when I was 8 years old was Monopoly. I loved the idea of owning property, building a kingdom, the risks and rewards – and I loved the rules.

When you were a child, you naturally loved to play games. You learned the accepted pattern…and sometimes, you figured out what you could do to change the pattern and make it more interesting. Still [...]

United Breaks Guitars: The Power of One

Yes, this Youtube video of Dave Carroll and the story of his struggle with United Airlines for breaking his Taylor Guitar is from several years ago but worth re-posting – a great example of the power of the digital citizen and how one person can sway the opinion of millions with a simple, great story, imaginative delivery and a few clicks of a keyboard.
