If I wasn’t so utterly destroyed from the lack of sleep or the soul-crushing feeling that my 4 year old job to nowhere gives me, I’d probably orgasm over this video. OK, that was going too far. Everyone knows I am too cynical to feel pleasure of any kind. Anyway, my two favorite things Battlestar Galactica and the Beastie Boys.
Another interesting piece by the brit, Charlie Brooker. What counts for news these days is polarizing comments, drama and celebrity rehab information. There isn’t really any reporting of any kind and Brooker shows you the basic format.
He did a piece a while back on Reality TV editing, but apparently I never posted it. That one starts slow, explaining editing but the reality part is very good.
Beer runs are always an adventure. Sometimes you find arm candy to bring back to the party and other times you aren’t so lucky and wake up the next day with a tattoo of Dr. Phil & Nic Cage dry humping Kevin Costner.
I was just saying on Twitter how amazing it is to me that people are so eager to receive junk mail & advertising. I mean if someone asks for your name and address you get defensive about your privacy, unless they throw the words “Social Network” in front of their proposal.
Now we have people out there calling themselves professionals who are labeled Social Marketing experts. The job is to advertise the company they work for on social networks like twitter, facebook, etc. The name of the game is exposure. Forget quality interactions, lets just see how many fans we can get on our Facebook fan page because that means more customers! Let us worship our all mighty god QUANTITY!! As consumerism is our religion, MORE is our goal.
The folks who lampooned twitter have called out the LinkedIn in the following video.
