You're right, there are indeed people willing to learn and that is encouraging. - How is social media in Singapore?

Mike Arauz's slideshare presentation on "Design for Networks" is brilliant. Design for Networks His thinking in the above is only surpassed by his very own post on the same topic.I'm honored to know Mr. Arauz and pray one day we have real drinks as he keeps tantalizing me with his drink mixi...

Paul,
Thanks for sharing these musical gems. I like when marketeers jump a little bit outside marketing. Not only the brains need to be fed... and it feels good and insightful.
Stuff I've Been Listening To
Mostly because it's been so long since I've done a Tune In - I thought I'd share a few things getting heavy rotation in the iphawd. John Grant - teamed up with Midlake to create a gem of a record. (play = Marz) Aloe Blacc - provides the title tune for the new HBO show, How to Make it in America....
"The important thing to think about is not what the technology is doing, but which behaviors are these technologies enabling?"
Right on Gavin, this is exactly where our thinking should be. Basically the gems are below the surface and shine only "if" people decide to make something out of it. Technology is not what we should focus on. Human behavior is.
See this film / idea around Chatroulette, bringing yet another interesting perspective.

Chatroulette - It Isn’t What You Think
When Malcolm Gladwell wrote Blink , it changed the way that we think. It made us realise that first impressions really do count – and in fact, we only have the blink of an eye before our conditioning, our prejudices and our expectations kick in. So it is hardly surprising then that a site like C...

Shonky’s Sound Racer V8
If you feel that the family car is just not giving you the V8 experience of your youth, then this handy device may be just what you’re looking for. It’s like having a hotted up V8 for $60. It’s good to see technology being put to some useful outcome ;)
ROFL ! ! ! Fabulous... they should make the same for mopeds with sound of Ducati Monster or Buell 1125CR. ; )

Hey Stefan,
Fantastic interview. Great to hear your story this way. Also want you know that your Monsters are making our days at the agency. The expo, here in our Brussels offices, looks fabulous and keeps people's eyes very busy, jumping from one wall to the other, wondering about the storie(s) of the Daily Monsters. Thank you once again. We'll be in touch. : )
MONSTER INTERVIEW ON INDIEANIMATOR.COM
Good morning. I hope you had a good Thanksgiving, and that you're headed into a smooth and happy holiday season. As you know, I spent the weekend before last at the CTN Animation Expo in Burbank. While there, I answered a few questions for Johnie Tidwell's very cool Indieanimator.com. Take a lo...
Hey Rebe,
So sorry to hear about this. Sending warm thoughts your way.
In Honor of Madeline: "Maddie Cat"
She was above all else...the Cat's "Meow." And tonight, after 15 years, she said goodbye to her nine lives here. *********************************** Special Thanks to: NYC Veterinary Specialists
Gavin, you enlighten a very interesting angle I was not thinking about. As a matter of fact, I had it in mind the other way around. I was thinking about the dynamics of anticipation.
If you imagined (yesterday) that big change was on its way and wake up today, right in the middle of it, maybe it's time to listen to what you could think of what tomorrow will be (in other words move from "observing" to "acting"). Sliding from intellectual anticipation to real adaptation. And this rejoins what you point out about going against our mental conditioning, eventually also education, or the way we learned what / how things "should be"... before or without that big change.
The Future of Work

Hey Bea,
Thank you for your comment. : )
I like the "Lost in Transition" idea. Once the consciousness is there, it's all about choosing the right moment to jump. And of course not wait for "now" to get lost into "past".

Calling all Authors - It’s the Age of Conversation 3
Back in 2007 it was a struggle to explain to people what “blogging” was all about. At dinner parties, people would grill me about blogging, about its relevance to business and about the weirdness of writing for a handful of readers. So when Drew McLellan and I decided to try and pull together 1...
Stefan,
Thank you SO much for your help making this happen. Our building now definitely looks extra-ordinary thanks to your Monster friends. We are continuously getting fantastic comments from our visitors. Wish you could come to see this live. O)
MONSTERS INFILTRATE BELGIUM
Good afternoon. The solstice-adjacent sun still mercifully high in the California sky at 7PM, and I thought I'd show you the latest Monster expansion. I just received a sheaf of photos from Belgian friend of the Monsters Luc Debaisieux at JWT Group Belgium (J Walter Thompson) in Brussels. Luc ru...
