A blog about working smarter, not necessarily harder, through social networking, digital technologies
Learning – Everything that has got to do with Learning whether it is face-to-face learning, eLearning or Learning 2.0
Yesterday, my good friend Ian Thorpe put together one of the most interesting and relevant blog posts I can remember around the topic of conference events and how to get the most out of them in today’s, now more than ever, social world, by pointing out a good number of suggestions and enhancements, mostly around … Continue reading Gotta Share! – The Ultimate Conference Event Experience
If you have been following me on Twitter for a little while now, you would probably know by now how much in love I am with my new shiny iPad 2 that I bought in Madrid almost a month ago, after having tried in multiple places. I guess that’s one of the perks of travelling … Continue reading My Top 10 Reasons Why I Bought an iPad 2
Even though the last couple of blog posts have been some of the most popular I have shared across over here in the last few weeks (Surely, it looks like both Activity Streams, as a powerful method to help reduce information overload, as well as “Filter Bubbles“, seem to be rather hot topics at the moment!), … Continue reading The Tale Of The Social Brand
In yesterday’s blog post under the heading “5 Reasons Why Activity Streams Will Save You From Information Overload” I mentioned how crucial and critical collaborative and social filtering of relevant content and people would become within the Social Computing realm in the coming years, if not already altogether, in order to allow knowledge workers manage … Continue reading Smart Filtering – On Humanising and Socialising the Web
I heart Activity Streams. I mean, I *love* them to bits! From the very first beginning that I got exposed to them over at Twitter, over 4 years ago, till today, where I am using a bunch of various different microblogging / microsharing services, both internal and external, I couldn’t work, nor get much done!, … Continue reading 5 Reasons Why Activity Streams Will Save You From Information Overload
I think we all know by now how wonderfully refreshing, inspiring, re-invigorating, thought-provoking and mind-blowing it is when ideas have sex, plenty of it!, specially, when that happens on a rather frequent basis; non-stop brain frenzy circulating all over the place, as Matt Ridley beautifully described on a TED Talk nearly a year ago; but … Continue reading Why Ideas Are Obvious to You But Amazing to Others
Following up further with that series of blog posts I started a couple of weeks ago, where I would begin another week at work with an inspiring video clip or a story to share across (Remember The Mountain?), I thought I would get things going this time around not with one of those clips, but … Continue reading Life in a Connected Day
Over the last few days, perhaps last couple of weeks, I have been having, once again, that ongoing love / hate relationship with Twitter, inclining itself a little bit more on the hate side of things this time around. Unfortunately. Specially, with #newtwitter, seeing how the overall user experience has deteriorated quite a bit over the … Continue reading Nancy White and Suzy – An Intro to Twitter
A few days back, over at GigaOm‘s WebWorkerDaily, Aliza Sherman shared a very interesting piece under a rather suggestive title: “5 Reasons Why Virtual Teams Fail“, where she pretty much nailed it on some of the various different issues that virtual teams face on a regular basis when confronted with that good old concept of … Continue reading The Art of Collaborating Effectively in Virtual Teams
One of the many great things from sharing your blog posts on Twitter (And I am sure that would apply as well to other social networking sites), to alert folks that new, fresh content is available in your blog, is the fact that shortly after there is always a great chance that you will get … Continue reading Community Managers and the Art of Facilitating Communities Effectively – Part Deux
