out of ideas : blogging projects to try out
chris brogan has a cool list of 20 projects to put together for your blog. the ones that i am going to entertain in the coming weeks.
- My Town – Take us on a photo tour showing us 5-7 things that would make a new visitor to your town happy to see.
- Share Five Friends– Show us five friends’ blogs and give us a blurb on why you like them.
- My Mother, My Daughter – Doesn’t have to be
exactly this, but the idea is to interview your parent and your child,
and ask them five questions to compare their perspectives. (thinking i would do this with my youth) - My Media Making Process – Show us your podcasting or videoblogging or photoblogging (or whatever) setup, and talk us through the procedure.
- A Cause to Connect – Share your social cause of choice, and give us a background, the challenge they face, and ways to connect and be helpful.
- Without Words – Can you post a story told completely in pictures? How about sounds?
brilliant! what if we didn’t have the laptop? what would starbucks do
by now you have seen the improveverywhere folks stoppage of time at grand central station. awesome! on a smaller scale, what would happen if we didn’t have laptops? would people cart their desktop computers around to the local starbucks to work & surf the internet? what are peoples reactions? i think this is just a brilliant toy with a non hip cultural act in the hip cultural environment. brilliant!
when i was your age…
ever wonder about all those things that we do not have to do anymore? well now you can add to the list. courtesy of obsolete skills wiki. though i must admit, i did have to scrounge around for a slide film projector for a corporate friend who’s speaker person requested one.. his company didn’t have one, so who would have such an old piece of equipment? well the church of course. i had two with some extra reals to boot. we got a kick out of setting it up and testing it.
