Collaboration

Last year Sean McKay and I worked on the sun.com home page project along with many other talented people at Sun. This month they published an article about the project in Twin Cities Business Magazine.

This is really neat. We were discussing it at the IA coffee today based on Garrick’s blog post.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that this is something that should be remembered.

You are human

‘Scary isn’t it? Good. You ought to be scared. That’s a realistic reaction. You want comfort? Invent your own. Exhilaration and joy are also in order. But face the facts: the tracks end at the edge of the jungle.”

I’ve always struggled with the fact that the work I do seems a bit ‘touchy-feely’ to business folks. But today I learned about some secret sauce that makes it quantifiable. There are actually methods and models to prove that a good Customer Experience has a significant effect on the bottom line. It can be about profit and doing things that delight customers. That has always just been a gut instinct but now I’ve got numbers and proof to back me up.

way cool.

Maybe this feature has been around for awhile, but I just found it and thought it was cool.

Make your own googlelogo. I made my domain name.

It’s kinda kewl.

Online collaboration is one of the most excellent things that has been made possible by the Internet. I’ve been particularly interested in these kinds of projects lately. I found this oneThe Mirror Project, recently. I had heard of it before and finally decided it was time to check it out. I submitted this week and my photos got accepted and now part of that bigger project. I’m happy to contribute to this and more online collaborations. It’s inspirational to see the things that people can do when they have common interests.

I’ve got 3 photos out there so far, but I take quite a few pictures with mirrors, so I’ll be submitting more. They limit you to 3 a week which is very smart. This makes it so there isn’t a significant domination of one photographer or another.

These are my pictures so far…..

Colorado
Mexico

If you’ve taken pictures of yourself in the mirror, you should consider submitting too……
