Pinterest Piquing My Interests; Huge Opportunity...
Pinterest is getting a lot of attention lately, so naturally I want to comment on my love for the platform. I love that it is easy to share and consume images; I love even more that it pulls in photos from the site you want to share making it easy to save and consume great content.
I was first introduced to Pinterest last summer. Newly engaged, a colleague of mine invited me to Pinterest as...

Wish SNL had feat. this gem in the finale. Mozart doesn’t want to just make music, he also wants to act. JT is classic.

Goals for 2011 -- Time For Me...and the people who...
2011 is the year that I want to really focus on me and doing the things that make me happy. Not that I have ever chosen differently, but I tend to put others before myself and while I cannot change that about me, I do want to add some things in my daily life to better me. Last year I downsized the number of volunteer opportunities that I dedicated myself to — this year, it is the small...

Top 100 Works in World Literature (aka my new...
I keep seeing notes on Facebook of a list of books the BBC supposedly thought most people would only read 6 of over their lifetime. I got to digging, because I wanted a real reading list to follow, but that BBC list was not doing it for me (seemed to be missing a lot of incredible texts, and had too much modern works in it…I love classic novels). So through a lot of digging, I found a great...

New Microsoft Store in MOA across from Apple Store
Yesterday we checked out the new Microsoft Store immediately across from the Apple Store at the Mall of America. I am an Apple fan and have lots of Apple products, so I know that I am biased and I will not pretend not to be. Have you been to a Microsoft Store? Is there anything there that is not a copy of the Apple Store? I felt like I was in a pseudo Apple Store where instead of being...

The Content Project - Easier Way For Consumers to...
Super interesting what WPP is initiating for content providers. As a consumer I definitely think I would pay a subscription for a number of content providers versus one by one. Questions - who else is doing this well already and would you pay for TCP depending on the content providers?
