Staying creative in a chaotic world
I consider myself to be a relatively creative person, but recently I came across an insightful list of “29 Ways to Stay Creative.” Even the video presentation of this list screams creativity! First off, lists in general excite me, so to find that #1 on the list is “Make Lists”, made my ears perk up!

YouTube Time Machine!
Not to be confused with the box office hit “Hot Tub Time Machine,” the YouTube Time Machine serves up your favorite sound and video from 1860 to today, yep you heard right…1860. The interface of the YTTM is second to none. By sliding a marker along a timeline you are instantly served a random video

Shazam it!
I recently stumbled upon an effective advertising vehicle. Shazam has recently taken advertising to an innovative new level. Their audio recognition advertising has proven to be extremely successful with national brands such as Old Navy and Progressive Insurance, who are featuring the Shazam icon in television advertisements. This platform allows for a 100% ‘opt-in’ environment.
Give it to me straight, doc!
I HATE going to the doctor. H.A.T.E. I.T. Between the hold time to make an appointment, the wait in the waiting room, the wait in the exam room, the discomfort of the imminent poking and prodding and the anxiety of the forthcoming expense that follows – how could someone [who isn’t a sadist] ENJOY this

Secret pizza place…read on!
There are many tools I use when I travel, but I never thought that Foursquare could help me find a hidden gem in the middle of a 7-acre casino. As I was committing my Foursquare check-in upon arrival at The Cosmopolitan on a Sunday afternoon, a tip popped up suggesting that I look for the

Final Cut Pro = iMovie Pro (IMHO)
Two months ago, I wrote about the Final Cut Pro X announcement and wondered aloud, is Final Cut Pro X really iMovie Pro? Well the answer would appear to be ‘Yes, this is a classic bait and switch.’ How do I draw this conclusion? Especially when the software was released only two days ago? Two

Facebook owns tagging because Facebook owns stalking
A lot of times, when I tell people I’m a Copywriter, they ask me how I managed to get a job like that without a law degree. I’m not even sure if a CopyRIGHTer is even a real job, but it’s certainly not anything I’m interested in! Anyway, though I typically find this legal stuff

Need a little feeling of DIY?
The tool belt – a place for everything, and everything in its place. Your hammer is in the loop, you got your nails in their pouch, toss in a carpenter pencil and a pocket-level. Oh, don’t forget your smart phone. It seems like an odd thing to actually need for your next Do-It-Yourself project, except
