elspethjane:
This year I had the honor of planning something reminiscent of what my friends and I would call “Kegs & Eggs” or “Beer & Bagels”. Maybe you can guess? If you immediately thought, idiot parade, then you’re partially correct, but the real answer is an early morning bar crawl through Brooklyn and…

Dan Barber: How I Fell in Love with a Fish
This is everything a TED Talk should be; funny, inspiring, thought provoking and incredibly smart.
I love the idea of creating an ecology that is completely renewable and sustainable. I think organizations could learn a lot from the innovatiive farming methods discussed in this talk. Enjoy!
thebetacup is officially official!
It’s absolutely incredible to think that just under a year a go I had this crazy idea for redesigning reusable coffee cups, and that in just a few days we are kicking off the betacup Challenge, with the world’s largest coffee retailer, Starbucks, supporting our efforts.
For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, check out this video below and even more...

TED Talks: Rory Sutherland: Life lessons from an...
Advertising adds value to a product by changing our perception, rather than the product itself. Rory Sutherland makes the daring assertion that a change in perceived value can be just as satisfying as what we consider “real” value — and his conclusion has interesting consequences for how we look at life.

As we strive to move away from cookie-cutter sameness, individuals’ opinions, points of...

Statistics Show Social Media Is Bigger Than You...
There’s some debate over on Socialnomics as to whether the stats in this video are accurate, but for me those that argue the sematics are missing the point. The overall sentiment is spot on. We’re experiencing the communications revolution of our time and social media is having and will continue to have a major impact on society and culture.

I’m really pleased with the latest ThinkSocial blog post. Jacqueline’s talk is full of so many incredible examples of how social media is playing such a vital role in bridging the gap between developing countries and the rest of the world. It’s particularly refreshing to see the discussion focus on the cultural changes that we’re seeing, rather than on tools and...
