Recently during #journchat, I saw a reference to a post titled Does Your Twitter Handle Belong on Your Resume? The author is a PR college student, and the conversation around the post is mainly tactical, but the bigger picture surrounding our online identities is one I've been wanting to address for some time, so this gives me the opportunity....

I like this blog.

In the future it will be less about technology and more about content. Right now as it stands everything is focused on technology and the products that encompass them, rather than on the human factor. We have a myriad of products all of which having to have their own preferences set, their own differing complex interfaces that need to be releanred...

When we are bombarded with information from every direction simultaneously, critical thinking is pushed aside out of necessity by faster, more holistic forms of awareness. Emotion and image take center stage. We are learning to use our digital media as a form of ESP. We don’t read, we scan. We jump around quickly searching for...

Visit Wolfram Alpha The creators of Mathimatica have created a search engine of sorts, a computational knowledge engine: it generates output by doing computations from its own internal knowledge base, instead of searching the web and returning links.

Seems that our evolution dictates our necessities and behaviors and thereby defines what space is necessary to house us and our actions. This being said, now with the internet and computers being part of our daily routine our behaviors are changing and will once again redefine space.

As an Architecture Student, I am very interested in how behavior is effected by space, and architecture. Your amoeba's unique shape, contents, form and mechanisms of movement are defined by activity and behavior. You cannot choose what it will look like, though it is possible to shape it's form through specific activity & behavior, for...

What a GREAT time to be alive. Well, I would love to be alive in a few hundred or thousand years when were (assuming were humans) are traveling in space, are living with the earth, and over all these petty problems we face today.
