Education from everyday experiences.

Better use of time!

The problem with social media is that is can and will be all consuming if you allow it to be. The problem with the Internet in general is there is simply so much out there how do you know where to start looking for information, ideas and just stuff? The usual approach is to go [...]

AudioBoo.

I want to share with you one of my absolute favorite WEB2.0 tools, yes I see WEB2.0 applications as tools, Audioboo! Audioboo is an application that I use on my iPhone to post audio podcasts. You may be saying why? Who cares? What is the point? All good questions! Well, there is no denying that [...]

NUDGE and the A+++ Example, TED.

Every so often you happen upon a book that has the potential to change the way you do something, maybe everything. If you are like me you can list those books on the back of your hand. NUDGE, by Dr. Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein, is one of those provocative great books. Who hasn’t asked [...]
