Can one ever have TMI (too much information)? Immediately I'd say I think not. Then again, that's a contextual question, isn't it? In the instance that it is about knowledge creation or pattern variance and not about water cooler chats on what your boss Victoria screamed at you on the phone this morning, then there isn't TMI. A new book by Joseph Dispenza explores how one's brain learns and processes info. I like the discussions on when the brain isn't stimulated enough by new experiences it can become addicted to comfortable, familiar patterns - which can be a good thing for some but not for the adventurous, Type-A personality, red color, or any other personality type ENTJ people in our lives... which includes me btw.
So check out Evolve your Brain, you might find yourself learning how to needlepoint and karate in the same week some day.

Want to have a chat with me after my talk at the CSTD Toronto Chapter event on March 1? Register, participate, enjoy and you get to have freebie consulting with me afterwards. Maybe I can even talk you into discussing about your certification programmes and how my firm, Phronetic International, can assist in enabling you to have consistently high performing stellar employees. What will I be talking about? The implementation of next generation organisational certification programmes. It'll be interactive, you have to stand up, move around, participate. No sitting by the corner.
Hope to see you there.

From the Media Ecology and Cultural Anthropology Department of the University Kansas, a 4:31 minute visual representation/explanation of Web 2.0. Behind the Digital Ethnography series of videos is Prof Wesch , creator of this video.

Great video worth sharing especially to those wanting to understand what Web 2.0 and how it connects to previous understanding of the web's functions, features, capabilities, potentials. This video seems to posit questions like Is the machine the new learner? Are we becoming one with our machines? (cyborg images abound)

Your thoughts?

Have you voted yet? Its free. Be a part of history. The New Seven Wonders of the World. As you know I've lived in New York for quite awhile so of course I voted for the Statue of Liberty as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World BUT not because of just my history with New York but because it represents Liberty and Equality. The location of Ms. Liberty, just like the rest of the wonders of the world on the list, shouldn't deter someone from voting for it because of its location but vote for it because of what it represents. Isn't that what the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World represented anyway? We all want to have equality and this is one way to tell future generations that we voice our belief that all humans are meant to be equal.

Today I received a National Ambassador for Canada certificate from the Swiss based-New Wonders of the World Organisation as one of the New Wonders of the World National Ambassadors for Canada. I wanted to share this with you and encourage you to be part of history. As we celebrate and remember the past during this Black History month, I now engage you to be part of the future with this New Seven Wonders of the World global initiative.

There is still time to VOTE and please use ambassador number 777202. It's your Canadian Ambassadors code (and you don't have to be Canadian to use this code). It is FREE. Choose your favourite New 7 Wonders of the World from the 21 that was shortlisted.

On 7/7/07, the New Seven Wonders of the World, will be unveiled for all the world to see and you can say to your progenies that your vote was counted in making that a reality.
