The lifehack.org User’s Guide

With the rise of RSS, website content is increasingly found far afield from the websites where it originates. And there’s nothing wrong with that — RSS away! But for those of you who read lifehack.org’s post in your feed reader, as well as those of you new to lifehack.org or longtime readers who might not have had a chance to look around the site much, I thought I’d take… » Continue

Online communities and you

Have you noticed over the last few years how many more communities you belong to online, and how isolated they are from each other?

Last century, I could count on one hand how many active communities I belonged to: there was the town I lived in, but I hardly knew anyone. There was a couple of newsgroups I followed, until the crumbled under the weight of trolls, flame wars… » Continue

Meet People NOT Business Cards

It’s NOT about the business cards. It’s about making a connection to the people you want to get to know, and making an impact in what you say and think.

Social Software As Connection Gateways

Why do people bother with MySpace?

I’ll tell you why: people can make connections and communicate and open dialogue. By “adding friends” and building your space, and adding multimedia, and using the tools on there, you can establish connections.

The benefit of using this social sharing sites (Flickr, Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, LinkedIN, Upcoming.org, etc, etc, etc) is that you get a different, digital connection to people. Some are people you’ve not… » Continue

My Employer, My New World Teacher

Last week Thursday, I challenged you to consider how you can best take advantage of our “New World” of learning opportunities. The possibilities waiting for you are extraordinary.

I asked you to reflect back on when you feel you have learned best, so you can rally together those lessons-learned about when you have been a great student. Think of that self-knowledge as a collection of the great learning behaviors you… » Continue

Answer a Forum Question: Planning

(Leon’s going to poke me for this).

I haven’t gone to the forums much yet. I’ve focused on putting up front-page material, and hadn’t really taken the time to see what the Community was about. Wow! There’s lots going on there. So, imagine my surprise when someone has come to YOU asking for help.
