COMING SOON TO A COMPUTER NEAR YOU!!!


Now there is all this talk about sooner or later the computer/the internet will know the difference between what is important and what isn't.

WELL! If you ask me I don't think that is completely true. The computer is only as smart as you, the operator, are.

Even now that we have 'intelligent' search engines such as google and yahoo and others, some of the results you get back from an "IMPORTANT" search, aren't the ones your necessarily looking for, or just aren't classified as important to you. So that wouldn't be so important now would it be?

We never know, however; what types of new technologies are capable of being discovered. Before you know it in the year 2067 there will be a fingerprint scanner on the computer telling the computer what website to go to according to your mood and your daily patterns or something. Weird, but you never know.

WHAT DO YOU THINK???

PROFILE PICTURE

I FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK!!!!! YAY!! CONGRATULATE ME

R.I.P. to the lost ones...This one's for you Sintia!!!(NOTE to Part 1)

It was my intention to make my last post look like a poem. Hint HINT!!! ;-)

R.I.P. to the lost ones...This one's for you Sintia!!!

I am going to piggy back on Jordan's approach on today's blog.



A little over two months ago I lost a loved one. It all started thinking that she was just going to a salon and then a meeting at work. Come to find out she never made it to the meeting. So everyone started to worry. Sunday morning it was confirmed that Sintia Mesa was missing.



The bulletins on myspace.com helped me and the family get the information out to everyone
and anyone about Sintia. Within the hour I was reaching out to people I didn't even know with
the help of those that I knew. Everyone was helping us find her within three hours. Friends of
friends of friends were posting information about her and getting the information out to all those
they knew. Information about her has shown up on the nightly news that same night.



With the news out on watch as well as everyone on facebook and myspace keeping a look out
we had a community of people helping us.



Monday night we received the bad news that she had been found in the trunk of her car in an
apartment complex in Baltimore city. Her cause of death had been found as asphyxiation A
couple days later at her funeral more than five hundred people showed up, from friends and
family to coworkers and sorors. News spread so quick so fast thanks to those internet
networking tools.


******************************Virginia Tech******************************
Without networking and such things as myspace, television news and radio, people would have
a much harder time finding information and knowing what's going on around them.
Today and yesterday there was a moment of silence dedicated to the lost ones at Virginia
Tech. It is horrible and terrible to even begin to think why someone would do such a malicious
thing to others, having to leave the families of those individuals in sorrow. The pain inflicted on
the loved ones of those who were massacred is a pain no one should ever have to endure. Losing
someone is bad enough, but losing them as a result of someone else's selfishness is even worse
because they are taken from us before their time.


********************LETS HAVE A MOMENT OF SILENCE******************




THANX FOR STOPPING BY!!!!!

My Brand, Brand Me

How would you brand yourself?

I was very attached to a particular clothing line in middle school, which was Tommy Hilfiger. Now I don't really stay loyal to a particular clothing line and I just wear what looks good on me.

Sometimes clothing brands are just overrated and not really worth all of the HOOPLA that people give them. When it comes to other things such as toothpaste or hygiene products that is a different story. I stick to Colgate toothpaste instead of Crest because I like the flavors Colgate has to offer compared to Crest, besides Colgate is the overall better toothpaste. LOL! *;-)* Also the shoes that I tend to be drawn more to are the Kwiss brand shoes because they are priced pretty reasonably and they are comfortable. Have you tried Kwiss?


When it comes to branding myself. I wouldn't want to say that I only use a particular brand of something because I often like to change and experiment with different brands and products. No I am not a Tommy Girl anymore, in fact I don't even like Tommy anymore. So I would just brand myself as ME not anything else!!!

Everyone's building their own bridge

In order to succeed in the business world one must have connections. And yes it is true what the saying says: "It's not what you know. It's who you know."
Building individual bridges for everyone is a business in itself because it allows you to be connected to other people who may at one point need something from you, which then you would be able to negotiate something to exchange.
Building bridges is very important because slowly and easily everyone becomes connected and through interests or commonalities. These being those bridges.
Being able to find a common ground with someone you don't know is a bridge in itself because it is giving you the opportunity to identify with that other person or persons on a similar level/platform.
This is very important for not only business, but for such fields as journalism and public relations.
