    "Personal branding, writing a resume, creating an advertisement all have a common theme. When trying to persuade someone, generic statements aren't enough." I take issue with "you can make your own luck," but the post has some merit in terms of the signifiers you use to describe yourself.

    Interesting. Before I got my current job, I was attempting to find one in social media. The idea of giving myself a social media title hadn't even occurred to me. Either I didn't do enough research or I accidentally avoided a digital faux pas. Either way, I already knew that it's what details and experience you can offer that represent your social media guru-ness... And not what silly title you can invent. Side note, that photo they used isn't from Halloween, it's from an anime or comic convention! I know because I'm a dork and I attend them regularly. (:

    No judging here... it's from New York Comic Con. I recognized the convention center and went to the flickr stream to verify. :D

    I've watched this video before. When reading Morus', "'The Nervous System of Britain': Space, Time and the Electric Telegraph in the Victorian Age" the section about the re-marketing of the telegraph made me think of this video. The retooling of a commercial at the end of the video around the 12:00 mark is very good, if you can't watch the whole video. It's long but very good. #emac6300

    While I believe it is important to ensure these companies adhere to health regulations as regards, products, processing, preparations, specifications and all that, i think it's unrealistic to expect photo-perfect food orders.

  • Simultaneously, though, we must understand that Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and other profit-driven companies are not neutral platforms for these conversations.
  • tech industrialists are the Rockefellers of this century, with profit, not innovation or the social good, as their primary motive
  • The lobby group FWD.us, brought to us by founders and investors of Facebook, LinkedIn and Spotify, among others, famously supported the Keystone XL oil pipeline with millions in pro-pipeline advertising
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Peers.org, an initiative launched by "sharing economy" companies like the home-subletting site Airbnb, have resisted government regulation, even as disability advocates fear services like the "rideshare" service Uber are increasing inequality between people with and without disabilities
  • they're doing everything they can to avoid paying taxes
  • gentrification
  • San Francisco has lost at least 40 percent of its black population since 1990, more than any other major city
  • But the fact is tech companies continue the practices of devaluation of racialized and feminized labor on a global scale
  • There are no easy answers
  • Another answer is for tech workers to, in tech lingo, disrupt the industry's exploitation by developing alternative tools for connecting us all. Firefox, LibreOffice, PirateBay, Wikipedia and WordPress are all widely used technology-based tools created by organizations that don't count profit as their foremost objective.
  • More important, we can organize with and support the media and activists that already are doing this work, like the Bay Area's POOR Magazine

  • So far, Wren founder and creative director Melissa Coker has maintained that the cast in the film are actually her real-life friends and colleagues. They're just, you know, super good-looking. Obvs.
