My Favorite Flickr Search Sites

If you’re the kind of person who spends hours in PowerPoint every day… you probably know this scenario. You have slides. They content. But what you don’t have is a photo that works. That flows. That matches the graphic your boss gave you. Have a color you need to match? Try multicolr search lab. Simply [...]

Can Our (Online) Social Lives Really Capture Our Life?

Today, we’re all over the place. Not just in a busy sense (well, that too), but also in a digital sense. We leave our footprint (Foursquare checkins, Facebook wall posts, Tweets, Blog posts, Comments, Yelp Reviews etc..) all over the ‘net. We share where we’ve been, where we’re going, what we did, ate, thought and [...]

Real Life Fails.

I don’t know how I made it through the day before failblog, texts from last night, and fml. But what’s more interesting is the effect these sites have had on my life. Not only do I blog about them, kick off meetings (long meetings with the right people) with a hilarious new video or photo, [...]

Spread the… Awkwardness.

There’s nothing like a little bit of awkwardness to keep me going through a tough week. Whether it be through a super awkward pickup line from a guy (or your dentist trying to set you up with her son, in my personal case), or through a more favorable (and less awkward for me) version… family [...]

Chain Letters 2.0

While browsing new posts from my favorite preppy fashionista, I realized that it’s about time to tackle the “Web 2.0 chain letter” that seems to be invading collaborative outlets everywhere. Chain letters have evolved over time… first with cheesy letters, then emails, and now in social media, where one can attach multimedia to answer questions [...]

Photo Editing Awesomeness=Picnik.

It’s a (basically) normal Monday afternoon. I’m hanging out at the Energy corporate headquarters in Atlanta, waiting for a few email responses, so I decide to get a head start on my weekly post for the GE IMLP Blog. (Mind you, my blog used to come up in the first results page in google for [...]

Your Photos: Not just for framing anymore.

We all have the same issue: digital photographs. If you shoot (& store) at a high res, you already have (probably) a storage issue. But there are better places for your digital pics than your hard drive alone. Transferring your JPGs to a USB stick and printing them at your logal drugstore is something I [...]
