  • Weekend Favs Feature May Sixteen

    communicationI’ve added a weekend post routine that I hope you enjoy. Each weekend I write a post that features 3-4 things I read during the week that I found interesting. Generally speaking it won’t involve much analysis and may range widely in topic. (Flickr image included here is also fav image of the week)

    Enjoy!

    Good stuff I ran across this week

    • Slideshare – Slideshare is a site that allows you to post your slide presentations and have them converted to flash slideshows. These can then be embedded on your web site. I’m a big Slideshare fan and recently found the Facebook application and LinkedIn application for Slideshare that allow you to post your presentations automatically to your Facebook and LinkedIn profiles when you upload them to Slideshare.

    • Simply Noise – this tool may take some experimenting with to appreciate, but what is does is produce white, pink, or brown noise that can be very beneficial to help drown out distracting noise around you. Some office environments add devices to do this. The site also promotes this for relaxation and soothing migraines and I have to tell you when I want to write or really concentrate I find a little white noise through headphones is a great way to help me focus.
    • 10 lessons from a failed startup – All 10 are spot on and applicable to start-ups and grow-ups alike. My favorite #5. Marketing requires constant expertise.

    • I like it. After all, success is found in habits.
    • Tried Slideshare and found that it did not do a great job with PowerPoint transitions built into slides. I have been using SlideBoom and have successfully embedded shows into my blog with voice-overs without a hitch. IMO SlideBoom is a superior application for my needs.
    • how i loved the article about top 10 lesson from failed startup, lots of juicy article across it. basically the lesson to definitely learn
    • Thanks John. I was just talking about distractions (to my family while I'm in my office trying to get some work done). I'm going to look at the Simply Noise product - maybe it can help block out some of the things going on around me.
