In my prior post on the fallout of the Orphan Works Act, I looked at how history panned out for the Fair Use provisions of the Copyright Act as a barometer for forecasting the future of the OWA, were it to pass. I felt that this would calm the fears surrounding the bill, given that both Fair Use and OWA shared similar objections (and rationale) from artists. I concluded that, despite how the OWA may ...

If my childhood exposure to Star Trek taught me anything it’s that you can’t mess with the time/space continuum without seriously screwing things up for everyone. Still, the reckless part of me would love to go back and have a heart-to-heart with the fourteen year-old version of myself as I fell in love with photography and began what has been a 23-year passion. Last weekend thousands of photographers converged around the world to walk and ...

If your next blog post doesn’t matter - don’t publish it until it does. In our series on How to Craft a Blog Post we’ve been talking about ‘points to pause’ while writing a blog post. So far we’ve looked at choosing a topic, titles and opening lines and today we’re going to get into the meat of your actual post. Here’s the question that I think we should all be asking before we hit ...

I’ve had my inbox at zero for over four weeks now ( Merlin Mann should be proud). I’ve learned that this helps my all around business processes, because to do this, I had to have a system to account for everything. The way I’ve managed it was a mix of David Allen’s Getting Things Done process, Stever Robbins’ You Are Not Your Inbox program, and simple figuring out what works and doesn’t work for me ...

There was once a time when I had no fear. I was 11 years old and I entered a story telling competition. I was confidently telling the story and captured everyone’s attention until suddenly I heard a voice from just in front of the stage commenting about my nose. It’s totally disastrous from that moment on. I lost focus and forgot the script altogether. That’s the exact time that I began to have a certain ...

I’ve worked for a couple of decades (or so!) helping people along the path towards their best life via my career in the fitness industry. Over the last five or six years, I’ve committed much more of my time and energy into developing a career in the big, weird world of Personal Development. It has been an interesting journey and I’ve learned (and continue to learn) much along the way. While the benefits of working ...

Now that I am getting back on the grid after three weeks in Asia, I thought a good follow up post to my time covering the Olympics in Beijing would be sharing some tips on one site that I ended up very actively using throughout the Olympics: Flickr. I have had a Flickr account for several years now, but always looked at the examples of Brian Solis and Josh Hallet (among others) and felt I ...

The following are 21 things happy people make a habit of doing: 1. Appreciate Life Be thankful ...

First, did you catch that “First Annual” up in the headline? Yeah, baby!!!! We had such a great response, and so many people asking about it, and we’ve already decided to make it an annual event. But before I tell you what a blast I had with my own local photowalk, here are some excerpts from comments posted on my blog on Saturday: We here in Sydney [Australia] finished our photo walk over 12 hours ...

Though the ruling is, quite correctly, being heralded as a big step toward a more fair ...

At times you could be forgiven for thinking it is - if you read a lot of blogs on ‘how to blog’ that is. One of the first thing that most of us who write about blogging advise those starting out is to work on writing useful and unique content. Certainly at the core of most great blogs is useful and unique content that draws readers in and generates links from other blogs, builds the ...
