Will the Internet Doom the Planet?
http://dilbert.com/blog/entry/will_the_internet_doom_the_planet/
This is an awesome article! It'll really make you think about how we advance technologically, and if we can have a money-making structure out of it.
Too many things are now heading towards the free zone. Without any kind of control in check, how will anyone make any money?
Alternatively, if we push technology to work together, for a common goal, we can reach a point whereby we do not need to work for money!
I know I've shared this before, but I just have to mention it again: We need to start moving ahead as a race. We need to push forward with the common goal of improving technology so that no one has to labour their lives away just to enjoy the golden years. We need to stop being selfish.
Gosh, I love the Internet! I love the spreading of ideas!
The Back of the Napkin
I'd like to post a recommendation on this book that a friend of mine introduced to me!
Author: Dan Roam
Title: The Back of the Napkin: Solving Problems and Selling Ideas with Pictures
This book illustrates (pardon the pun) the effectiveness of presenting with images. Of course, we already do that all the time! When you want to present some numbers, a bar chart appears! If you want to present growth, a multiple variable point graph would suffice! You get the idea.
The real challenge though, is to make it second nature to yourself. Bar and pie charts can be done with computers and software, but what about everything else? Would you be able to solve your problems by laying out all the information without getting confused? Would you be able to present your business model with a pen and a napkin?
Simplify, and make it easy for people to understand!
I think the concept is pretty interesting, and it's a fast read. First portion is a little draggy though, cos it speaks of how eyes work and how we perceive things without getting confused despite the huge amount of information being absorbed all the time.
But later on, some very real concept tools are given, and with a little bit of practice, I'm sure I'll be a master of visual thinking in no time!
