There are many things going on, these are a few of my favorite ones.
The One Place to be.
Last year 5,775 Photographers submitted 82,951 images to World Press Photo.
The winner of the Nature Series happened to be at Bondi Beach in Sydney on Nov 6th, when this "Cloud Tsunami" rolled in from the sea, turning the sky almost black.
I didn't know this existed (beyond the imagination of science fiction writers) but apparently there are "Silent Discos" In Switzerland, places where music is enjoyed using headphones instead of traditional speakers.
Apparently, locals in Lausanne complaint about the loud noise made by participants singing along the music, which resulted in the cancellation of the parties's permit.
The One Crime Series on Instagram.
Of course, every network is a channel, but I have to admit that using Instagram to distribute an episodic thriller is genius.
If you haven't yet, follow shieldfive. It''s a smart new way of using our most loved channels.
The One Magazine cover you could've done.
Bon Appetit Magazine shot every photo in their March's issue using an iPhone.
It's nice that, one of my favorite design e-magazines, has a section called Bookshelf, where "Every week we invite someone from the creative industries to share a rundown of their five favorite books in the whole ruddy world, which have inspired, excited or educated them."
Patty McCord is credited with creating one of the most modern and dynamics corporate cultures in America: Netflix. (Her "Netflix Culture. Fredom and Responsablity." slideshare doc has been shared over 13 million times.)
She designed such a self-learning and intelligent environment, that eventually she became dispensable.
Researchers at Cornell University analyzed nearly two years of postings on ChangeMyView, a forum on the internet community reddit where posters present an argument and invite people to reason against them.
They find that first person pronouns (“I”) indicate an opinion is malleable, but first person plural pronouns (“we”) suggest the opposite.
My dear friend Andrew Pascal has embarked in an incredible (and challenging) trip; He is going to try and visit every UNESCO World Heritage site in their list.
