Äntligen är det midsommar igen

Någon stans mitt emellan våra stora svenska högtider, jul och midsommar, saknar man dem. Hur vi träffas familjerna emellan och i goda vänners lag och mår fint av att bara få rå om varandra under sköna väderförhållanden med snö eller strålande sol. Kanske i en skön blandning. Inlagd sill som enligt ritualliknande förhållanden tillretts enligt konstens alla regler. Den ena konstigare än den andra. Naturligtvis sköljer man ner hela kalaset av julbord eller midsommarbuffé med hemkryddat brännvin. Midsommarsnaps eller Julsnaps! Föredömligt försluten i årstidsriktig förpackning, smyckad flaska eller plunta (för julbord eller julotta) alternativt dunk … Allt toppas av lite skön dans om några små grodor någon stans.

Äntligen är det midsommar igen och som vi har längtat.

Funky Forest – Interactive Ecosystem from Theo Watson on Vimeo.

Funky Forest (link 2) is a wild and crazy ecosystem where children manage the
resources to influence the environment around them. By using their bodies
or pillow “rocks” and “logs”, water flowing from the digital stream on the
floor can be dammed and diverted to the forest to make different parts
grow … See more

Social media from Lianne Seykora on Vimeo.

I have arranged many breakfast meetings to build the network, for myself and others. After also spoken at several luncheons and schools, universities and liberal education, I must say that this is a very good initiative. In Sweden there is something called ”soup lunch”. Assuming that there are at several places. It can be a great ambition for the not too pretentious event. I just Have To arrange meetings sometime soon.

Social Media from Phillip Crossland on Vimeo.

Mr. Crossland has some interesting thoughts. I do not share his thoughts on Twitter, but clearly you have to work in the right order. Number one is to have a clear strategy before setting any Social Media. It may show that you are not going to work with, for example, Twitter. But whatever you conclude, it is important to know what is being said about you and your products out there on the Social Web. Example of a product that can help you keep track is Radian6. Read more about Radian6 at Expound Social Media.

Social Media from Phil Guest on Vimeo.

Phil Guest från http://www.PhilG.TV/ visat på ett trevligt sätt att man inte behöver jobba med tråkiga PowerPoint slides. Nej man kan presentera sitt material på så många roliga sätt. Detta är ett bra sätt.
“Brief: To educate top executives as to how important Social Media is when promoting and placing a new product into the market place. The brief was to basically bring the script to life via typographic treatments, iconography and animations…”

J Oliver TED Speech from Richard JH Kim on Vimeo.

A Remarkable Speech by Jamie Oliver at TED. The food we eat will kill us. Here, Jamie talks about the U.S. but it is a behavior that is spreading throughout the West. Our children will not learn how best to eat and take care of his body. Some of the culprits are the big food companies as high-level manage their products in schools and homes for a good profit to shareholders. Not a given that you can actually make money on good food such as Slow Food
I myself have a huge interest in food so my kids can not get away. No intermediate products here at home. We do almost everything from scratch.
Fantastic speech by Jamie, who is doing a fantastic job in his own way. I just love it.
