A blog about working smarter, not necessarily harder, through social networking, digital technologies
All things Hippie 2.0 from that blog post that brought together the whole topic around!
Last week was one of those weeks that would surely mark a before and an after on my mission of living “A World Without Email“. Two years back, in June 2008, to be more precise, I published an article on this very same subject in The New York Times. For a good few hours it … Continue reading A World Without E-mail: The Mashable Effect!
Usually, weekends, as most of you already know, are rather quiet over here in this blog and in most of my virtual social networking hang-out places. More than anything else, because I use that time to unwind properly; to chill out, relax, charge some batteries from that week at work and, eventually, connect with my … Continue reading A World Without E-mail: One Man’s Vision of a Social Workplace – Wear Sunscreen
I love it when it happens! You know, that “Serendipity Doing Its Magic” thing. It just happened once again! Earlier on today, as I was recovering from the @RWW effect, I was catching up through my Twitter timeline stream and I bumped into two wonderful YouTube video clips that come from two completely different worlds, … Continue reading Knowledge Is … All About Working Smarter, Not Necessarily Harder!
Yesterday I put together a blog post where I tried to share some further insights on how if today’s current corporate world would want to survive in the 21st century, it would probably need to start thinking about how to bring back again into the workplace the fun factor.

I mean, don’t you think that knowledge workers should be entitled to have just as much fun behind the firewall as outside of the firewall? Don’t you … Continue reading The Conference Call – Fun at Work or Fun in Work?
I think, by now, there will be very few people out there who may not have been exposed already to the wonderful TED Talk from Clay Shirky around the topic of “How cognitive surplus will change the world“. It’s one of those delightful presentations of under 15 minutes that will surely make you think for … Continue reading Cognitive Surplus and the Hippie 2.0 Connection

PKM, or Personal Knowledge Sharing (PKS), whichever term you would prefer to make use of, has always been one of my favourite topics to talk about and share some further insights over here and elsewhere. It’s … Continue reading Personal Knowledge Management by Harold Jarche (BlueIQ Ambassadors)
A couple of days back, I am sure you would still remember how I put together a tongue-in-cheek (Coming from my Hippie 2.0 side) blog post where I shared a couple of thoughts on the Top 10 Reasons to Ban Social Media in the Organisations that Jane Hart shared over at her blog coming from … Continue reading 10 Reasons NOT to Ban Social Media In Organisations – The Meme
Oh, dear, it looks like the Hippie 2.0 side of me wanted to stir the pot some more and come about before the usual blog post later on in the week. I guess there are times where you bump into a couple of links here and there that surely make you think about things twice … Continue reading Top 10 Reasons to Ban Social Media in the Organisation! — Really?
I am sure you would all agree with me that both TED Talk and TEDx videos are just terrific means of being wowed over and over again on multiple different topics. One could eventually spend the whole day long watching them one after the other and never get tired of them! The thing is that, … Continue reading Reinventing Social Media – The People by David Armano
