This brightens my day every time I hear it. The employees look like they really enjoyed making this video. Have you heard/seen any great music/videos lately?
I would guess a lot of people have heard about Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland because of their use of social media. I'm constantly amazed at this wonderful new world of communication and who is using it effectively. Do you have examples of social media that you really liked/disliked?
Today I plugged the word "positive" into the search field of YouTube and came across this video about Dr. Emoto and his research showing the effects of positive and negative energy on water. It is a compelling visual for me. Here is a link to the website World of Water. There's a video there that shows how they prepare the water specimens. Another interesting link is the Emoto Peace Project, the mission to carry his messages about water to the children of the world.
Some believe his research was a hoax.What do you think? No matter what any of us think - water is vital and we need to protect our sources.
Using visuals to enhance life.
I love the creativity of this couple and their wedding party. It makes me smile and LOL every time I view it. And they have used the response to their video to collect donations for Sheila Wellstone Institute - an organization working to end domestic violence. How have you used visuals?
Can you believe it's almost May?
SOBCon is next week. If you're serious about blogging - or want to be - you have to attend this event. Check out all the people who are already signed up. Look at all the opportunities to learn and socialize with other bloggers.
I still am unsure if I can attend. It's been a scary year so far for me and I have not been working as much as I would like. So my reasons for not attending have been based on finances. And then today a fellow blogger, Deb at debworks told me that Naomi from IttyBiz is unable to attend and is giving away tickets. You can be sure I went right over and signed up. And I told Jim about it because he really enjoyed SOBCon08.
I figure "if it's meant to be" we'll get tickets. It was a "meant to be" event that brought Deb and me together just as I am contemplating my future as a blogger.
Time is running out! Sign up today.
I'm sorry Naomi can't make it though. Be sure to check out the IttyBiz blog.
Now that the flood waters are beginning to recede, people are able to get in and assess damage. One of the most heart-wrenching things is the loss of precious photos. They cannot be replaced. However, they may be able to be restored. There is an organization called Operation Photo Rescue that was started after Katrina and they are open to helping where they can in Iowa. They are a network of volunteers who can repair photographs damaged by natural disasters - at no cost to the owner.
And, there is a local photographer who is involved - Kevin Barber of Barber Photography. He is gathering other volunteers who may be able to help. Contact him today if you can help, or if you have damaged photos and need help.
Here's tips for salvaging flood and water damaged photos. It's important to take immediate action - and the right steps.

More importantly, change a child's life.
All proceeds from book sales benefit Variety, the Children's Charity.
