Regularly typing within the constrain of 140 char. has influenced how I frame information and ideas. Near as I can tell, it's for the better

There are many implications waiting to be worked out, ideas and opportunities to be leveraged and explored.

Buy the better stuff or look bad

[viddler id=9a39e16f&w=437&h=370]

 

Buy the expensive toilet paper or look bad. Design and cheep buyers of supplies put many companies at odds with themselves. While companies spend huge money on branding and do a great job like Home Depot and Crate and Barrel they also skim where most customers could really use some help, the restroom. 

If the paper towel and toilet paper dispensers in most restrooms were designed to minimize tear off and the supplies that were put in them were high in quality and resistant to tearing, then companies could minimize taking the branding hit it on the chin that they do on a regular basis.

UGC

I have a list of topics to address in this blog space yet I am struck with the impact of a couple ideas I came across recently not least of which is from Jim Collins. He says, "If it is about you, you will not build something great."

So, while my hope is this space is for ideas and their expression I want to take a step to make it about what you, the reader... the user, are interested in. If you have an inclination as to what you might like me to address I would be happy to give my shot at it.

UGC stands for User Generated Content. I am not there as robustly as I see the future to be but I will start with a list of topics to address. Generate a list of topics... ready, go.
