I just finished reading this article on “Why the QR Code is Failing.” His sentiment towards their current usage exactly mirrors a conversation I had a few weeks ago. People seem to think just having a QR code present is good enough, and I completely don’t understand how they are satisfied with the results. A […]
The privacy debate continued yesterday on CBC’s the Q: Social Media – what does it mean for the confidentiality of your personal information? People consciously choose to share opinions, pictures, employment, interests and more on Facebook, Twitter, FourSquare and the like. This isn’t at all bad; given that those sharing have nothing to hide and/or […]
I think it is appropriate that the main complaint from those on the opposing end of Occupy Wall Street is that they can’t figure out what those ‘occupying Wall Street’ really want. This is kind of like how you can’t see the bottom surface of a lake when leaning over the hull, only the boat […]
In his Spacing Vancouver article, Andrew Cuthbert showcases the effect of new developments on the Downtown East Side of Hastings Street. The map shows a clear relation in old buildings with bars on the windows as hot-spots for the Hastings Street-Community.

With so many people vying to bring the spotlight over so many causes, how can we manage to read over each speech on “making a difference?” Look at the masterful brevity of this t-shirt campaign, and appreciate the […]
Stripped of their clothes, stripped of virginity, stripped of identity: over 500 girls and counting have been harassed, some even arrested then raped, tortured, locked-up, by police and security officers, rendering them emotionally and psychologically lifeless in their hometown. It is a form of murder, especially for those who can’t speak up for the fear. […]
After hiking the Juan de Fuca trail, which was a beautiful and challenging trip that at times forced my brain to imagine I had wings attached to my backpack helping me up the reaaaally steep climbs, I figured the format and push that make up the character of a hike would be perfect to apply […]
Lovely photos of their new collection were posted by Burberry this afternoon before each model hit the runway, giving Twitter followers the first look at the 2012 Winter season. Peeps love media, and these photos are perfect – big, colourful, clear! Eye candy, what-what! And all on Twitter’s new photo gallery feature, which collects images […]
Yesterday’s post was on JetBlue using Twitter to hear & solve their customer’s problems as they happen, and it appears Airbnb.com has taken on the same philosophy with their social media strategy: building a brand by being there. Listening, and reacting has led them to a $1 billion valuation. Their slogan? Travel Like a […]
