Unravelings

From HP: The 4 pillars of mobile device etiquette---AMEN!

Annoying, isn’t it? The problem with modern technology is that it’s becoming increasingly disruptive to our regular lives. Public transport in many large cities is now divided into “cell phone” / “no cell phone” areas, and many companies have begun banning notebooks and PDAs in meetings. The problem is — how do we keep from crossing that fine line where the convenience of electronic communications becomes a barrier to our non-electronic interactions? While good manners are always somewhat subjective — and, like technology itself, ever evolving — here are a few basic rules you can follow.

Scan to Evernote (on a Mac) « Evernote Blogcast

I am constantly trying to keep my desk clear of miscellaneous scraps of paper. Anything ranging from receipts to business cards to post-its that manage to accumulate in piles around my keyboard or in the pockets of my jacket and backpack. As these piles grow larger, more unmanageable, and completely unsearchable, I decided to find an effective way to dump everything into Evernote.

Hmmm...testing a Typepad feature

There's always something more to do when it comes to managing your life online. For a long time I've meant to get around to integrating this blog with Twitter and Facebook. I'd done it partially, by having my Twitter posts appear in the blog sidebar and on Facebook, and for my Facebook posts to appear on Twitter, but I'd failed to set up this blog to post to Twitter and Facebook.

I'm a bit wary of having the same post out too many times (I'd like to think I'm interesting but I know I'm not that interesting) so I'm going to begin by feeding the blog posts to Twitter, which should the move them to Facebook. Let's see if it works!

I rock because...OSI Rock Stars!

Janelle Elms of OSI Rock Stars asked what I felt my greatest accomplishment was in 2009 and what my goals were for 2010:

Purveyor of All Things Creative

Accomplishments: Was being selected Designer of the Year by Step by Step Wire Magazine. This means that I will have a feature article along with several jewelry projects in each of the five issues of the magazine in 2010. I worked hard developing a relationship with the editorial staff, and pitched the idea to them late last summer. As of today, projects for three of the issues are finished, and the first will be published early January 2010.

Goals: Increasing sales by 10%, having my jewelry appear on the cover of a magazine, and to have a one woman show in a gallery here in Jackson, Wyoming.
