What Matters More - The Message Or The Messenger?
I learned in the past few weeks that sometimes who is saying something is more important than what is being said. It’s caused me to reflect, for some time, on why this is the case? When you look at individuals such as President Obama versus former President Bush, when they both say the same thing who would you tend to believe? Over the past 8 years, Bush has proven to be untrustworthy...
Keeping A Competitive Edge
There’s a value in maintaining a competitive edge. As someone who straddles the competitive/altruistic world, I can see a clear value in keeping an equal balance of both. I was never one for hording information. I’ve been pretty open about what I do and sometimes how I do it. Lately though I am starting to re-evaluate the notion of maintaining a competitive spirit.

Be careful with what you ask for
The universe has a funny way of giving you what you need when you don’t think you want it and then giving you what you want after you realize that you don’t need it. Posted via email from Vicky Ayala | Comment »
Potential: For What It's Worth
Potential? What’s it worth? Can you see it? Measure it? Quantify it? I’m becoming more unimpressed with the idea of potential. Everything has potential.

But that about sums up potential. If its’ not...

There's A New Game In Town And It's Name Is...
The keyword of the day is synergy. It seems to be a theme as of lates. Myspace sync’ing with Twitter. Blackberry improving their sync’ing with Gmail. The only ones who don’t seem to get is Apple, but in their defense they’re well within their rights for regecting Google Voice. But synegry means more than collaborating to share resources. It means shaking the hands of your...
A Not So Rare Moment Of Disenchantment. Hopefully...
I’d like to think that the Internet is free space, but in seeing the outlash from Juanes performing in Cuba, I am not quite sure. I love to create. That’s what I do. That’s my contribution to addressing the issues that I find relevant in the world. Access to technology and embracing the new media as a way to connect with others on a global scale are two things which can shift...
