The fundamentally open model of Twitter created a new kind of information network and it has long outgrown the concept of personal status updates. Twitter helps you share and discover what's happening now among all the things, people, and events you care about. "What are you doing?" isn't the right question anymore—starting today, we've shortened it by two characters. Twitter now asks, "What's happening?

And that’s the problem with projections. Reality is a terrible collaborator. No matter how much you try to work with it, it has a mind of its own. And it never listens to you.

If you’re describing something, and you find yourself saying “blah blah blah” to close out the thought, it may not just be a shortcut to the next sentence. Instead, it may be a sign that you haven’t thought enough about what you’re trying to describe. Try finishing your explanations with real words to make sure you’re actually on the right track.

One of my great friends, Nic Bitting, is sharing photos of his artwork on his newly themed website.

This piece just blew me away.

Nic is starting in the University of Wisconsin - Madison, MFA program. He is, in my opinion, already a master wood worker.
