started a new blog, dude!

here it is, the transition into my third iteration of personal blog, managed, owned, written and unedited by yours truely!
its wordpress.. and i am hoping to connect a twitterfeed, create lists of all this wondering thoughts inside the hollow spaces of my head! I mean someone is going to love reading on of these posts.. sometime, and I hope they crack a smile at least. Like the reminder that causes a person to breath deep and be conscious of every action... the humor is in the reality of our existence.

... enough ranting here.. come to the new blog

Pictures, Articles and the Belgian Juniors team

As I dream without much hope of actualizing the dream to head to Rimini, Italy for Paganello this year I have been flooded with stories and articles about others who are going or who have gone in the past.

completing the documentary... now

I am in the initial phase of the final stage of completing this project.
However, I recently reached the City of Rimini on Twitter @visit_rimini or at http://www.visit-rimini.com/. They have some video on their website from a few years ago!

I am hopeful that we might work together to collaborate on the Paganello Documentary as the original vision was to cover three main subjects: The Tournament (which is centered around the city), the Team and the Sport.

Perhaps with their support this project could target a full length documentary that would include historical footage as well as a stronger focus on the culture of the hosting city, Rimini!!

Here is a tease of the work we have done in 7 minutes: http://current.com/items/89383560_frisbee_kings. Please keep in mind I did not do this original edit, and Current.com made further edits to make it more palatable to their viewers. My documentary will have a different feel to it as it is a cultural documentary about a sport.. not strictly a sports doc.

Social Networking.. and the research

Quickly the introduction of Online Social Networking has become a time captivating interest.
It was a moment last year, while I was approaching one of the local high schools about starting an Ultimate team. I asked if one of the students would be the liaison at the school, to relieve my need from being present for all communications. Everyone pointed to one boy in the class. When I asked him for his email address, his head cocked and his nose wrinkled, “I don’t really check my email much anymore.” When I asked how he stayed in touch and communicated with his friends he said, “All my friends are on facebook now. I only use email for old people.”
Let me clarify that I am enjoying the aging process.. I intend to increase the amount of attention to contribution that I will make as I age. The maturation of a human into an elder is a beautiful something. That said, It is the younger generations that I most want to impact. The result was signing up for Facebook. Since then, I have had multiple people tell me, “Follow me on Twitter.” I think it was @christinekane who caused the tipping point.

Now, the level of my email box is finally receding. The leftovers include my folks and some of the “too busy to save time” typeofpeople... bless their hearts.

Now, I barely even blog. Its all micro sized blogs. 140 characters and I am done. All except on Present.ly. I LOVE THIS SERVICE!! It includes all the microblogging characteristics with the advent of an additional text box that, I think, is unlimited. Ontopofthat, it is a private network.. and I am utilizing it for business relations (as the www.HatchAsheville.com Volunteer Coordinator, with www.BuildSmartAlliance.com and a project I call Distributed Executive Business Development)

Microblogging stops the urge (that, at this moment, I am taking the liberty to express) toward verbosity. It forces the communication into tiny compartment sized mouthfuls. And this requires creativity for those birds who have alot to say (right @FakerParis and @THE_REAL_SHAQ )... and they still find ways to exercise their verbose natures. Much love to truncation.

Time for breakfast. Can’t tweet anymore for the morning.

this is another blog, should land in the pings!!

if this works, I will be very pleased. i am setting up the blog to
post my updates from email and then I can set it up from ping.fm!!!
