A Story in Snapshots

Here are a 10 snapshots I took over the last few weeks. I think number 6 is my favorite. Yours?

antisocially social
1. I took this at a social media event in Helsinki. I love the irony of sitting at a table of wonderful geeks, all of whom are being social online while not talking to one another.

Nicky

2. That’s my friend Nicky. He’s an excellent photographer of the NYC young and beautiful. Check out his site here.

Father and son

3. I was flying on the plane with two Marines on my left and this father and son on my right. The younger Marine says to the older Marine, “I haven’t seen my father in seven years. I write him sometimes. Sometimes he writes back. I hope to be a better father than that.”

Zagat marketing
4. This restaurant in New York knows how to use its Zagat endorsement to market itself.

Not lovin’ it
5. An unappetizing look at McDonald’s NYC….I’m not lovin’ it.

Lovin’ it
6. Even McDonald’s can be beautiful in the right light. I’m lovin’ it.

More than just coffee
7. I don’t understand this positioning statement. Don’t tell me what you’re not—tell me what you are.

What do we want? A WHOPPER! When do we want it? NOW!
8. The masses have spoken. And the masses want a whopper.

Obama-rama

9. Obama fashion at Urban Outfitters

10. Of course, this was at a state fair.

I like this idea for a business blog: post 10 snapshots of your last few weeks – it’s one way to add a human touch to your content.
