Recently Google introduced it’s new kind of social search, Search plus your world. It’s the search you know combined with social results from Google+ (due to the fact Twitter didn’t renew it’s contract and Facebook complained).
What is it?
Of course I can explain to you what this search plus your world is, but that would be like reinventing the wheel. I’m not really the one to do things others already have, so check out the video below (from Google). It will explain how search plus your world works and what it does.
So basically all the results from your network are shown among the normal search results. You can quickly switch back to the standard search mode by the icon on the top right.
Today I came across a beautiful set of photographs on PhotoDonuts. You can find the article here. When looking at the photo set I instantly thought: “A picture IS worth a thousand words!”
This isn’t a normal set of photos you see every day. That made me take a closer look to every one of them. With every photo I saw a different story. I don’t know if this is done intentionality or that the photographer (Helen Warner) made exact plans to capture a story.
I’ve found this set of digital art on InspireFirst this week and it immediately caught my attention. All the art is created by Simon Weaner. You can take a look at his portfolio here.
This is a follow up post on my post about whining (Let all the whining begin). It came to mind when coming across another “whiner”. I was asking my self the question: why would he go to that great length to start whining about something that isn’t really important to whine about in the first place? Then it struck me. We’re being too spoiled online!
A post I made on Google+ recently which I would like to tell readers here too.
This is something I need to get out of my mind. It’s all the damn whining about change that happens in for example software. When something new rolls out, a lot of people seem to take that chance to whine about everything they can imagine…it seems a forum is the perfect place to do it in an unhealthy way.
SCREAMING is a common thing, just like blaming everybody instead their selves. Come on people, are you really that stupid? Can’t it come to your minds that maybe you should spend some time learning and exploring new stuff, just like at school and at work? That would get you more satisfied too!
It will probably get you noticed on the fact that sometimes it pays off and things are working better. If after exploring things aren’t to your liking…okay! Then complain, but not immediately without even trying to use something.
And why not just ask or explain nicely? You think by responding and posting anonymously you’re getting a free pass to do it? Not really, you just won’t get any normal help or responses which will make you even more pissed.
