		<title>What Marshall McLuhan Knew About Social Media</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I came across a great article on Brain Pickings.org the other day, featuring the Canadian icon of media thought, Marshall McLuhan. You may know McLuhan best for his famous quote “The medium is the message”. I’ve studied McLuhan for about as long as I’ve been involved in media and communications, and if you’re a media [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Simple Reminder About Real Life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am not fond of the term “In Real Life (IRL)”.
As far as I’m concerned, everything I do is my real life. Some people that I consider good friends are people I’ve never met in person &#8211; amazing people like Becky McCray, Jason Falls, Jason’s Dad Chillie, Deb Brown &#8211; aw, heck, I could go [...]]]></description>

		<title>Can We Be Helpful AND Scale?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I love best about social media is that it allows people to be infinitely helpful. People’s genuine desire to be helpful helped us raise over $100,000 for 12for12k.org last year. Helpful people, many whom I have never met in person, have gotten me through complex technical challenges without giving a second [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is the Social Web Making Us Too Dependant?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was growing up, it was sometimes dark all day.
Because of my Dad’s job, we lived in small, isolated communities, including the Canadian Arctic. When you’re an active kid, it’s 50 below, pitch dark at 1pm, and there’s one channel of television, you have no choice but to find resourceful ways to fill your [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Culture of Free and Why it Needs to Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have to get something off my chest. I’m going to try not to sound too ranty, and I really do want to know what you think (especially if you don’t agree).
We live in a culture of Free. Free is not bad. But, in order for social business to be successful, many attitudes are going [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Land of the Free</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a little talk with Scarborough Dude last night.
It&#8217;s sort of a biannual thing, my little talks with the Dude. It usually revolves around a Podcamp, some coffee or a beer. It always makes me want to write. He&#8217;s a wise man.
Last night&#8217;s talk took place in a loud, boisterous room filled with laughter [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to Win Clients and Influence People</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;You can close more business in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you.&#8221; &#8212; Dale Carnegie
We spend so much time and energy talking about the next big thing, the killer app or technology that&#8217;s going to help us be successful [...]]]></description>

		<title>Music Journalist Finds Clever Use for Faceboook Comments</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend, Roch Parisien has been doing this a long time. 
By this, I mean writing and talking about music. He&#8217;s one of the top music journalists in Canada, and in the 20 or so years I&#8217;ve known and worked with him, he&#8217;s interviewed just about everybody who&#8217;s anybody in music. I&#8217;ve been fortunate to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Want to Learn? Learn to Teach</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I sort of fell into the whole teaching thing.
I never had aspirations to actually BE a teacher. I wasn&#8217;t a great student, after all. Sure, I didn&#8217;t skip classes, mostly got my homework done on time, but my grades were a mess &#8211; partly from being a military brat (Canada&#8217;s education system is not really [...]]]></description>
