They did an excellent job cutting down 30 minutes of conversation into a short video. I've edited interviews in the past, and know you can't get everything. But I do want to feature Kyle more. He's a rock star! Nate Hey,

I just wanted to clarify that it wasn’t a criticism of For Your Imagination. They did an excellent job cutting down 30 minutes of conversation into a short video. I’ve edited interviews in the past, and know you can’t get everything.

But I do want to feature Kyle more. He’s a rock star!

Nate

You're right that one important aspect of Web 2.0 has been the personalization of the corporation. Short bios, personally written blog posts, and communication with the community have all had an impact. "Show some passion. It's all I ask." - this could be a mantra for my life in general. I love the way that <a href="chartreuse.wordpress.com"Chartreuse phrased a similar thought</a>: "don't be so fucking pedestrian." Looking forward to the move to nyc and the community that has developed there... see you in a few months. The imagery of the Ohio situation is strong.

“Show some passion. It’s all I ask.” – this could be a mantra for my life in general. I love the way that : “don’t be so fucking pedestrian.”

Looking forward to the move to nyc and the community that has developed there… see you in a few months.

We're decently intertwined, I've done a decent amount of coding in Lotus Notes, VB, Access, Java, and some others so when the different developers are talking to each other about a project, I (also nicknamed 'the translator') get brought in to help draw some parallels. Also love the mantra 'Show some passion' and 'don't be so fucking pedestrian'. Thanks for the insight...

Rather they have the idea and do the project management outsourcing everything(front & back end coding). Im always hoping to meet more developers at such events, but they are few and far between in my experiences.

Most of the people writing/publishing information today, are not gifted writers simply because this is not their strong point - - -actually it is one of their weakest points. So we have a situation where the information on the web is not necessarily up to 'editorial standards' whatever that means these days. I would suggest that all of these new writers look to improve their writing skills by getting a writing assessment from an outfit like PowerSuasion http://www.powersuasion.com or one of the colleges that have writing classes or something equivalent to that. BTW...I'm not a gifted writer and I took my own advice.
