Starbucks Communism

Jared — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 13:52:07 +0000

Rain turned to slush in the skies over Clarks Summit, PA. I woke up, earlier than usual, to a soggy Monday morning with a mind to take advantage of the extra time before work. So I got ready, rotated the seedlings intended for this year’s garden, and naturally headed to Starbucks. The Clarks Summit Starbucks [...]

Spring Is the Best Time for Monday Morning

Unlike any other day of the week, Mondays offer you a fresh start and a chance to apply yourself, and your mad skills, to all the stuff that the week is about to chuck at you.

And so I pose the question: How does a company that is grounded in concepts and design trends dating back hundreds of years compete and be relevant in todays world and yet remain true to it's mission and values? How do we offer up the same resources (social networking tools, new media, deliverable content, etc) as the most cutting edge organizations without betraying the basic principles that have helped bring us into existence (ie: age, beauty, texture, and moral value)?

Okay folks, brace yourselves, I’m about to be rude. The Facebook version of Jared Brandon is no longer accepting invitations to participate in “dumb things.” The term “dumb things” refers to, but is not limited to the following: Poking (in any form) – Please keep your hands to yourself. Best Friends – Honestly, How many [...]

News of an airline crash in New York City reached me late in the afternoon of January 15, 2009. My first reaction, before hearing the full story, was of nervous fear as a flood of memories of the September 11th attacks swirled into my mind. Like the rest of the US population, I have a [...]

Decline In Lint Production

This may interest you… I recently discovered that I have a decreasingly productive belly button. Most people, particularly women and male models, believe that the navel has no real function. Many would relinquish their own because of this ignorant belief. It has been my observation however that the belly button is actually a multifunctional “inpendage.” [...]

This Just In!

While I was writing the previous post (scroll in a downward direction) I found a code to get into a new startup called Socialthing! It’s a site where you can connect many of your social networks together and update them from one place. I think it’s going to be awesome, and it’s still growing. Actually, [...]

Invite Yourself

As you know, social networking is the new sliced bread. And everywhere you look there are new social networks popping up. Personally, I’m not very good at it. It takes so much time and since I don’t have that much time to be taken, I’m afraid “I’m at the shallow end of the dream pool.” [...]
