Scoop.it!
This link was selected by Howard Rheingold and links to a youtube video of the webinar on techniques for information management. I have not listened to it but what caught my eye and why I want to go back and study this video is the phrase "Use your brain, not search" Keeping your brain working well is like exercise -- and using search lets our brains just get flabby. (My theory - will listen and summarize later)

Visual Skills to the ticket out of being overwhelmed
-------------- This piece was posted by Loren Sorenson for Hubspot, I selected it because as she says "If you aren’t prepared for the visual content revolution, you may be left in the dust.
Not convinced? Let's take a look at exactly how visual contentis positively contributing to marketing strategies -- it may just give you the push you need
"Learn why visual content is a critical part of your content creation strategy.
Here are some highlights:
**People remember only 20% of what they read
**83% of learning is visual
Condenses and Explains Large Amounts of Information
**Today, there is too much information on the Internet you have about 3 seconds to catch someone’s eyes so they'll consume your information.
Gives Your Brand an Identity
**Visual content draws people in, letting viewers better understand your brand's identity
Drives User Engagement
**If you've ever read a book with a child, you probably know they find pictures more interesting than words; but are adults really that different?

Thank you for adding me to your wiki and for all your kind words, it's greatly appreciated! Yes, this is a very hot topic at the moment and I'm sure you did it justice with your presentation at the conference. Would love to hear it, do you have an audio?

Thanks for looking forward to seeing this info. Knowing you, I can imagine that you want to start another scoopit on this topic but it's not necessary because you're already doing a wonderful job covering it now. Delete the scoop?
