   “Howling hurricane of noise” pretty much sums up my facebook feed.. The future has arrived!

   A new medium: neither rare nor well-done

   Most commentary on social media ignores an obvious truth—that the value of things is largely determined by their rarity. The more people tweet, the less attention people will pay to any individual tweet. The more people “friend” even passing acquaintances, the less meaning such connections have. As communication grows ever easier, the important thing is detecting whispers of useful information in a howling hurricane of noise. For speakers, the new world will be expensive. Companies will have to invest in ever more channels to capture the same number of ears. For listeners, it will be baffling. Everyone will need better filters—editors, analysts, middle managers and so on—to help them extract meaning from the blizzard of buzz.

   PonyPonyShow: Entertainment is Dead

   front end or back end?

   tanya77:

   Entertainment is not a growth industry.

   You have a public that doesn’t believe they need to pay for entertainment online (for the most part) as viewing filmed material on the Internet is more akin to watching TV (and is therefore sponsor-supported) than it is to going to the theater. Then you…

   Anyone else ever notice that the power in any relationship lies with the one who cares the least?

    How James Taylor does his nails… Yes, that James Taylor, and, yes, fingernails…

Why the name?

"unquieted" = unsettled = a life in transition.

I'm starting over. I was always creative, but also had strong analytical skills, and was never afraid of technology. At a time when many of my law school classmates are making partner or running for governor, I am going back to my creative roots. Specifically, web design & digital art.

"unquieted" = a play on words.

I can be unquiet, i.e., noisy. I play drums, bass, guitar and once in a while I even try to sing. (But I'm an amateur these days... my creative outlets are visual.) And this blog is about not being quiet. The "ed" part is my name.
