   “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.

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.
