Don't Stop by Gin Wigmore

You ever listen to one of your playlists and are suddenly like, "Huh? I don't remember putting that song on there?!" I just rediscovered this wonderful tune! ๐Ÿ˜‰

ONE SONG EXPERIMENT

What is the one song that jazzes you up or just resonates with your very being? If your car radio was stuck in the on position and could only play one song, what would it be? Don't think, just comment!

The Best Engagers on Google+ by Carter Gibson

Wonderfully complimentary words from +Carter Gibson about engagers on Google+. I'm honored to be on the list — and not the naughty one for once. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Check these folks out; many are the people I watched and learned from when I first got on Google+, Carter especially. You'll resonate with some more than others, but that's part of the beauty of finding your way here — the amount of good people to get involved with that are willing to spend some time back with you too. I'm trying not to just parrot everything Carter said, but darn it, he said it best. Circling them assures a better stream.

The Best Engagers on Google+
Circle. Share. Enjoy.

Engagers are better than power users. Power users just post often and are shared for their dedication to posting, but not for their dedication to actually talking to you. I'm not so sure that's the best way to share. The people in this circle not only have a wide variety of quality posts, but have built a community they're dedicated to bringing new people into. They're consistant, thoughtful, and many of them I consider my real life friends. Circling them assures a better stream.

Not included? Sorry! Maybe I forgot you! Send me a DM instead of commenting about it below.

Okay… Let's Talk for a Minute

I almost didn't share this because it was from Tyra Banks with a big picture of Tyra Banks. How bad is that? I'm not ashamed to admit I've watched more than my fair share of Top Model, and that's mainly where I have seen her in past years. I don't know her besides what I see on TV and in publications; I think she has a talk show too. I just don't associate her with words of wisdom for my life.

I like the message, though. I like it a lot. It pertains to careers and more relevant to me lately, how I interact on Google+. Don't chase the numbers or popularity, be yourself and post what you are passionate about. Like anything, the rest will come. So, the message wins. Enjoy!

Thanks +Tyra Banks for the post. A few notes to your PR people: (1) Feel like you are hitting us over the head with the Harvard sweatshirt. (2) Really, you are going to post on G+ and you have a Facebook tag? How about nothing, or at least both. Okay, done.

Aspiring for a better life, by Yvan Da Silva

Some good words I wanted to share from a fellow G+er. If you have a few moments, worth a read, and especially a comment for him. Honestly, I wish I had much more time to spend reading and getting to know so many of you because I know I'm missing a lot. I'm going to try and make it a goal to meet more people in real life; I think, as Dan states, that would make a better tomorrow. ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks to +Yvan Da Silva for sharing his personal thoughts. Oh, and he's right, you have to play the song while you read. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Reshared post from +Yvan Da Silva

Step 1 : Push the play button
Step 2 : Start reading my post
—– It's 1:30 AM,
My motivation late at night.
—-
I am writing this as my eyes start to close by themselves. I have been thinking for years about my life and what I wanted to do.
I don't think I achieved much yet, but you are the ones that motivate me, unknown or friends your are my daily inspiration.

You might think that you are not important, or that you have no effect on the world you live on. But you are the ones that I dream about, the ones that I care about.
I might not know you, I might be wrong about you, but as long as you are there alive, there is always a way for taking it trough.

I met new people the last 3 years that have considerably changed my view of life. I have no regrets about what I think, about the choices that I made, about what I did.

I have found more inspirational posts and talks on Google+, YouTube, Blogs and Twitter than I ever had read or listen to in my entire life. Sometimes it's hard to believe and see further. Sometimes we are just blinded by the present, unable to move our eyes from looking the ground right bellow our feet.

I am not a native English speaker, nor a great speaker, but I have will, I go forward even when things fall bellow my feet. I keep moving, because moving is living.
If you fall on the ground, the best way to start walking again is to get up, we often think that life is too hard, that this and that is impossible, but we know that's not true. We know that we are the only ones behind what life looks like.

Today we should build our minds as we build our bodies, learn as our muscles grow, dream as wherever our feet take us, smile at life as our lungs inhale, relax as our lungs exhale, discover the world as our cells age, think as we run, fast clear and precise, support others as our bones support our entire flesh&blood, and respect others as our eyes, ears, nose and hands tell us the different colors of life.

I have a conviction, that we all can aspire for a better life, that we all, by our own way can change the face of the world. We have forget what is wrong or what is right, and we often let things happen.
No one is better than you are, no one is as lazy as you are, no one looks like you do, no one love like you do. Because you are unique, you can change your own life just by thinking, organizing, seeing things differently. Stop looking at your feet and held your head high!

Even if your life is perfect at the moment, think about something you cold do that could improve that perfection, you may found some happiness and enjoy a better tomorrow.

Yvan.
— It's 2:10 AM

Step 3 : Share this post and add your love & motivation to it (I will read and comment your shares)

The Condiments Song

The Death of a Thousand Condiments

This is the punishment in a little challenge my brother and I have. I promise you, it will be messy.

In a nutshell (fitting) we each picked 50 active users and put them in a shared circle. We wrote down how many followers each user had. At the end of the week we are going to check their followers. The team with the biggest increase in overall followers wins. Either Keith or myself will be the first to experience "THE DEATH OF A THOUSAND CONDIMENTS!" http://goo.gl/K93J3

Original challenge can be found here:

Over six days and many more hours per day than ever intended, +Keith Cramer and +Scott…

Over six days and many more hours per day than ever intended, +Keith Cramer and +Scott Cramer combed through hundreds of G+ user profiles and thousands of posts.

The intent?
To put together a circle of 100 frequently posting interactive interesting eclectic awesome users.

The twist?
We're brothers. Of course it became a contest. 50 picks each, recording the number of followers for each user at the time they were selected. Today we share our circles of 50. Friday (somewhere around midnight EST) we will revisit every profile and record the number of followers again for each user. The team with the greatest increase in overall number of followers wins!

The punishment?
Lunch was lame. We'll still do lunch. What has been discussed in hushed tones around the home and office has been dubbed, "THE DEATH OF A THOUSAND CONDIMENTS!!!" << http://goo.gl/ruosV >> Something so horrific that it deserves it's own post! << http://goo.gl/K93J3 >>

WHAT TO DO!
To my team: We hope that you will take a look at your team's shared circle. If you find it worthy, please share it on your stream and promote it. Continue to be your awesome selves and, hopefully, continue growing and being circled by your G+ peers. Some of you are already well on your way to a large circle of followers. Some of you are new and maybe just need a little visibility.

To public: If you like the circle, feel free to add! Brother is posting his team's circle on his stream also at this very moment. At the end of the week, we'll post the combined circle.

Next?
After Friday we will create one shared circle with all of you in it! If you have not already done so, we hope that you will all add each other and promote each other to your streams. We will be doing the same for all of you. We will also post whatever stats we have on this social experiement and ideas we have for doing more in the future. Particularly we want to concentrate on people who are not as active but are still valued G+ users who might just need a little help to get to the next level. Any and all ideas or commentary welcome!

Nope, copy machines do not make actual copies of babies yet. The monkey face is kind of surreal.
