The Best Social Tools from Social Media Weekend
Remember that classic Super Bowl ad showing cowboys herding cats? Well, the challenge may feel much the same for social media users, even adept ones like journalists and journalism educators who revel in the technology’s transformative power but who can find themselves drowning in the torrent that pours non-stop from social platforms like Twitter, Facebook and dozens of smaller ones. So when social media experts gather, as 500 or so did at Social Media Weekend, hosted by Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism in New York last weekend, they naturally spend lots of time griping about the overload, then frenetically sharing notes about the technologies and techniques that’ll keep them afloat as they brave the social media flood. Below are some of the new tools and best practices that emerged at the confab. And if you know of others, please take a moment to share them in the comments section below. Staggering volumes of content But first some stats to put things in perspective.

Técnicas de desarrollo de la Creatividad: Mapas mentales
El Mapa Mental es una técnica desarrollada por el psicólogo británico Tony Buzan a mediados de los años 90. Con ella accedemos a los espacios mentales de una forma más creativa. Es una técnica gráfica con la que organizamos las ideas a partir de una imagen central y desde la que se generan nuevas ideas acompañadas de otras imágenes que se relacionan con la idea central. Esta técnica tiene en cuenta la forma en que el cerebro recoge, procesa y almacena información. El resultado final es una imagen visual que facilita obtener la información que encierra, analizarla, completarla… Este método permite que las ideas generen otras ideas y podamos ver cómo se conectan, se relacionan y se expanden libres de cualquier tipo de organización lineal. Un aprendizaje visual permite reforzar la comprensión, invita a integrar nuevo conocimiento, identifica errores conceptuales e incomprensiones, ayuda a depurar el pensamiento. ¿Qué es un Mapa Mental? Un soporte para estructurar las ideas. 1. 2. 3. ¿Cómo? 4.

"We are seeing how very important it is to bring about in the human mind the radical revolution. The crisis is a crisis in consciousness. A crisis that cannot anymore accept the old norms, the old patterns, the ancient traditions, and considering what the world is now with all the misery, conflict, destructive brutality, aggression, and so on, man is still as he was, is still brutal, violent, aggressive, acquisitive, competitive, and he has built a society along these lines." –Jiddu Krishnamurti The Zeitgeist Movement is not a political movement. This movement is about awareness, in avocation of a fluid evolutionary progress, both personal, social, technological and spiritual. An important association, upon which many of the ideas of this movement are derived come from an organization called " The Venus Project" directed by social engineer and industrial designer, Jacque Fresco.

Rivers of Blood speech
Rivers of Blood speech (česky Řeč o proudech krve) byl kontroverzní politický projev o imigraci, který 20. dubna 1968 v Birminghamu pronesl britský konzervativní politik Enoch Powell. Hlavním tématem projevu byla takzvaná antidiskriminační legislativa navrhovaná tehdejší socialistickou vládou, která by kriminalizovala projevy negativních postojů vůči přistěhovalcům v některých oblastech života Britů. Powell prohlásil tuto legislativu za urážející a nemorální. Důsledek projevu pro Konzervativní stranu je hodnocen rozporuplně, podle některých komentátorů byla tato řeč jednou z hlavních příčin jejího překvapivého volebního vítězství v roce 1970, podle jiných komentátorů jí ubrala hlasy z řad přistěhovalců. Rasové nepokoje v řadě britských měst v 80. a 90. letech zapříčiněné přistěhovalci z neevropských zemí a vysoká míra kriminality a nezaměstnanosti u přistěhovalců jsou podle Powellových sympatizantů důkazem pravdivosti pesimistické předpovědi, kterou tento politik učinil již v roce 1968.
