My daughter Whitney and her boyfriend Fredrick wanted to make sure Eliot and I knew exactly where we were this morning, so they left this note in the shower. My heart fluttered. The Florida Keys has this influence on you.
This is waterproof paper. You can write notes to yourself in the shower where you do your best thinking. Another wonderful invention thanks to the digital world.
Eliot was recently commissioned to take photos of one of the most magnificent apartments in New York City. I thought I would share them with you. Continue reading
Mayor Ed Koch
I have spent hours today trying to find evidence of something I heard on 1010 WINS all-news radio in New York. Yes, I listen to the CBS station when I am in Miami. There is an app for that.
The radio broadcaster who was one of the first to announce the death of Mayor Ed Koch on WINS this morning also said that most people didn’t know it but the Mayor was an inventor of some auto technology and actually patented it.
You never know who can post a picture of you on Facebook.
If you ever want to dissect someone’s personality, check out that person’s profile and postings on Facebook. Researchers at the University of Missouri claim Facebook profiles could be used as insight into mental health issues.
Hugh Hefner in the 1970s.
I will never forget the day I first saw Hugh Hefner’s private office. We were doing work for PIayboy Video and we visited their Chicago headquarters for a meeting. We were on a break so I decided to scout out Hef’s desk. The door to his office was opened but I was afraid to walk in. Standing at the entrance was enough for me to imagine the shenanigans that went on in there. I was thrilled, however, to be breathing the same air as that publishing genius. It is always fun to see where creativity takes place. Thanks to Mashable and LinkedIn, here are the offices of other entrepreneurs.

We get to a certain age and we start to wonder how many years do we have left to fulfill our dreams? Since I started DigiDame, I have noticed that many seniors are getting cranky because time is running out.
Don’t let another day go by without trying to get involved with something new. You will feel so much better if you try to make new things happen. One of the stumbling blocks for many of us to move forward is in the area of communications. We just are not the best writers/presenters. We don’t know how to get our ideas, creativity, and thoughts down on paper.
You are not alone. Even the best writers need editors. I am here to help you. I am involved in an editorial service that will make your copy/presentations grammatically correct and better written than ever.
They will take your copy and turn it into an interesting, lively, to-the-point, convincing document. Their handiwork can make a huge difference be it a letter, power point presentation, business proposal, website copy, case study, blog, article, email, social media post — you name it.
I will make sure it is a reasonable rate for you. Don’t let writing skills hold you back. I know how paralyzingly that can be. Let me help you. I will knock on your door too when I need your assistance. Don’t be shy. We don’t have a minute to spare.
YouTube wants to make lots of money. First sign of maturity. Google is tired of financing it. My sources tell me that the financials are still being worked out but YouTube wants paid subscriptions for individual channels.
YouTube wants content providers to offer channels that subscribers would have to pay anywhere between $1 and $5 a month. Of course, this would only hold true for content companies that have already demonstrated the ability to build and maintain a large presence on the video site (aka multichannel networks like Fullscreen, Machinima, and Maker Studios).
YouTube is also considering charging for content libraries and live events.
Revenue will be shared between all parties.
This is still only in discussions. Sounds like a great opportunity for video producers to make some money.
At the end of my workday I just want to blitz. If I am not going out. I go home, get undressed, put on a muu muu, and stretch out on the couch. Don’t bother me, don’t ask me to make decisions, just let me go into a semi-conscious state.
Most of the time I like to watch TV. If I fall asleep, all the better. I have my list of TV shows that I enjoy. My DVR allows me, to be me, and not miss a thing. I used to love watching American Idol but no more. It just took up so much of my time.
I thought I was rid of AI till I learned about a new its new app for iOS and Android. The free app allows you to access show content, past highlights, contestant performances and behind-the-scenes footage. We will now be able to follow real-time conversations and interact with other fans on Facebook and Twitter. We will also be able to vote for our favorite contestants via the AT&T American Idol voting platform on the app.
Don’t let me get started again. I need to focus on the Kardashians. What a life!
We’ve come a long way together .
I want to start by thanking you for reading DigiDame. To date, I have written 312 blog posts, one post per day, seven days a week. It’s been hard work. But now, glutton for punishment that I am, I want to publish more than once a day.
The reason is that I really need to start focusing on building my daily uniques (daily visitor statistics). So I may (may is the operative word) start posting interesting stories several times a day to share all the interesting bits I come across in the course of my work.
Why am I telling you this? First, I believe the inner workings of the digital community will continue to be of interest to you. Secondly, I’d like to ask you the favor of clicking through to the DigiDame website, http://www.digidame.com, instead of just reading posts in your email notification. This will increase my uniques, and my prospects for establishing DigiDame as an influential blog.
I am told that the more I post, and the more keywords I tag, the more additional eyeballs I will get. And hopefully, the better up-to-date you will be! We will learn more as I increase the posts.
Usually, I post before 11:59 pm every night so that WordPress can send out DigiDame to my subscribers in the wee hours of the morning. The additional posts may arrive at any time of the day, so keep an eye out.
Please remember to visit http://www.digidame.com each day. Links and videos will work better, the posts look better there, and, best of all for me, my numbers will go up!
Thanks in advance for supporting me and DigiDame.
Would you like to go back?
