Working in the New Media World
January 18th 2007
Managing the Gray #26 focuses on working in the world of new media.
Matthew Ebel called in a question about instant messaging etiquette and that got me thinking about a lot of things in this space. Things I’ve learned over the past few months working at home. I stayed sort of focused on me and what has and hasn’t worked for me in the hopes that it’ll start a conversation with all of you. Lots of gray on these topics that is far from being managed just yet. *grin*
Links that I mentioned in the show or that I think will be helpful include:

Here’s some suggested MTG tag lines. Some are fun. Some are risque.
Managing the Gray: New Media Podcast
Grayr 2.0 beta: it’s new media, baby
Because unattended gray leads to Enron
When all the colors run together
What you get when the crayons go home
Black and white scares me
Black and white tends to be wrong
The more I find out, the less that I know
I’m not that sure any more
Standing between old media and new
Gray is the new black
If you’re not thinking with gray, you’re not thinking
If you’re not thinking with gray, you’re thinking with the wrong head
The color you think with
The color of your mind
Between darkness and light
Between darkness and enlightenment
I totally forgot I did ask for these as a sort of aside during the show.
I’m giggling at “what you get when the crayons go home”
Managing the Gray … what color’s your crayon?
Should have been like this:

(your should show in italics as the word of emphasis)
[…] On yesterday’s Managing the Gray I talked about the power of video when it comes to chatting. How it brings people closer in a way that only voice and text does not work. Because of that my good buddy PW Fenton IM’d me and said “let’s video.” […]

Hey, C.C.
I thought you might appreciate knowing that there are others out there who believe you can never have enough screen real estate: http://www.stefandidak.com/office/.
As for taglines, shouldn’t it be “MTG colors your crayon”?
“cahier” is a French word for notebook, and, if you were in France or Montreal, you would pronounce it “KYE-yay”. Maybe the Moleskine folks have their own pronunciation, tho.
Thank you for letting me know. I had NO clue how to say it. I’m horrible with proper pronunciation of words. Always have been so thank you.
