Slacker Manager: The unspoken language of…:
If a picture is better than a thousand words, then a person’s body language has got to “speak” volumes. A lot of the focus on body language at work has been on how to avoid looking all twitchy and nervous. Not much is mentioned about how to use body language to get people out of your office. And I’m not just talking about that bare-toothed hiss that you’ve perfected. Here are a select few tips for your unspoken pleasure. Some are classics, others are more subtle. All are effective…

classic, i actually use the ‘fast walking’, but it is natural, i’ve always used it.

Wikimedia Commons:

Not sure why I hadn’t run accross the Wikimedia Commons site before today, but I’m glad I finally did. Every time I find another wiki site like this I just find the concept very powerful. I just think it’s so cool that people would put their work into the public domain without the normal restrictions that copyright imposes. There are pictures, paintings, maps, drawings, audio files…and it appears new submissions are coming fast and furious.

On a side note, it’s actually pretty impressive the way the Wikimedia Foundation seems to be growing. If people start to really accept the idea of sharing content for the greater good, we may very well be on our way to a better place.

Looking at some of the premium photos, I think a masthead redesign here just may be in order…
