In The Sphere: Day Jobs and Black Swans

Published on Feb 25, 2011   //  In the Sphere

Let’s go for another virtual stroll through the mall of blogs.

John Biehler, despite popular belief, does indeed still have a day job. Even so, he has found the time to tour Vancouver Island, visit with Whitehorse for Hockey Day, and chat with Jim Robson on the flight home. And he’ll be driving to Austin soon for SXSW too!

Cicy Chan has had some similar adventures, but they’ve been largely restricted to Sin City. She’s been sharing her experiences in Las Vegas, including the M&M Shop, Rainforest Cafe, and The Bank at Bellagio. From family friendly to a bumpin’ night spot, it sounds like she had a great time.

Chris Brogan takes a moment to provide us with an insider’s guide to social media etiquette. Are you doing the right thing when it comes to appearance, friending, conversation, disclosure, promoting, content production, and sharing?

Tyler Cruz has a guest post on his blog by Thomas that discusses a subject near and dear to many a would-be Internet professional: should you have one blog or many blogs? Naturally, there are pros and cons to either approach that need to be weighed quite carefully.

Ed Lau prepares us for Oscar Weekend by taking a look at Best Picture nominee Black Swan. Natalie Portman is “nothing short of brilliant” and the movie as a whole is “visually surreal” and “incredibly interesting.” Do you think it can beat The Social Network for the golden statue on Sunday?
