The Strategy of Doing New Things

I have always been one of these people that doesn't like "not knowing" what's going on. So, it's no wonder that I have become somehwhat addicted to the whole buyer-behavior component of things.  It seems that every day there is a new internet tool or gadget to try.  Just yesterday, I got into two new tools.  Posterous- which is where I'm writing this from and LifeSnapz. 

I'm writing this from posterous because I want to give it a shot and see what the real benefit is.  Still working on that.  It's supposed to be longer than a tweet and shorter than a blog post.  I'm not sure I know how to do that.  But then again - I wasn't sure that I could say anything in under 140 characters either.  So that's the first lesson in applying a strategy of doing new things.  You have to give them a fighting chance. 

By the way - if you want to insert a picture -- I guess you should do a blog post.

Lifesnapz is a twist on FLickr.  It's supposed to give you tha ability to combine pictures from various sources and then plot them out on a time and location line.  Haven't gotten that far - if you do - let me know.

OK - that's about shorter than a blog post.  Off I go.  Next time - I'm going to write something from the e-mail to see if it's better, different, easier -- what.  Still looking for the value on this one.
