Consumption

You can repair: the way we consume is in eternal transformation. I remember when I discovered the site Submarino and how it was surreal and scary to buy and pay for Internet purchases and receive at home. But while we can buy without touch the product, we increasingly try it before buying and this is a great niche, especially for marketers. He had read something about experiential marketing and today I read that Apple has launched a section called " Try Before You Buy "where you test the product before consuming it.

Hitchhiking on it, I share this view on the revolution in the way we consume with the advent of Web 2.0. In the same text, has a link to another text, fine, called " Consumer 2.0: They want to know everything about you . " There, just that comment, that way we consume has changed and that companies need to know to monitor and understand such changes.

From there, I asked myself the same way that we consumers want to know more about the organizations that "interact" with people, organizations in general can also learn "everything" about us? Does all the information exchanged on the Internet may be monitored? Was researching this I found this text on "net neutrality":

"The main concept of this idea is that the Internet is a democratic medium, and all information that travels through it are treated the same way, always at the same speed, available to any Internet user. Every site should and can be accessed in the same way, just like any online service or application connected. Net neutrality basically means that any content on the Internet should be equally accessible to any person without interference to traffic online. "

Links yummy fashion and more ...

Specialists in fashion, update me if you are talking rubbish, but for some time now Brazilian fashion is more and less imported copyright or is it just me? Perhaps our tendencies still have some of the earlier collection from the outside, maybe. Below is a selection of links juicy, not necessarily Brazilian, but fashion:

# 1
The designer Carlos Miele, M. Officer and responsible for the brand name which famous international garment, perhaps a good example of a successful artist with the banner "made in Brazil." The video channel of Vogue for the first time made a documentary about him and video, besides being the most watched channel, tells a bit about his interest in architecture and international market. You can check here:

There is a delight when you see your friends going right? A few years ago, Eduardo Biz was the friend of a friend, newly arrived from the south and fashion student. Today the brand manager of Brats Some releases collections of shirts and sweaters that are overcome increasingly entitled to recognition of Lilian Pacce and appearances on primetime television.

# 3
I also like to see how the Internet has democratized some fashion. Some organize bazaars , others create real networks to exchange and sale of clothes and so on. From outside comes this lovely hint of Supermarket Sarah , a woman who decided to make a wall of his house in a showcase of findings in constant update with the right partner newsletters sporadic guests, a proposal well intimate to receive them for tea and go shopping.

Who I am, where am I going and where I came

How did you get here? Found by chance? It's one of ours?

We have a link where we present ourselves, but we are constantly changing - thank goodness - and we thought it important at this time, do a post copyright and restated. Sometimes written in the singular, sometimes we talk about collective, but more importantly it is our quest to exchange ideas on topics of interest inspiring commonalities. We may not have a ready answer and finally to "Who I Am," but we certainly know talk about who I am. "

Our old childhood had an environment more, the yard. There, wherever it was, was a gathering place for those who wanted to talk about what they wanted. This blog is the virtualization of this area. Until then we were employees of various companies that had in common communication as a tool for work and lifestyle. Now we are creating a face, an identity, a DNA. The initiative is of Volpone Communication , an agency that is in the air with new site and want to share their work and findings of links to photography, fashion, design, illustration, web, advertising and trends the whole universe of communication.

In addition to our signature, we also have an alter ego: a Kiki Bellini. The Kiki is our projection, our live virtual representation of ideas, thoughts, philosophies, people, beliefs and intentions. The Kiki is on Facebook , and want to have you there as well.

The Yard is also on Twitter ( @ quintalrevista ) and is available to be shared in post the post footers. Our intention is to be increasingly online and interactive, always looking for the symbiosis, the exchange between " alternative thinking much different with the attacks of intense convergent thinking . " If it is to summarize what we spend, we can say that simple: we want your company.

The limits of photography

For some time now, I won many friends photographers. That's not to say that my circle of contacts is more artistic, but - it seems - is easier to "be" photographer. I speak from what friends who work with stills not very attractive at first sight and argue that their rents with friends to places and people that click so incredible and have yet to ask for pocket money for the patriarch.

We are facing a proliferation of art-visual, the result of new ways to share and exchange files or witnessing a mistake? " I do not think we are following the profession of prostitution, but maybe the trivialization of the concept. Perhaps the professional photography faces the same dilemma of a journalist before the debate on the requirement or not the diploma. How to harmonize this? I do not know. In the absence of an opinion or argued more convincingly put myself in the chair who, for now, only monitors.
Caught hook to comment other recent and related fact: a friend who had 03 of his photos censored on Facebook. The message went something like this: You carried a photo that violates our terms of use and it was removed. Facebook does not allow the publication of pictures that offend any individual or group, or that have nudity, drugs, violence or other violations of our Terms of Use. Policies are developed to ensure that Facebook remains a trusted and secure environment for all users, including children who use the site.

One of the photos (the album of the flick can be checked here ):
The photos are of a naked woman, with a footprint in the sensual, not pornographic, something more than TRIP magazine Glamour magazine. I considered a pretty picture and not offensive. When she was younger, nobody asked if the tub of Gugu was offensive to me, for example. I had the choice to watch it or not. I understand the argument used to, but to take a picture of the air, there is no choice, there is a condition.
In comments about it, until I realized that this is normal practice on Facebook and Flickr is more quiet. The photographer asked "offended whom?" And someone poetically replied, "the old fear of the body."
Trying to decide what I think about all this, I came across two very cool and relevant links. The first talks about the digitization of photography based on a publication - The Digital Dilemma - Strategic issues in custody and access to materials in digital cinema . The second is the hint of a fair, PhotoImageBrazil , which brings together and outlines the main trends technology and product development of images. The digital age and the convergence of imaging technologies have made the event became much more comprehensive and today we have the presence of suppliers of technology from other segments of the production of images "and it will happen on the day August 3 in Sao Paulo .
Based on this, I invite you to reflect on me.

All together now at the same time

# 1
A few weeks ago, this was the year crown. With the end of games, we try to bring the Brazilians to realize that this year is a little more than that, the election year. I think delicate political debate and there are always many exceptions to do. If some years the highlight was the emergence of electronic voting, Obama here we noted the significance of the Internet in election campaigns. Already posted earlier about the presence of presidential hopefuls on Twitter, now bring this text Site Other Words to a "letter to the candidates." The reading is intelligent and inviting to think in our country with a little more concern. Valid think we take politics more seriously, despite repeated - and agree - with the phrase Lima Barreto, that Brazil has no people, has the public.

# 2
Leaving the political sphere to the sphere of communication, Facebook has launched a page called " Facebook + Media "very good, with tips for journalists to make better use of social networking.

# 3
The Vice and Intel are jointly organizing the Project The Creators , 'a new network dedicated to celebrating the creativity and culture between the media around the world. " Fully linked in social networks, the project has two goals: "one is to be a modern media channel that will continuously identify and celebrate the work of visionary artists wherever they are. The other is to work as a studio for content creation, a kind of art institution, which will facilitate the production and dissemination of new works of these artists and their collaborators. "
Already enjoyed the idea itself, its attractions and Facebook also confirmed.

When people ask me about the Internet, I have always updates in the replies. I see the links above 03, 03 good alternatives.
