Second Look: Parachutes, Billboards, and Opera

by Daria Steigman on August 18, 2009

Each week I’m highlighting 3 or 4 posts, surveys, and other news that I have read and/or tweeted about that you may not have seen. As the name implies, I think they deserve a second look.

Here’s your second look for this week:

  • Who Packs Your Parachute? All Things Workplace’s Steve Roesler uses a simple anecdote to make a big point about valuing everyone who helps you succeed each day.
  • Crowdsourcing Opera. Story about London’s Royal Opera House, which is crowdsourcing a new opera via tweets. Creative use of social media to expand your audience. Plus, opera plots are so silly this might just be an improvement.
  • Billboards Rule. Drew McLellan’s post about a brilliant billboard campaign in 1989 Buffalo is must-read storytelling.
