Latino Rebranded: Latinos and Social Media

Subtitle:  You have to think, to blog.
Subtitle II: Social Media Is The Greatest Improv Theater (It irks me when I like my subtitles more than the actual post title).

This would be my first improv post, inspired from improv theater.

I’m going to write and let it flow.  It’s an exercise in fearlessness or in Spanish, an exercise in bollas (if that’s offensive, then gonadas…if still, then valiente).

It would be very cool if you could of seen this as I wrote it. I could of planned that out, but then it would of lost it’s improvness (I know… not a word).

Here’s some advice: if you’re going to do something, you should do it right. If you’re going to blog, get a grammar book and learn to write. If you don’t like to write, but still want a blog then hire someone to do it for you – Ghost Blogger. It would be nice, if you let people know about the stand-in, like Guy Kawasaki admits he does.

After a grammar book, comes a book on writing. Clear writing to get your message across would be key in a blog, no?

But we can’t say much on writing without talking about thinking. Clear writing, comes from clear thinking. If you can’t think, then you won’t write good. Sorry, they are related and you’ll have to do some thinking in order to have a blog…there are some exceptions thought, lol.

So, now we know why writing is hard, because thinking is hard. It’s a shame how many people can’t think write.

UPDATE:  So I was thinking (yes, I do that from time to time), wouldn’t social media as a whole be the largest improv theater in the world?  Twitter being first w/ text, and Facebook w/ pics.  With social media’s immediacy and push-button publishing, I’m sure most of it is made up as we go along.

Subtitle:  The Need To Pursue Media

The ability to cement your message within the stream of media conversation is more vital NOW than ever before.  We stand at the cusp of change.

With history unfolding before us, we must ensure our views engage the forefront of America’s, and thus the world’s conciousness.  Otherwise, others will define everything for us.

This is why I’m a huge advocate of new media.  It  provides the tools, which enables the masses to thrust forth with their stories and viewpoints.

If you are not so inclined, that’s okay but please support those who express this interest.

What do you write when you don’t know what to write? They call that writer’s block.  The only way through it is to write whatever:  whatever you see; whatever you think; whatever you smell.  The trick is to get the creativity flowing through effort instead of waiting for the Muse to inspire you – she, my friends is a fickle thing.

So there you go.  A post that is about nothing, which is actually saying something.  I’m outta here.
