Comedy and self-promotion Sun, 01 Nov 2009 14:49:03 +0000 We headed out for taco salads and soup at the Easy Restaurant on King Street after our last class of improv comedy. My three classmates and the teacher were all deeply into the Toronto improv and sketch comedy scene. I was the lone non-comedian, and I got a fascinating glimpse into that world. They talked about [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

The man who should’ve used Connections Mon, 26 Oct 2009 14:17:31 +0000 Wow. There are some seriously talented IBMers out there. This is the latest installment in “The Man Who Should’ve Used Connections”, by Jean Francois Chenier (a project administrator at IBM Japan). He created it using Anime Studio, Garageband, and iMovie.

Public speaker worried about losing control? Don't have lectures – have conversations Fri, 09 Oct 2009 22:38:02 +0000 Public speaking is the greatest fear people have, and losing control seems to be the greatest fear that public speakers have. Like the way that companies have to adapt to social media's effects on brands, speakers have to adapt to the reactions that spread like wildfire through social tools, reaching people far outside the auditorium's [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Personal connection and a trip to the dentist Tue, 29 Sep 2009 21:05:53 +0000 A personal connection can make going to the dentist a lot of fun. I like going to my dentist. Part of it is because I get paranoid about my teeth, running to the dentist at the slightest hint of a cavity. Part of it is that my dentist's office is pleasantly quirky, adorned with well-shot portraits [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Deeper insights into private versus public Wed, 09 Sep 2009 19:27:37 +0000 I was on a panel with Luis Suarez, Jeannette Browning, and Bill Chamberlin about choosing the right social networking tools. The panel was particularly awesome because we had a lot of interaction both on the phone and in the text chat, and the questions drew out all sorts of interesting insights. A large part of the [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Social media changes real-life conversations Wed, 19 Aug 2009 15:04:16 +0000 Memnon Anon sent me a link to Matt Zimmerman's post "Social media has made me boring", which got me thinking because I have almost the complete opposite experience. My parents' Facebook updates and forum posts provide fodder for weekly chats and let me keep up to date across timezones. I feel much more in touch [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Combining multiple social media services Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:50:46 +0000 If you're new to social media and Web 2.0, you probably feel overwhelmed by all the different tools that are out there.

Log your accomplishments Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:02:29 +0000 If you've ever wondered where the day went, or where the week went, or where the month or year went, slow down. Take notes. Keep a diary, a journal, a blog, or whatever other way you want to keep track of your accomplishments and celebrate the little things. Notes don't lock you into the past. They [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Social media and education Thu, 18 Jun 2009 19:24:31 +0000 There's an insightful 82-page PDF entitled Educating the Net Generation: A Handbook of Findings for Practice and Policy. Support for the original work was provided by the Australian Learning and Teaching Council Ltd, an initiative of the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.

Twitter brings down walls Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:15:03 +0000 In addition to Twitter, YouTube has been a critical tool to spread videos from Iran when traditional media outlets have had difficulty filming the protests or the ensuing crackdown. One YouTube account, bearing the user name "wwwiranbefreecom," showed disturbing images of police officers beating people in the streets. On Monday, Lara Setrakian, an ABC News [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Notes from the Social Recruiting Summit Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:30:38 +0000 I love being part of industry conferences outside my field. I learn so much from the sessions and the conversations, and I meet all sorts of amazing people I might not otherwise have come across.

Helping people learn about Web 2.0 through stories Fri, 29 May 2009 01:18:13 +0000 I help people learn about social media and Web 2.0 through stories. Bullet points and screencasts aren't enough, but stories about how real people use these tools to reach out and connect can help inspire others to learn about and try those tools themselves. But I don't just tell stories. I make them, and that's my favourite, [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Feel free to use your laptop or your phone in my talks! I love the backchannel Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:34:23 +0000 If you ever find yourself in any of my face-to-face presentations, please feel free to bring out your computer, your phone, or whatever else you use. It's okay. In fact, it's more than okay. I love it. Some people–particularly presenters–hate it when others have their laptops open and are typing away. They feel it's disrespectful and [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Scarcity versus abundance in knowledge management Thu, 29 Jan 2009 15:43:51 +0000 If the thought of people stealing your ideas is what's stopping you from thinking out loud on a blog, you're not alone. It's a valid fear. If you're afraid of your ideas being stolen, your mindset is probably that of knowledge scarcity – that you should hoard knowledge because that's what gives you power. That [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.

Lessons learned from hosting today's IBM Web 2.0 for Business community call with Amy Shuen Tue, 20 Jan 2009 19:50:26 +0000 Hosting today's Web 2.0 for Business community call was nerve-racking, but I'd love to do it again. At the peak of the call, we had 98 people connected to the Web conference, with maybe three-quarters listening to the webcast. Our speaker was Amy Shuen, author of the Web 2.0 Strategy Guide, and she gave a [...]Post from: sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek.
