Let’s Get Naked: My Take on Transparency Online

Posted on 04. Mar, 2010 by Tammy Camp.

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind” – Dr. Seuss

Up until recently, the concept of transparency was little more than a buzzword for me. I wasn’t completely comfortable revealing certain things about my life online, and kept my personal life mostly private in favor of the professional.

However, starting this blog, being more active on social networks (like twitter and facebook), working on a posterous lifecasting site and receiving encouraging insight from English entrepreneur, Ben Way (@BenpbWay), I’ve slowly started to become more comfortable with online transparency.

It’s gotten to the point where I’m actually known for my transparency, and have become an advocate for getting naked… um, I mean, sharing about yourself online.

Palindrome of a Lost Generation

Posted on 24. Jan, 2010 by Tammy Camp.

A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite. This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen…forward and backward.

This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled “u @ 50″ by AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.

Which segment defines your point of view? Part 1 or part 2?

Blog Finds of 2009

Posted on 07. Dec, 2009 by Tammy Camp.

This year my search marketing firm, ComCorp, launched social media services. As a result, I resolved to finally start digging around on the Internet, exploring different blog types and personalities.

For years I’ve been completely avoiding entrance into the blogosphere. Why the hesitation?

I honestly expected it to be a community of whiny stay-at-home mommies that had fuck all to do with their time. Tell you the truth, though, was I completely mistaken. Not only did I find tons of interesting and cool peeps who blogged, but they in turn inspired me to start blogging on my own, just for kicks and giggles.

I know, I know – 180 degree turn in perspective… and I’m still recovering from whiplash. With that said, here are my top 7 blog finds of 2009:
