Yes, of course we have an open social media policy

We embrace openness and customer engagement using the latest social media tools such as twitter, facebook and blogs*

* subject to prior approval, review, certain topic restrictions and we reserve the right to change our mind, terminating your network or your employment, now or at any time in the future. Have a nice day.

Tom Fishburne perfectly captures the reality of how many big companies really work. This may be painfully funny, but sadly I don't think it's all fiction...

Show the Whale!

Adam Keys and Geoffrey Grosenbach introduced the term for 2008 on the rails podcast: show the whale.

I think it's perfect (meaning site down/build broke etc), and in my lexicon already!

==> No, this is not the official fail whale logo! The real one was done by Yiying Lu, a talented young designer from China/Sydney, who is now world famous thanks to twitter's stability problems.

I want a t-shirt just like this for my birthday, except I'd change it to "..than MY blog" and add my url;-).
