About me
I'm a self-taught communicatrix with real-life training in multiple disciplines: writing, acting and design.
Why I use Clipmarks
Clipmarks rolls all the stuff I love about the web into one ultra-fab 2.0 package. (Ha ha...I said "package"...) Almost too easy. Nah. Just right.

 And while we're on the subject, why have none of you told me about this Violet Blue person? Huh? HUH!? Jeez. I have to do *everything* myself.

Are you worthy of what came before you?
communicatrix
by communicatrix  6-17-2008    1
 It's a one-two punch: the questioning and the striving. Like the man said, the point is not to be perfect; the point is never to take things for granted.

Rural, racist America

 B*lls-out discussion about racism's contribution to the Democratic primary, and how things may play out. God, I'm naive...and I fear for us all...

Not the cover of the Rolling Stone
communicatrix
by communicatrix  5-21-2008   
 Comprehensive-but-brief (and well-written, laws-a mercy!) sketch of the huge shift in the music industry and what "making it" means today. 100% applicable to any pursuit once requiring mass exposure/consumption: just shift the particulars.

 They will not be satisfied until they drag us all back by the hair to 1986. Good luck with that, by the way.

A blowhard's take on The Game
communicatrix
by communicatrix  5-14-2008   
 Michael Blowhard always points towards good stuff. Even when "good" means "interesting, yet mildly nauseating."

POPS
No more PR spam
communicatrix
by communicatrix  5-9-2008   
 The clip is from a comment by Merlin Mann, but overall the comments--and post--are great. As Brian Oberkirch pointed out on Twitter, from the small amount that reaches (and annoys) me, a nothingblogger, I cannot imagine what the big boys have to put up with. Once again, a bunch of idiots ruin everything for a few smart, nice people who Get It.

 Lowest common denominator is as lowest common denominator does. And sells to.

You are not your resume
communicatrix
by communicatrix  5-6-2008    5
 The inimitable Liz Ryan sums up why iconoclasm is the only answer to change. (There's a bunch of pretty good advice about Facebook, too, if you're new to it, but I f*cking hate Facebook.)

Why textbooks suck
communicatrix
by communicatrix  3-25-2008   
 A fascinating--and horrifying, if you care at all about education--look at how the books schools use to teach your kids get made. Corporate greed, pandering to special interest groups, lowest-common-denominator thinking: all your favorite characters on parade here, parents!
