You… are a professional communicator, parent, family member, teacher, friend, or just someone who wants what you say to be remembered. But, you ask, how do you do that, exactly?

MADE TO STICK

In their book Made to Stick (affiliate link), brothers Chip and Dan Heath describe their journey of analyzing messages that have stuck with us. They looked at urban legends, proverbs, and other forms of communication that people across history have been able to remember.

They have been able to identify six characteristics of messages that persist. They even came up with a handy, sticky acronym to help us remember them: the SUCCESs. (more…)

Over the past couple years, I have had the privilege of being interviewed for my thoughts on domestic violence awareness, social media, and searching for a job in the 21st century.  In one case, I was asked to contribute an article to a newsletter.  I have put links to all of these, where available, on the Media page.

Daniel Johnson, Jr.

Someone recently asked me to provide a short bio for myself.  I like how this turned out and am going to put it on my About page:

Daniel Johnson, Jr., from Cincinnati, Ohio, has been spending time in the new media playground for over eight years, working on various projects and connecting with others online and in-person. He has 13 years of experience developing solutions that provide information to help people do their jobs and make better business decisions.

As the Founder of the New Media Cincinnati social networking group, he organizes and runs monthly events where people in the Greater Cincinnati area come together to discuss how emerging technologies can be used for fun and profit. Daniel has spoken around the Cincinnati area about how social networking tools can be used in effectively building an online presence.

His super powers include making connections easily and bringing out the best in others, his contagious enthusiasm, and skill in explaining complex subjects in ways that are simple and easy to understand.

I’ll be experimenting with some various WordPress themes, now that it seems I know enough to get myself into trouble.  Feel free to leave any thoughts in the comments.

Current theme (as of this inital post): DeepBlue

Update: Somehow while creating and/or saving this post, the text appears to be copied onto the previous posts.  I’ve checked the back-end, and the posts appear to be fine. Hmm.

Update: This appears to have been a problem with index.php. I have also changed the header tags to use h2 instead of h3. Little things mean a lot, it seems.
