Perspectives

Ah, sweet happiness when I get to finish my readings today on Bloglines. Here are three particular stories I would like to highlight that caught my interest:

• LIFE Magazine Photo Archives Arrive in Google Image Search-Thanks to Adam Ostrow for penning this. Kudos to Google for working with Life Magazine to bring this excellent piece of innovation to the web. Now users will be able to google images published in the photo journal magazine online and have access to a multitude of pictures that chronicle American history.
• 5 Ways Social Media Will Change Recorded History-Thanks to Ben Parr for a quick list of the top 5 ways social media is changing how people today keep track and record history. I like.
• Chinese Teen Beating & Humiliation Videos: Viral or Virus?-This was pretty horrific to say the least. I actually didn’t dare to click on the accompanying links that highlighted this very depressing story. It shows an online video that has been circulating around China, showing a teenage girl being bullied by other teens her age. In fact, it was two videos showing two separate bullying of two different girls. But what kept me thinking were the list of questions that were written below the post.

Some food for thought.
