Everyone has experienced this at one time or other in their lives.
You’ve lived in some pretty crappy places, right?
One of the first places Web Watch lived was perfectly fine, other than the rather loud upstairs neighbor who took great pride in announcing to as many people who could hear her how much she loved God.
At least, she yelled out “Oh, God!” a lot… usually late at night. Every night. For weeks/months on end.
She was a fairly religious woman, we believe. Right?
People do a lot of stupid things on the Internet.
Here’s one thing that you need to NOT do:

Do you consider yourself a “people person”, or do you prefer to spend your working time alone – whether because you can get more done when you’re working by yourself or for some other, personal reason?
Some people just don’t do well working in groups. “Plays well with others” doesn’t apply to you.

They say that everything that you post on the Internet becomes part of the public record, and could affect you down the road if a potential employer decides to do a little social media digging to see whether you really would be a good employee or not.
Sure, some things could be attributed to a little venting in your status updates, but there’s also the possibility of trends emerging that you may not see unless you’re looking at your profile with a fresh set of eyes.

How many of you can say that you’re friends with a mortician?
Every circle of friends has a car guy, a computer guy, a music guy, a sports guy. Why not a death guy?
Besides, you almost need one of those around just to answer all the creepy questions that everyone inevitably has. When was the last time that you spoke to a funeral director when death wasn’t on the line?

Web Watch has mentioned Matt Harding before – he’s the guy who struck upon the absolutely perfect “job”, if you want to call it that, of traveling around the world and dancing.
And not just good dancing.
We’re talking really bad dancing.
And he’s been able to turn this hobby into a paying career of travel, music, Internet viral videos, and just bringing a little bit of joy and happiness to everyone he meets.
It’s a world-trotting flash mob.

Steven Corona is the Chief Tech Officer at Twitpic, according to his website.
So you would think that someone who is that involved with social media — such as the relationship between Twitter and Twitpic, that going even one hour without using any form of social media would be akin to telling a race car driver that he can only walk to work.
So can you do what Steven decided to do? Can you give up all forms of social media for thirty days?

Over the past few years, Web Watch has covered all sorts of information about what makes a pop song a hit.
We’ve talked about how you ONLY NEED FOUR CHORDS TO WRITE THE PERFECT POP SONG, how the KEY OF A SONG CAN PREDICT ITS POPULARITY, that MOST POP SONGS ARE ABOUT SEX, and even what the PERFECT SONG LENGTH should be for a hit song.
But now we have some science to thank for proving that everything Web Watch has told you in the past is absolutely true. See? It pays to read Web Watch and be on the cutting edge of everything!
