Oh my. The social media/networking world just got bigger. Thanks Google.

Now, am I supposed to spend another chunk of time, time that I don’t have, exploring Buzz? What am I to do? I’m starting to feel overwhelmed. Clay Shirky tells us we aren’t suffering from information overload, but from filter failure. I think he’s right. The solution? Is there one?

For me the solution is to ground myself in my work. By reminding myself that photography, meaningful photography, is the goal, I can give purpose and meaning to my social media endeavors.

Along these lines I hope you will join me in taking on Jack Hollingsworth’s challenge to produce one meaningful image a month.

Great point Sam. Never lose sight of the bigger picture.

of course it's still a bit funny that you blogged about it instead of just going out shooting… ;)
