It feels like Christmas morning for me today. I stumbled upon the site I've needed for more than six months. Its www.printablepaper.net, and the best resource for all types of note taking needs. Here's two situations that I can think of where this would have been an ideal site to have:
1. My favorite way to take notes in a meeting: Cornell Notes
2. When I was searching my office for graph paper, a coworker offered to whip some up in Illustrator for me. With this new bookmark the problem is solved!
OM's Blog of the Month - decor8
Most of you know that I was crafted out of a creative mound of clay. I began my career pursuit specifically in graphic design and crossed over into the business world. Honestly, I could not be happier.However, I love great design. What I love more is great design that allows us to breathe and think. The blog of the month, decor8, directs us well to find just that. I could spend hours at this site, and the selections in its blogroll.
Enjoy, my friends, and thanks decor8!
Breaking Apart the ARCI - C
Consulted -
In referring to our garbage analogy, who is consulted is not as clear. As it is in most households, Mom is never simply "told" what is going on. Mom may have a better idea on how to most effectively get the trash collected around the house. (And, she WILL have an opinion) So, in other words, Dad would consult with Mom on his plan and ask her for an opinion. This is two-way communication, and the true definition of the Consulted role of the ARCI.
Within the ARCI model this seems to be one of the most widely used roles. Because we work within a community structure and our world is creative, it is important for us to exchange ideas as much as possible. That of course, could be considered the pro, but must also be seen as a con. If there are too many ideas being exchanged and too many people being sought out for an opinion and stop gap is inevitable and very painful. This role is important and must be reasonable.
1. To seek advice or information of
2. To exchange views; confer.
