An Internet Tool to Drown Out All That Background Noise

If you like white noise, there is SimplyNoise for you. It provides a choice of "white noise," "pink noise," and "brown noise." I'm working with it today and like it. 

A Creative Law Student and a Thought-Provoking Presentation about Presentations

Peter "Deuce" Bradshaw, a student at Stetson University College of Law, begins this presentation with "... So ... while sitting through a Trusts & Estates lecture, I started feeling annoyed. Because I was being hit in the face with information And then an analogy happened ..."

I love the ideas in this presentation and understand all too well that feeling of annoyance. If you are interested in taking your presentations to the next level, view this Slideshare and think.

I hope Mr. Bradshaw continues to bring his creativity to the practice of law.

Using Google to Find People on Twitter

I work in the business valuation profession and I've haven't found many valuation professionals active on Twitter. (See my Business Valuation list on Listorious. I will be updating it quarterly.)

However, there are many using Twitter and it can be a source of good information if you know who and what you're looking for. The search function in Twitter is good but limited. That's why I was glad to have found this post, "How to Find People on Twitter Using Google" from Twitter Power System Blog.

This post shows you how to:

• Search for Twitter users based on their name
• Search for Twitter users on the words used in their profiles
• Search for Twitter users based on the location in their profile
• Search for Twitter users based on the words used in their tweets

For example, when searching for business valuation professionals on Twitter from Google, in the Google search bar, I type:

site:twitter.com intitle:”on twitter” “bio* * business valuation”

There are more tips included in the post. If you use Twitter or are interested in following people in your profession, check this out.
