Death by Blogging, Going Green and some groovy Interactive Ad Campaigns…
Posted by Nick de Klerk on April 10, 2008
Yup, this headline made me sit up too… While trawling the RSS feeds for bite-size chunks in interesting news, this article posted on the New York Times website really caught my eye. Reading it made me realise 2 things that guys who spend too much time online are either waaaay out of shape or that too much stress and pressure can be dangerous to your health… then again every job has pressure and stress, right?
There is an interesting blog post debunking this whole article though after reading this, I feel as though my online consumption habits are still within safe norms and I think am in no danger of “logging off” while hunched over my keyboard especially while doing something incongruous like blogging….
But just to make sure that I keep the pressure and stress off, I thought I would get involved in a greener and healthier online environment… Yup, to ease the daily pains (and to help your social conscience) visit and sign-up to Greenopolis. People band together online, to date, discuss politics or lose weight … this all happens in a community whose members help each other live in a more earth-friendly manner. Pretty cool!
See, don’t you feel better already…
