happy 2012!
the thing is, we still live in a world that’s filled with opportunity. in fact, we have more than an opportunity – we have an obligation. an obligation to spend our time doing great things. to find ideas that matter and to share them. to push ourselves and the people around us to demonstrate gratitude, insight, and inspiration. to take risks and to make the world better by being amazing.
you get to make a choice. you can remake that choice every day, in fact. It’s never too late to choose optimism, to choose action, to choose excellence. the best thing is that it only takes a moment – just one second – to decide.

bottled life – a documentary on nestle’s water practices. pretty sure the other bottled water corporations are not much different.
UnBox Festival: exactly where i need to be next week. luckily, i already have my plane ticket and visa- extremely excited about this!
fully support this activism against SOPA/PIPA, glad to see it getting so much attention!
[UPDATE: first good news?]
interesting list of things to watch in 2012, painting a pretty bright picture for 2012.

seriously, this should be done every day at the supermarket. where do people think the meat comes from? (and usually the animals are treated much worse that those piglets had it..)
this might already be the viral music video of the year. almost 9 million views in 4 days, and heavily trafficked around my part of the net. seem like extremely likeable people as well, check out their facebook update:
educational yet funny short film with vinnie jones (that bad-ass british actor) on performing CPR – nice example of properly using a celebrity in your pro-social communication.
