About five months ago I was asked by Brian Shaler to do a presentation at Social Media Club. It felt awkward for me. I didn’t feel part of the Social Media scene and I wasn’t even sure what it was. I did think that perhaps speaking about community would be a good fit. We were moving along with Gangplank and it was something that had been occupying a lot of my mental attention. I decided to make a quick mind map to see if I could come up with something to present.
From this map I created an outline. Unfortunately, I have since tossed out that document. From that outline I was able to create the following presentation.

Lately, I have been trying to understand how my mind processes information, in hope that I can become more effective digesting a wider stream of data. I am consciously trying to save more artifacts used in my thought process for future study and reflection, but that is a whole other post.
