My friend, Mike Heath, recently created a promotional video for Compassion International using kinetic text. I love how words can have a personality. Cool storytelling and an impressive way to grab our attention.

An ocean of ones and zeroes
The amount of connectivity the Internet gives us is mind boggling. Mind. Boggling. I came across this on Hubspot this afternoon, which proves the point:
- 90,000,000,000,000 (that’s trillion with a “T”)…the number of emails sent via the Internet in 2009.
- 500,000,000…active Facebook users.
- 126,000,000…blogs on the web.
- 2,000,000,000…videos viewed on Youtube today.
So, suffice it to say that there is a lot of conversation, noise, and messaging happening right now. Question is, how does one person compete for meaningful attention in a world measured in 1′s and 0′s (lots of ‘em)?
