My thoughts are that Europeans don’t see the value in the narcissistic view that anyone cares where they are every moment of the day. Foursquare is for people who’s Egos are so huge that facebook is not enough.

Hallo Ryan,

Indeed, amazing development opportunities with mobile apps. From simply having access to info like weather reports, commodity rates, transport schedules, to applications for calculations, transactions, and appointments…it’ll be exciting times.
I’m looking forward to getting more involved in programming, but never forgetting the importance of branding, unique value proposition, and utility.

Comment on Don’t follow your passion… by Richard Davies

Hi all,

not sure if this is actually about following one’s passion or not.
I might be obsessed with becoming a ski -diver, train my whole life through, cut short on friendships and relationships because of the need to relocate every two months, etc. and maybe, when I realize I am still not number one (because of a lack of luck or talent) I might burn out, feeling like I have burnt all bridges except for the one I just fell off. That’s, as far as I see it, just lack of vision, immaturity, not selfishness.
What makes a lifetime dream sustainable is, to me, something else. I think it’s all about feeling unique. As long as I feel like people are wanting me to do my job “my way” because they like it, I could be doing any job with a smile on my face.
That’s why we know successful people by their names, and not by their ranking in a professional chart or their achievements on wikipedia: because they did whatever they did THEIR way, not in the BEST way.
In a nutshell, I won’t just obsess on doing something, rather I’ll do anything people will want me do to “my way”: it’s the most sustainable kind of happiness ever and it leaves tons of space for other hobbies.

cheers

Richard

PS: Rumor has it, the World Economic Forum has got itself a quite impressive number of employee burnouts…
