Come on now, Social!

Like most of us, I'm usually connected online! I'll wake up in
the morning, check my e-mail, facebook, and twitter stream, at
work it's either research or social media, when I'm mobile it's
my iPhone!

I'm a social person by nature and it's the old saying "Everyone
has a story" that fuels my passion of traveling around Alaska and
share my experiences with you all. I love hearing stories!

I want us all to reclaim the roots of our social culture. Don't
get me wrong, I dig social media as one of the most awesome
communication tools in our society. However, I can't help notice
the majority still place value on the follow me, friend me, like
me, and become a fan of me, which appears to have taken a
precedence over the cold call "Hello, what's your story?" or the
like!

So this is video was my attempt at bringing it back home. I had a
blast out on the streets asking people one simple question "What
does Alaska mean to you?" and it was this experience that I
learned how many great people I have yet to meet.

So my friends... Be Bold! To the stranger next to you say "Hi"
and strike up a conversation, you'll otherwise never know what
you could be missing.

Cheers,
Scott
