Yesterday, I found some minor errors on a great website yesterday. I quickly emailed the “contact us” link and detailed how to improve. Then, I asked for an account upgrade, which I was granted. Lessons: 1) Don’t give anything away without asking for something in return. 2) Trade 1s (easy email) for 10s (account access) 3) Don’t be afraid to ask. The worst you can get is a “No.” 4) Ask for more than you expect to receive Notice how I earned respect by being cheeky. I suspect I also earned respect for my well cited, easy to read email. Today, I’ll spend all day on the site…. and probably email him some more free Quality Assurance work.

“What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.” (H. Simon, Communications and the Public Interest, 1971.)http://www.lyndonantcliff.com/positive-thinking/distraction-will-drive-you-into-mediocrity/
