Reading: Appropriate Business Communications Appropriate Business Communications You probably learned about table manners, thank-you notes, and other forms of etiquette when you were younger. The way you conduct yourself says a lot about who you are in life and, by extension, in business. Although many companies have a casual dress code, don’t be quick to assume that protocol and established practices aren’t important. It would be easy to misinterpret lack of formality as lack of professionalism. Letters and Memos Despite the use of electronic devices in business, formal written communication such as letters, memos, proposals, reports, and presentations are still major methods of communication in selling. These more official methods of communication reflect factual statements that you are making on behalf of the company. Here are some tips for writing business communications: Use company letterhead where appropriate. For example, letters are always written on letterhead, whether in hard copy or in an electronic format that can be sent via e-mail. Use the formal elements of a business letter shown below in Figure 1, “Business Letter Format”: Figure 1. Business Letter Format For a company memo, use the company format. Most companies have a set format for hard copy and electronic memos. See an example of a company memo below in Figure 2, “Company Memo Example”: Figure 2. Company Memo Example Spell-check and proofread your document carefully before you send it. Be sure it is complete and factually correct and does not include any grammar or spelling errors. Use CC to indicate the names of other people who should also receive a copy of the letter or memo. The term “CC” is short for “carbon copy,” which dates back to the days of typewriters when carbon paper was used to make multiple copies of a document. It can also mean “courtesy copy”: an additional copy provided to someone as a courtesy.[1] Conversations, Meetings, and Presentations Although common sense should prevail in all business communications, here are some tips that will help make your conversations, meetings, and presentations more effective forms of communication: Be prepared; don’t waste anyone’s time or focus. Prepare a written agenda and hand it out at the start of the meeting to keep the group focused on the desired topics. Speak clearly and at a volume that is easy to hear, but not too loud so as to be distracting. Be professional and respectful; don’t interrupt when others are speaking. Use eye contact. At the end, recap your key points and identify next steps. In business, time is money so conducting effective and efficient meetings is critical to your success. High Tech, High Touch The year was 1982, and the world was just beginning to realize the amazing potential of computer technology. John Naisbitt wrote a book called Megatrends: Ten New Directions Transforming Our Lives, in which he coined the term “high tech, high touch,” which he defined as the contradictory state in which people are driven by technology yet long for human interaction. [2] In his 1999 book, High Tech/High Touch, he wrote about how the United States has been transformed from being comfortable with technology to being intoxicated with technology, a state he calls the “Technologically Intoxicated Zone.” You probably can’t imagine living without your cell phone or personal digital assistant (PDA), iPod, computer, or other electronic devices. In fact, it’s likely you can’t even remember what communication was like before the Internet. Technology, with all of its efficiency and benefits, cannot, however, become a substitute for old-fashioned human efforts. “Technology makes tasks easier, but it does not make our lives easier,” July Shapiro said in an article in Advertising Age.[3] Shapiro’s observation is true, especially as it relates to business; sometimes, the crush of technology takes precedence over business etiquette. However, people have begun to rethink the lack of personal interaction and its corresponding etiquette in the workplace. Yes, “there’s even an app for that”; a firm named Etiquette Avenue has recently launched an iPod app for business etiquette. The fact is, technology isn’t personal and can’t behave in the right way at the right time with your customer or on an interview; that’s completely up to you. Now, we’re seeing a bit of a reverse movement: Technology is so pervasive people are actually pushing back on their managers and asking them for more face time and less gadget time. Being Connected vs. Being Addicted In a recent pitch to a potential client, a marketing executive in Manhattan thought it was strange that his potential customer was so engaged with his iPhone that he hardly looked up from it during the meeting. After ninety minutes, someone peeked over the customer’s shoulder and saw that he was playing a racing game on his iPhone. This was disappointing, but not shocking according to the marketing firm that was doing the presentation; they continued with their pitch because they wanted the business. Some are not as tolerant. Billionaire Tom Golisano, a power broker in New York politics, recently announced that he wants to have State Senate majority leader Malcolm A. Smith removed from office because Smith was focused on his iPhone during a budget meeting with him. Recently, in Dallas, Texas, a student lost his opportunity for an internship at a hedge fund when he checked his phone to check a fact during an interview and took an extra minute to check his text messages at the same time. [4]  According to Maggie Jackson, author of Distracted: The Erosion of Attention and the Coming Dark Age, we are living in “an institutionalized culture of interruption, where our time and attention is being fragmented by a never-ending stream of phone calls, e-mails, instant messages, text messages, and tweets.”[5] The need to be connected should not overwhelm respect for colleagues and customers. Although texting has become a national pastime, especially among teenagers, it’s important to know the appropriate etiquette for the use of handheld electronic devices in the business environment. First, it’s best to turn off your electronic devices before you enter every meeting. If you think you can’t live without checking your text messages, think about how you would feel if you went on a job interview and the person with whom you were meeting was checking his electronic device during your interview. Just because some people demonstrate bad behavior and check their electronic devices for messages during a meeting doesn’t make it appropriate. In fact, it will help you stand out as a good listener. Telephone, Cell Phone, Voice Mail, and Conference Calls Sometimes, however, the use of technology is entirely necessary to conduct business when personal interaction is impossible. It’s important that verbal communication that is not face-to-face is effective and professional. Because you don’t have the benefit of using or seeing the receiver’s nonverbal communication, the challenges for effective and appropriate communication are even greater. Here are some dos and don’ts of telephone etiquette: Do be aware of the volume of your voice when you are speaking on the phone in the office or on a cell phone.[6] Do, when using a speakerphone, conduct the call in an enclosed or isolated area such as a conference room or office to avoid disturbing others in the area. Do, when leaving a voice mail message, speak slowly, enunciate, spell your name, and leave your number (this makes it much easier for the recipient to hear your message the first time).[7] Do, when you leave a voice mail message, be specific about what you want: make it easier for the caller to get back to you and include what time you will be available for a callback to avoid playing telephone tag.[8] Do customize your voice mail message: create a different message for each of your customers or prospective customers so the message is personal and relevant.[9] Do speak with enthusiasm: it’s best to convey a smile in your voice, especially if it is the first time you are calling or leaving a message for someone.[10] Don’t take another phone call during a meeting.[11] Don’t discuss confidential or personal issues during business calls. Don’t discuss confidential issues in public areas—you never know who might overhear a conversation in the hallway, on a train, or in other public areas.[12] Don’t leave a long, rambling voice mail message: be prepared with a message that is no longer than sixty seconds.[13] Don’t multitask during a long phone call or conference call—give the other person or people the courtesy of your full attention. E-mails, Text Messages, Instant Messages, and Social Networks Written communication has evolved to include multiple methods, all of which have appropriate places in selling. Notice the operative word here is appropriate. E-mail has become an accepted method of communication in most businesses, whereas text messages, instant messages, and social networks are commonplace for only some companies. That’s why etiquette is especially important when using any of these methods of communication, and you should take time to choose your method carefully. Letters, memos, proposals, and other written communication are considered formal, whether they are sent on paper or transmitted via e-mail. However, text messages, instant messages, and social networking are considered informal methods of communication and should be used only to communicate less formal information, such as a meeting time when schedules have been adjusted during a factory tour. Text and instant messages should never be used to communicate company policies, proposals, pricing, or other information that is important to conduct business with customers. It’s also worth noting that in all these methods your communication is permanent, so it’s a good idea to know the following dos and don’ts of electronic communication: Do use an e-mail subject line that clearly tells the recipient about the content of the e-mail. Do create a short, concise message that uses proper grammar and spelling—use spell-check to be sure all words are spelled correctly.[14] Do, in all electronic communications, use uppercase and lowercase letters as grammar dictates.[15] Do use e-mail, text messages, and instant messages when appropriate, according to your company’s practices, and with your customers to communicate factual information such as to confirm meeting date, time, and location.[16] Do use social networking sites to join the conversation and add value—you can build your personal brand by creating a blog or joining a professional conversation on social networking sites such as Twitter or Facebook.[17] Don’t use all capital letters in an e-mail; it appears that you are shouting or angry.[18] Don’t use “Reply to All” unless it’s absolutely necessary that all the recipients see your response—be selective to avoid mailbox overload. Don’t send an e-mail, text message, or instant message when you are angry: take the time to think about what you send because you can’t take it back after it’s sent.[19] Don’t use abbreviations like “ur,” “2b,” and others—this is not appropriate business communication.[20] Don’t use company e-mail, text message, or instant message accounts to send personal correspondence, and don’t check your personal accounts or pages during company time, as all communication that takes place on company hardware and servers is property of the company. Don’t use electronic communication to transmit bad news: talk to the person first, and if follow-up is necessary, reiterate the information in written form. Don’t use text messages, instant messages, or social networks to communicate information such as pricing, proposals, reports, service agreements, and other company information that should be sent using a more formal method.

The rule of silence, also referred to as the silence is golden rule, is an important part of the Unix philosophy that states that when a program has nothing surprising, interesting or useful to say, it should say nothing. It means that well-behaved programs should treat their users' attention and concentration as being valuable and thus perform their tasks as unobtrusively as possible. That is, silence in itself is a virtue

Calm technology is a type of information technology where the interaction between the technology and its user is designed to occur in the user's periphery rather than constantly at the center of attention. Information from the technology smoothly shifts to the user's attention when needed but otherwise stays calmly in the user's periphery. Mark Weiser and John Seely Brown describe calm technology as "that which informs but doesn't demand our focus or attention."

Und Gott sah, daß es gut war. 26 Und Gott sprach: „Ich will Menschen machen als mir ähnlichen Stellvertreter! Sie sollen herrschen über die Fische im Meer und über die Vögel am Himmel und über das Vieh und über die ganze Erde und über alle Kriecher, die auf Erden kriechen.“ 27 Und Gott schuf den Menschen als seinen Stellvertreter, Zum Bilde Gottes schuf er ihn; Männlich und weiblich schuf er sie. 28 Und Gott segnete sie. Er sprach zu ihnen: „Seid fruchtbar und mehrt euch und füllt die Erde und macht sie euch untertan und herrscht über die Fische im Meer und über die Vögel am Himmel und über alle Lebewesen, die auf Erden kriechen!“ 29 Und Gott sprach: „Hiermit gebe ich euch alles Samen tragende Getreide, das auf der Oberfläche der ganzen Erde ist, und alle Bäume, die in ihren Baumfrüchten Samen tragen, zu eurer Speise, 30 und allem Getier auf Erden und allen Vögeln am Himmel und allen Kriechern auf Erden, die Leben in sich haben, gebe ich alle Pflanzen zur Speiße.“ Und es geschah also. 31 Und Gott sah, dass alles, was er gemacht hatte, sehr gut war.

Und der Held Judas vermahnte den Haufen, daß sie sich forthin vor Sünden bewahren wollten, weil sie vor ihren Augen sähen, daß diese um ihrer Sünde willen erschlagen wären. 43 Danach hieß er sie eine Steuer zusammenlegen, zweitausend Drachmen Silber; die schickte er gen Jerusalem zum Sündopfer. Und er tat wohl und fein daran, dieweil er dachte an die Auferstehung. 44 Denn wo er nicht gehofft hätte, daß die, so erschlagen waren, würden auferstehen, wäre es vergeblich und eine Torheit gewesen, für die Toten zu bitten. 45 Weil er aber bedachte, daß die, so im rechten Glauben sterben, Freude und Seligkeit zu hoffen haben, ist es eine gute und heilige Meinung gewesen. 46 Darum hat er auch für die Toten gebeten, daß ihnen die Sünde vergeben würde.

Logistics and Information Management The physical movement of goods is called logistics, and as you can guess, it is a staggeringly complex and important function. Imagine trying to keep track all of this information—from the initial order forecast to production, warehousing, and transportation. It’s obviously not a job that a human, or even a team of humans, could easily do on a large scale. As global supply chains have grown more complex, businesses have created systems to manage and optimize the supply chain. In 2013, the market for supply chain management software was $8.944 billion.[5]. Put simply, companies are buying expensive systems to help manage the complexity of the supply chain. An RFID tag allows interested parties to track the location of packages in transit. Have you ever tracked a package that you were sending or receiving and seen its progress through the supply chain? This is done using track-and-trace software that monitors the progress of physical goods through the supply chain process, often by means of a radio-frequency identification tag. Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. The tags contain electronically stored information. Passive tags collect energy from a nearby RFID reader’s interrogating radio waves. RFID tags are used in many industries—for example, an RFID tag attached to an automobile during production can be used to track its progress through the assembly line, and RFID-tagged pharmaceuticals can be tracked through warehouses in the supply chain process. Information throughout the supply chain process is captured in systems that allow supply chain professionals to analyze results and identify improvements that will lead to more reliable, faster, and less expensive delivery to customers throughout the supply chain.

Baylor University, called for a “personal cyberinfrastructure” where students:not only would acquire crucial technical skills for their digital lives but also would engage in work that provides richly teachable moments…. Fascinating and important innovations would emerge as students are able to shape their own cognition, learning, expression, and reflection in a digital age, in a digital medium. Students would frame, curate, share, and direct their own ‘engagement streams’ throughout the learning environment.In developing this “personal cyberinfrastructure” through the Domain of One’s Own initiative, UMW gives students agency and control; they are the subjects of their learning, not the objects of education technology software.Having one’s own domain means that students have much more say over what they present to the world, in terms of their public profiles, professional portfolios, and digital identities. Students have control over the look and feel of their own sites, including what’s shared publicly. This means they have some say — although not complete — over their personal data, and in turn they begin to have an understanding of the technologies that underpin the Web, including how their work and their data circulate there.At the simplest level, a Domain of One’s Own helps students build their own digital portfolio. They can be used in a classroom setting in order for students to demonstrate their learning. These portfolios can contain text, images, video and audio recordings, giving students opportunities to express themselves in a variety of ways beyond the traditional pen-and-paper test or essay. One student uses her domain to showcase her artwork. Another chronicled her semester abroad. A third student has built a living CV, highlighting her academic research as well as her work experience.Since UMW launched Domain of One’s Own in 2013, other schools have picked up on the program’s relevance in today’s world — including Emory University, the University of Oklahoma, and Davidson College, as well as at several high schools. Domain of One’s Own has also spun out a startup of sorts, Reclaim Hosting, that provides low-cost Web hosting and helps educators offer their students their own domains.Clarence Fisher introduced Domains last year to his high school students at the Joseph H. Kerr School in Snow Lake, Manitoba. “The kids came in to the class with what I would call fair and average teen tech skills,” he said. “Lots of iPods, iPads, and laptops. Lots of Facebook and Instagram. But none of them had a presence online they were in control of before this.”This observation was echoed by Bryan Jackson, who has implemented Domains at Gleneagle Secondary School in Coquitlam, British Columbia. “I wanted them to see and be aware of all of the options and the control that they are giving up when services such as Facebook are their primary web presence,” he said. By contrast, he introduced his students to open source platforms like WordPress, teaching them about Web standards like HTML and CSS.Often when schools talk to students about their presence on the Web, they do so in terms of digital citizenship: what students need to know in order to use technology “appropriately.” Schools routinely caution students about the things they post on social media, and the tenor of this conversation — particularly as translated by the media — is often tinged with fears that students will be seen “doing bad things” or “saying bad things” that will haunt them forever.While some schools are turning to social media monitoring firms to keep an eye on students online, rarely do schools give students the opportunity to demonstrate the good work that they do publicly. Nor do schools give students the opportunity to decide what and when and how that public, online display should look like. It’s a drawback to our digital citizenship conversations — we’re concerned about what students do online but we fail to probe the “appropriateness” of the demands on data and content that (education) technology companies increasingly make on the students in turn.It’s one of the flaws too with how privacy conversations about education technology are usually framed. Debates about what happens to student data — who it’s shared with, for example — seldom include students’ input. These debates do not recognize the ways in which students have already developed rich social lives online and could use help, not punishment or paternalism, in understanding how to think through the data trails they’re leaving behind.<img class="progressiveMedia-noscript js-progressiveMedia-inner" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/600/1*FM8VCiLKF6U5V8f1alJYcg.jpeg">There is an understandable learning curve to helping students manage their online presence via their own domain. “At first there was a fair amount of fumbling around, Googling solutions, and trying to understand their options,” said teacher Clarence Fisher. “Within a week, the kids were able to understand what their options were and how their site was affected by changes they made. As time went on, we talked a lot more about technical issues (backup, recovery, privacy options, hosting laws in different countries, etc). But we also talked a lot more about digital citizenship, safety, control, design, etc. The kids saw the site much more as their own and their responsibility.”The importance of giving students responsibility for their own domain cannot be overstated. This can be a way to track growth and demonstrate new learning over the course of a student’s school career — something that they themselves can reflect upon, not simply grades and assignments that are locked away in a proprietary system controlled by the school.And if a student owns their own domain, as she moves from grade to grade and from school to school, all that information — their learning portfolio — can travel with them.Education technology — and more broadly, the culture of education — does a terrible job with this sort of portability and interoperability. When a student moves to a new school, for example, they often have to request their transcript, a document that lists their courses and their grades. A transcript is by definition a copy of their education record. The transcript is often printed on a piece of paper with formal letterhead, perhaps with a watermark or stamp to show that it’s “official.” This lack of portability continues in much digital schoolwork too. Even if students are encouraged to create online portfolios or to use services like Google Apps for Education in order to store all their work, they don’t actually get to take that work with them when they move or graduate. (In the case of Google Apps, you can download your files. But then you’ll need to find a new place to store them.) Too often, students’ work in these systems gets deleted over the summer months as schools aren’t in the business of permanently storing student work. School district IT is not the right steward for student work: the student is.Giving students their own digital domain is a radical act. It gives them the ability to work on the Web and with the Web, to have their scholarship be meaningful and accessible by others. It allows them to demonstrate their learning to others beyond the classroom walls. To own one’s domain gives students an understanding of how Web technologies work. It puts them in a much better position to control their work, their data, their identity online.“I want to know where my ones and zeros are stored,” said Bryan Jackson, referring to the basic binary code in which computers ‘think.’ “And I want my students to know that that’s something they can ask about, and learn to manage for themselves.”Illustrations by Lisk FengBright is made possible by funding from the New Venture Fund, and is supported by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

A Genius spokesperson wrote, “Users can currently tag @genius-moderation to report any abusive content. So far, there have been no instances of abuse, but we recognize that this is an entirely valid concern as usage of the tool increases.” Second, let sites opt out of annotation. If that sounds extreme, its worth noting that Google has let sites opt out of appearing in search results for a long time. It is tough to imagine a much more significant layer over the Internet than Google search results.

This may be due in part to the rising popularity of social media apps, such as SnapChat, Instagram, and Vine, in which people tell and tag their informal stories through photos and video snippets

To be even clearer, there is no way to read these continual killings as anything but racist.

Just this morning I saw a boy (maybe around 11) running down the street with his smartphone in his hand, he came to an abrupt stop at one point, for which I can only assume he was catching a Pokémon.

It is interesting to see the debate between animal rights and animal welfare issues.

here are federal regulations and then there are local regulation on top of those that require an additional inspection of safety practices.

When it comes to digital story telling I have a hard time stepping outside of it having to be a video production of sorts. I know this to be wrong of me but I continue to go back to videos. So seeing a blog as a digital story is quite intriguing.

I struggled with was having those who comment be considered co-authors.

I am not the only one that struggles

I gained some familiarity with some terms such as autoethnographic and hypertext

Openness is a core value of scientific practice.

Epitope-tagged

If the RRID is well-formed, and if the lookup found the right record, a human validator tags it a valid RRID — one that can now be associated mechanically with occurrences of the same resource in other contexts. If the RRID is not well-formed, or if the lookup fails to find the right record, a human validator tags the annotation as an exception and can discuss with others how to handle it. If an RRID is just missing, the validator notes that with another kind of exception tag.

In that sense and contrary to any other business, academic journals are an atypical information good, because publishers neither pay the provider of the primary good—authors of scholarly papers—nor for the quality control—peer review. On the publisher’s side, average first-copy costs of journal papers are estimated to range between 20 and 40 US dollars per page, depending on rejection rates [37];

Tweeting has rapidly become an integral part of the conference scene, with a subset of attendees on Twitter providing real-time running commentary through a common “tag” (#mla09, for example), which allows everyone who follows it to tune in to the conversation.

The team used a whiteboard with task cards, stand-up meetings, weekly iterations, and prioritization. They even estimated their work, measured flow, and held retrospectives.

“[Agility] comes in different forms, but basically it’s the ability to quickly adapt to or even anticipate and lead change. Agility in the broadest form affects strategic thinking, operations, technology innovation and the ability to innovate in products, processes and business models.”

all this sand, all these possibilities! They navigate among shifting social relations – first we’re builders, now we’re enemies, now it’s time for tag – all while pursuing emergent goals, from castle construction, to destructive battle, to collaborative artistic expression

Perhaps this price tag wouldn’t be so daunting if the welfare system actually reduced poverty. Unfortunately, it hasn’t. To the contrary, under the system, the ranks of the poor have continued to swell and welfare dependence has spread dramatically.

Since the beginning of the War on Poverty in 1965, the U.S. has spent $15.9 trillion on welfare. Perhaps this price tag wouldn’t be so daunting if the welfare system actually reduced poverty. Unfortunately, it hasn’t. To the contrary, under the system, the ranks of the poor have continued to swell and welfare dependence has spread dramatically.

That failure sealed a process characteristic of the past century: the bungled reception of technology.

“A happy life in a world of horror is ignominiously refuted by the mere existence of that world. The latter therefore becomes the essence, the former negligible.” (Adorno and Horkheimer, 93)

the show may function as a sort of precognitive “usage manual,” one that advises “if a day should arrive when you can technologically remember everything…don’t be like the guy in this episode.”

Genius already expressed its objection to this option in the above, but I submit that if annotation really does catch on, the major media and dominant personalities that need such correction won’t fight annotation if it delivers eyeballs.

Here’s the URL of annotations tagged wikipedia: https://hypothes.is/stream?q=tag:%27wikipedia%27 (Actually that doesn’t seem to work yet, but I’d love to see this become a next-gen delicious with all the taggy goodness.)

“College is extremely expensive,” she said, “but there is no price tag in terms of the conversations you hold and the community you make.”

So much of what has shaped my life is the fact that I did unusual things and people found that interesting.

¿Dónde ha quedado el correo postal? Sustituido por el e-mail para comunicaciones igualmente reposadas, pero de mucha mayor comodidad, y en gran parte por el tuit, instantáneamente comunicado y expuesto a la curiosidad universal. Podemos discutir, como se ha hecho ya en esta serie de artículos, en qué medida Twitter inaugura algún tipo de periodismo, pero lo seguro es que pone a todo el mundo en comunicación con todo el mundo, a la velocidad de un chasquido. Pero, ¿cómo se escribe? ¿Sentimos la vergüenza de salir a escena con harapos o decentemente ataviados?

Taylor Swift. La cantante de ... Sponsored Content   El nobel mexicano Octavio Paz decía: “La corrupción del lenguaje es la corrupción de la realidad”. Lo que describimos mal queda ahí para los restos y perjudica la imagen de la realidad toda. Y Víctor García de la Concha, director del Instituto Cervantes y antiguo director de la Real Academia, abunda en lo concerniente a los hispanohablantes acusándonos de hablar “un español zarrapastroso” (EL PAÍS, 4-12-2012); de forma indigente, omisa, indiferente a la potencia y sabiduría de nuestra lengua. Y cuando el académico decía que “se habla”, se refería por elevación a esa forma tan próxima a la oralidad que es el tuit; apenas una transcripción apresurada de nuestros pensamientos, porque, puede que en parte por el anonimato en el que cabe refugiarse en esta red social, lo que difícilmente consignaríamos en el manuscrito o en el e-mail encuentra acomodo en Twitter, sin excluir el exabrupto, el disparate lingüístico, el caos de puntuación o su más completa ausencia. No nos importa, en muchos casos nos sentimos como quien habla acodado en la barra del bar, en lugar de estar mandando un mensaje, con la seriedad que antiguamente habría requerido lo escrito. Por eso, rechazo, pero que cada uno haga de su capa un sayo, que se introduzcan fórmulas de abreviatura —supresión de signos ortográficos, escritura fonética y tantos otros recursos— para decir lo más posible —y peor— con el menor número de caracteres. Y aquí sí que entramos en el terreno de lo periodístico, con el calentamiento en 140 caracteres que supone el tuit, lo que exige claridad de ideas, precisión, pero también corrección gramatical, para que sirva de algo en la práctica de la información profesionalizada. Somos lo que escribimos, aún más que lo que hablamos Pero es que hay algo más y de suma importancia que se desprende de los tuits que botamos al éter: nuestra propia imagen. Como escribe Álex Grijelmo (EL PAÍS, 20-1-2016), esos esbozos de idea, apuntaciones o hasta rebotes del subconsciente “constituyen un escaparate que exhibe a la vista de cualquiera la ortografía de una persona, su léxico, su capacidad para estructurar el pensamiento”. Y en muchos casos, siempre como dijo Grijelmo, con el riesgo de caer en “un escándalo silencioso”. Somos lo que escribimos, aún más que lo que hablamos. Y si no que se lo digan a un concejal, elegido para el Ayuntamiento de Madrid, al que se le ocurrió hacer una desafortunada broma en Twitter sobre el Holocausto, aunque probablemente no implicara el desliz ningún sentimiento profundo ni determinante sobre el caso. Y también revela el tuit, y yo mismo puedo ser tan culpable como cualquiera, una necesidad muy hispánica de corregir, desde el pináculo de la verdad revelada, de enmendar la plana al prójimo. En mi descargo diré que mis correcciones son solo lingüísticas o periodísticas y jamás formuladas directamente a personas o instituciones. Por todo lo anterior, una estadística concienzuda de lo que los españoles e hispanohablantes, en general, mandamos a navegar en las redes, nos diría seguramente muchísimo sobre quiénes creemos que somos y lo que nos falta para conseguirlo. Y el diagnóstico no sería necesariamente halagüeño.

de su invento, la escritura mecánica, habría de alcanzar su máxima expresión a comienzos del siglo XXI, gracias a algo que llamamos redes sociales y, quizá, principalmente Twitter; porque nunca se ha escrito en toda la historia tanto como hoy. Es el apogeo de Gutenberg. ¿Dónde ha quedado el correo postal? Sustituido por el e-mail para comunicaciones igualmente reposadas, pero de mucha mayor comodidad, y en gran parte por el tuit, instantáneamente comunicado y expuesto a la curiosidad universal. Podemos discutir, como se ha hecho ya en esta serie de artículos, en qué medida Twitter inaugura algún tipo de periodismo, pero lo seguro es que pone a todo el mundo en comunicación con todo el mundo, a la velocidad de un chasquido. Pero, ¿cómo se escribe? ¿Sentimos la vergüenza de salir a escena con harapos o decentemente ataviados?

Taylor Swift. La cantante de ... Sponsored Content   El nobel mexicano Octavio Paz decía: “La corrupción del lenguaje es la corrupción de la realidad”. Lo que describimos mal queda ahí para los restos y perjudica la imagen de la realidad toda. Y Víctor García de la Concha, director del Instituto Cervantes y antiguo director de la Real Academia, abunda en lo concerniente a los hispanohablantes acusándonos de hablar “un español zarrapastroso” (EL PAÍS, 4-12-2012); de forma indigente, omisa, indiferente a la potencia y sabiduría de nuestra lengua. Y cuando el académico decía que “se habla”, se refería por elevación a esa forma tan próxima a la oralidad que es el tuit; apenas una transcripción apresurada de nuestros pensamientos, porque, puede que en parte por el anonimato en el que cabe refugiarse en esta red social, lo que difícilmente consignaríamos en el manuscrito o en el e-mail encuentra acomodo en Twitter, sin excluir el exabrupto, el disparate lingüístico, el caos de puntuación o su más completa ausencia. No nos importa, en muchos casos nos sentimos como quien habla acodado en la barra del bar, en lugar de estar mandando un mensaje, con la seriedad que antiguamente habría requerido lo escrito. Por eso, rechazo, pero que cada uno haga de su capa un sayo, que se introduzcan fórmulas de abreviatura —supresión de signos ortográficos, escritura fonética y tantos otros recursos— para decir lo más posible —y peor— con el menor número de caracteres. Y aquí sí que entramos en el terreno de lo periodístico, con el calentamiento en 140 caracteres que supone el tuit, lo que exige claridad de ideas, precisión, pero también corrección gramatical, para que sirva de algo en la práctica de la información profesionalizada. Somos lo que escribimos, aún más que lo que hablamos Pero es que hay algo más y de suma importancia que se desprende de los tuits que botamos al éter: nuestra propia imagen. Como escribe Álex Grijelmo (EL PAÍS, 20-1-2016), esos esbozos de idea, apuntaciones o hasta rebotes del subconsciente “constituyen un escaparate que exhibe a la vista de cualquiera la ortografía de una persona, su léxico, su capacidad para estructurar el pensamiento”. Y en muchos casos, siempre como dijo Grijelmo, con el riesgo de caer en “un escándalo silencioso”. Somos lo que escribimos, aún más que lo que hablamos. Y si no que se lo digan a un concejal, elegido para el Ayuntamiento de Madrid, al que se le ocurrió hacer una desafortunada broma en Twitter sobre el Holocausto, aunque probablemente no implicara el desliz ningún sentimiento profundo ni determinante sobre el caso. Y también revela el tuit, y yo mismo puedo ser tan culpable como cualquiera, una necesidad muy hispánica de corregir, desde el pináculo de la verdad revelada, de enmendar la plana al prójimo. En mi descargo diré que mis correcciones son solo lingüísticas o periodísticas y jamás formuladas directamente a personas o instituciones. Por todo lo anterior, una estadística concienzuda de lo que los españoles e hispanohablantes, en general, mandamos a navegar en las redes, nos diría seguramente muchísimo sobre quiénes creemos que somos y lo que nos falta para conseguirlo. Y el diagnóstico no sería necesariamente halagüeño.

Intestinal Tract

Terry Neal Navy, 1975–77 The part that I remember before I passed out was somebody saying they were going to teach me a lesson. Richard Welch Air Force and Army, 1973–82 I was coming in and out of consciousness. He kept saying, "You're going to like this." Matthew Owen* Army, 1976–80 I heard one of them say, "Get that broom over there by the lockers." Gary Jones* Army, 1984–86 At first I thought he was playing around. He managed to wrestle me onto my back, and I started freaking out. He pinned my arm above my head and my knee in the crook of his arm and covered my mouth with his right hand and looked at me and said, "You will not make a noise." Sam Madrid*
