“Technology is best when it brings people together”<\/p>\nMatt Mullenweg – Social media entrepreneur<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This week’s blog post turned out to be more challenging than anticipated. Due to technical issues with Kumu, I had to redo the graphics at the last minute. Nevertheless, this setback gave me an opportunity to refocus on the primary goal: mapping out my Network Topology to gain a deeper understanding of my connections across various spheres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mapping out our own networks is an enlightening project. It allows us to see ourselves amidst our connections, providing a visual representation of how our information flows within and between our social circles. This project has been particularly insightful, helping me to better understand the dynamics of my personal and professional interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My exploration revealed distinct separations and connections within my networks. My Personal network<\/strong>, illustrated in pink, includes a smaller Entertainment network shown in red, and my Social Media network in blue. These are largely isolated from my Work<\/strong> and Education<\/strong> networks. However, there’s a notable bi-directional link between my Work network and YouTube. This platform serves dual purposes: it houses my instructional video library for work in my Channel and is also my go-to for other instructional and personal interest videos. Previously, this was the sole link between my professional and personal life until I recently rebooted my LinkedIn profile. Soon, I’ll be adding a new Instagram account as I outlined in my Digital Identity Development Plan (DIDP), which I anticipate will bridge these two worlds more significantly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The map also highlights potential areas of overlap that could benefit from streamlined software usage between Work and Education sectors. These overlaps might also reveal opportunities for career advancement or research areas worth exploring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mapping our networks not only clarifies our current connections but also directs us towards potential improvements and expansions in our social and professional lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A final addition here,… just because it made me laugh<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I continue to play with graphic generation and AI, this was what came up while blending Old and New Networking with Tools that are forever Evolutionary. I did not not<\/strong> tell it to use a handsome bald guy. lol<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also love how many phone cords there are, and where they all go…?… \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
