Designing and building RESTful APIs isn’t easy. On its surface, it may seem simple – after all, we’re only marshaling JSON back and forth over HTTP right? However, that’s only a small part of the equation. There are many things to keep in mind while building the systems that act as the key to your system.
In this session, we’ll delve into several best practices to keep in mind when designing your RESTful API. We’ll discuss authentication, versioning, controller/model design, and testability. We’ll also explore the do’s and don’t’s of RESTful API management so that you make sure your APIs are simple, consistent, and easy-to-use. Finally, we’ll discuss the importance of documentation and change management. The session will show examples using ASP.NET Web API and C#. However, this session will benefit anyone who is or might be working on a RESTful API.
Session slides from a session at ATD Core 4, September 29 in New Orleans. Session description: Delivering engaging e-learning is about more than dressing up text bullets on a PowerPoint slide. How can we design online learning experiences that actually make a difference in sharing knowledge, building skills, and ultimately improving performance? In this session, we’ll investigate the many types of e-learning, check out some key principles of good design, look at loads of examples, and talk about what to avoid in e-learning.

This was created for an internal company introduction to using social media, specifically Facebook and Twitter. At the time, most of our employees were not using SM personally or professionally. It is a 101-type session on navigating and understanding basic SM environments.
I give talks, provide training and work one-on-one with business owners, executives and staff to teach how to use Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+ and blogging for business. This slide set is from my Aptos Chamber of Commerce talk, "Twitter for Business," Feb. 9.
Curious if Twitter is right for your organization?

I go in-depth so you can learn practical Twitter skills such as understanding hashtags, lists and retweeting, managing your tweets so Twitter doesn’t manage you, the dreaded ‘Fail Whale’, and knowing how to attract followers and interact effectively with them.
This presentation was delivered on April 13th to the Charleston County Library's Small Business and Not-For-Profit Networking Luncheon.

Mixing paper with digital gets messy. Journals, meditation tools & exercises, Then coaching newsletters, even podcasts & ebooks/courses. In time, we lapse due to complexity, expense or boredom. The search continues…
Card decks are an engaging, varied medium, but printed decks get heavy, bulky & expensive.
If your card decks were digital, you would have several advantages over physical card decks.
Firstly, you would not have to worry about losing or damaging any physical cards, which could save you money and time in the long run.
Secondly, you would have the ability to easily shuffle and randomize your cards, which can be more difficult with physical cards. This would make your card games more fair and balanced.
Thirdly, you could easily customize your digital card decks by adding or removing cards, changing the artwork or text, and more. This would allow you to create unique and personalized card games.
Lastly, you would have the ability to play your card games online with others, which would allow you to play with people from all over the world. This would open up new opportunities for playing card games and meeting new people who share your interests.
Overall, digital card decks would offer many benefits over physical card decks, including increased convenience, customization, and online gameplay options.

Lurkers Into Leads: 11 Hacks to Connect with the 99 Percent (The Silent Majo...Nick Kellet
Some might call it “talking to the shadow people” or “getting the lurkers to reveal themselves”
We're exploring the 1% Rule ( ie 1:9:90).
Learn what it takes to get the shadow people into the light – and into your sights, and how knowing this is a critical part of your content strategy and your success.
Lurker is a term who’s meaning has evolved.
No longer a “stalker”.
Lurking is internet for “Just looking”.
When people say “I’m just lurking” they are asking to be invited to the party.
Lurking has taken on a bigger role with the emergence of the self-service economy.
Social Media is a much used term.
Beneath the name the categories of tools have emerged and evolved. This deck explains how Social Media is two things and how these two things are both very similar AND very different.
Treat them the same at your peril.

Self-serve has changed everything.
UnLurk Me explores both sides of the new economy where everyone creates, curates & consumes.
24 Social Laws explain how brands & consumers can benefit from a more productive exchange.
We all lurk, but the big question is what does it take to entice people out of the shadows.
This book explores the art of participation.
7 Big Cheese Marketing Secrets for People who Want to Master Digital Media Pl...Nick Kellet
I recently learned people weren't picking their media platforms wisely (or using them at all).
I knew people picked tools poorly, so I’m not sure why I was surprised.
These were people I’d assumed would know how to choose.
So then I realized, that’s the problem I’m experiencing with Listly.
If more people got media, more people would get Listly.
Hence the idea for this deck was born.
I’ve also found it valuable to recap + retell things you’ve already told.
Complex ideas get easier to tell as you seek out the perfect metaphor.
There’ no doubt media is complex + someone needs to make it simpler

https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.
Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.

25. asking for help
• Asking for help is a big part of Listly culture
• Ask early & often. Catch people when they have
time to act
• Don’t be afraid to ask again
• Leave room for the first people to help. Leave
obvious gaps in the list
• Getting the first few people to help takes effort
• Once people can see social contributions other
people will be more willing to participate
• Ask friend & request help via Twitter & other
social networks - don’t forget to use hashtags &
keywords so people will find your content
• For people to contribute they need to care
about the topic & your list content
• Tell people why you need. Ask for one thing
• Voting or Contributing
