Nossa esperanca na ATP, o cearense Thiago Monteiro jogou muitas partidas este ano e deu um salto gigantesco no nivel dos jogadores que enfrenta.Aos 22/23 anos, 2017 sera a temporada onde saberemos para onde ele vai. Se vai para as cabecas ou se sera um jogador de Top 100 como o Bellucci. Que e o que de melhor temos hoje em dia e desde que o Guga parou.Pro Monteiro ir para as cabecas, precisara comecar a surpreender nos ATPs 250 e 500 e chegar ao Top 50 em 2017.E ai, com mais experiencia, ele tem chance de ganhar seu primeiro grande torneio em 2018: um ATP 250 pra comecar.Tenista nao tem 2 carreiras. E o tempo e cruel contra ou a favor.Ao final deste ciclo que citei, ele fara 25 anos (Maio de 2019).Ou seja, ao final da temporada de 2018, se ele tiver ganho ao menos um ATP 250, beliscado uma semi ou final de 500, estara num top 30 ou bem proximo.Ai sim podemos sonhar com um Top 10 pro Monteiro, que eu acredito ser possivel. Tudo dependera mesmo da confianca que ele conseguira em seu tenis. Porque tenis ele tem.Agora...so vale um registro: galera, o Thiago Monteiro nao e um mito como Guga. Nao cobrem um Top 5 dele, muito menos um numero 1.Os grandes campeoes do tenis surgem aleatoriamente de um pais ou outro.O raio caiu na Suica com o Federer? Sinto, Wawrinka, nao vai cair em voce. Foi um raio unico na Suica.O mesmo na Servia. Nao vai se ter um novo numero 1 na Servia tao cedo. Mesmo a Meca do tenis, os EUA...vejam ha quantos anos sem um numero 1.O Taylor Fritz e a esperanca deles. E olha que la sao 17 milhoes de tenistas...Talvez voces se perguntem: este cara tem bola de cristal? Nao, e o tenis que e assim mesmo.A afirmacao do raio nao cair no mesmo lugar de fato
pode parecer meio pretensiosa, mas eu pensei nela mais dentro do contexto desta postagem de expectativa sobre o Thiago Monteiro. A quantidade de jogadores de um determinado pais no Top 100, ai sim, pode mudar com o investimento de sua confederacao. Porem, e ao menos historicamente, o numero 1 da ATP, depois da profissionalizacao do tenis em 1973, quase nunca veio na sequencia de um so pais. A unica excecao vem dos EUA em tres ocasioes: com um revezamento entre McEnroe e Connors em 1981-1983, com Courier-Sampras-Agassi em 1992-1996, e Sampras e Agassi, em 1999-2000.A China tem atualmente 15 milhoes de tenistas em seu pais. E nao deve nutrir expectativas de um numero 1 tao cedo, visto que nao tem nenhum tenista no masculino no Top 150, e nenhuma tenista no feminino entre o Top 20. E a unica tenista mais nova, Saisai Zheng, nao deve chegar ao topo, visto que ja tem 22 anos e ainda nao chegou ao Top 50.Enfim, concluindo, Monteiro e nossa esperanca de Top.10. E as duas proximas temporadas, 2017 e 2018, nos dirao se esta esperanca se concluira.* Imagem: UOL Esporte
Image source: http://aum.ca/workplaceethics.ca/canstockphoto1669220cropRBGbluecorrect.jpgAre all the world's best inventions and creations only made by one person? And this person is immortal? Our world is no longer populated by 7 billion people, but only this one single person living beside Lake Ontario, lonely watching as times goes by?Well, that scenario would only be possible in some movie director's mind, as part of one of those apocalyptic movies. In the real world, this are not like that. We've seen human beings of any gender, sex, age accomplish some of the world's most amazing inventions, creations, market-changing theories and all else we could imagine. Now, please carry this scenario to your workplace. Consider yourself as as interactive media professional. You have just arrived for your first day at the new job in that great digital agency you've been dreaming to be hired to. You want to help redesign the website for your favourite burger chain. But there's only one problem. You are an alien. You are not from this world. The world is only populated by one person. The name of that person is Unequell.Unequell, or Une, as he auto-nicknamed himself, is the only existing human being ever in this planet. He built that agency alone, and he built the whole city alone. He built TTC. He built Tim Horton's. He built the CN Tower. And he was the founder of Toronto Maple Leafs. He's everywhere in the hockey rink. He has founded the Pittsburg Penguins and all other hockey teams as well. He shoots and defends. He passes and he intercepts. He's the referee.You see? That would simply be impossible to work in a digital agency founded, directed and employing only this Unequell guy to do all the stuff. So, if that digital agency wants to continue being the reference to you and to many others, what does it need to do? It needs to know that the world is not only populated by Unequell, a 35-year old, white Catholic swedish guy who was claiming that the whole world was...himself. And also...in consequence, the agency was himself. That agency need to know that it's gotta hire catholics and muslims, man and women, young professionals, and experienced ones, to be able to manage egos and lack of experience. It needs to welcome that great blind musician who will be able to create some amazing original soundtracks to the company's portfolio of clients who demand original music to its media experiences on apps, websites, events, crossmedia storytelling efforts and it goes on and on.We call it equity in the workplace. And Unequell will need it. Your great digital agency will need it to sustain all its status as a great place to work. If it wants to be part someday of Forbes list of Best Places to Work, it needs to provide an outstanding work environment and company culture for its employees.Image source: Forbes.comAir BNB, not satisfied in topping Forbes' ranking, also topped the Glassdoor ranking. And for those of you who still haven't heard from Glassdoor, its ranking reflects itself as a business: it's based entirely
on employee's feedback.Image source: Glassdoor.comThe interactive media professional who arrives in that great digital agency where Unequell is struggling to adequate himself, will have to understand the we're watching a media revolution. All audiences these days, and it doesn't matter which target audiences they're part of, are claiming for equality, for honesty when creating or transmitting information, for sincere and human pieces of communication. So, it doesn't matter if you are a designer or a copywrighter. You must be able to fit in that workplace. You will need to be able to work with a fellow swedish guy, a pregnant woman who's leaving her job to give birth in 15 days and will stay out for one year, and that buddhist guy who need to meditate every friday afternoon for 3 hours longer than the usual days.Unequell's world only populated by himself does not exist, but the world dominated by ethical leadership exists. The world, in which he will only be able to create an award-winning campaign for that burger chain, will have the company of yourself (there you go!) and that 22 year-old single mom that just arrived in the agency last month, for Unequell's initial despair. And for Unequell's best of lucks in the future, as that single mom just happened to be the most amazing talent in UX design in the whole agency since day one.Unequell will have to read the book "7 Lenses: Learning the Principles and Practices of Ethic Leadership", by author Linda Fisher Thornton.That will be an journey for ethic in the workplace that you will all benefit from. Not only because the laws are telling you to do so. But because you are a leader and you need to be ahead. You need to be part of this ever-changing world that we are facing now. And as an interactive media professional, you and Unequell will need that even more. As all our decisions are in the publics eye to be judged, every day.
Existem blogueiros que devem postar 500 vezes em 6 meses. Ou em ate 3 meses. No meu caso eu fiz 500 postagens em praticamente 10 anos (o blog completa uma decada no dia 12 de Fevereiro agora).Escrevo aqui sempre que tenho algo a compartilhar com voces. Nao tenho frequencia definida, mas nunca abandonei este espaco. Gosto de escrever. E gosto de ler o que os outros falam tambem.Quero, acima de tudo, agradecer:- A todos que me prestigiaram aqui, neste cantinho meu, visitando, comentando ou compartilhando o que escrevo.- A todos os que proporcionaram as 82.375 visualizacoes do blog, ao menos as que tenho registradas.- Ao povo (provavelmente leitores de lingua portuguesa) do Brasil, Estados Unidos, Suecia, Alemanha, Polonia, Russia, Ira, Franca, Ucrania e China, que por alguma razao foram os que mais visitaram este espaco!- Ao meu pai, a minha mae e a toda minha familia! :<) Fico feliz especialmente por aqueles em que minhas postagens tenham afetado de forma positiva, de alguma maneira!E que venham as proximas 500 postagens!Te vejo aqui, ali ou acola!Um abraco,Fred Neumann Hoje eu vou falar sobre bacon. Esta maravilha da face da Terra que depositamos no topo de incriveis hamburgueres feitos com blends de carnes, que derretem na nossa boca de tao gostosos.Pois o bacon entrou como vilao para a Organizacao Mundial de Saude. Sera mesmo?Antes que voce se desespere e ache que nunca mais devera saborear estas gostosuras, fique tranquilo. Nao preciso ser medico ou nutricionista para lhe dizer que alimentar-se bem e fundamental, certo?Agora vamos aos numeros reais. E ai voce decide o que fazer:- 34.000 mortes por ano sao creditadas ao consumo de carnes processadas, versus 1 milhao de mortes relacionadas ao cigarro.- Ou seja, voce tem 29 vezes mais chances de morrer por fumar cigarros que pelos deliciosos bacons em seu hamburguer (ou junto de seus ovos).- Para que o bacon tenha o mesmo efeito danoso de cancer que o cigarro, voce precisa comer 50 gramas de bacon todos os dias.- So que se voce juntar todos os males que o cigarro causa em voce, ai passa para 158 vezes mais chance de voce morrer por fumar cigarros do que por comer bacon. Dados da WHS.- Mais de 100 milhoes de pessoas morreram por causa do tabaco no seculo 20.- Se continuar neste ritmo, chegaremos a 1 bilhao de mortes relacionadas a tabaco no seculo 21.Agora, isto nao significa que voce deve deixar de comer seu hamburguer, certo?Afinal, a carne vermelha e uma das maiores fontes existentes de vitamina B12, ferro, zinco e proteina para seu corpo.Eu vou continuar comendo um hamburguinho espetacular a cada 10 dias, 15 dias. Com bacon!Sera que meu medico vai questionar isso? Nao sou de esquerda. Nao sou de direita. Nao sou de centro. Nao sou contra a Dilma. Nao sou contra o Aecio. Nao sou nada satisfeito com o clima de guerra que algumas pessoas fazem por causa de politica, especialmente aqueles que se deixam levar pelo calor da emocao, e acabam desperdicando a preciosidade que e uma amizade. Nao sou a favor de musica ruim.
Sou a favor da Nina Simone. Sou a favor do Brasil.Sou a favor da vida.Nao sou a favor de deixar corrupto impune. Nao gosto do Cunha. Nao gosto do Temer. Mas nem por isso sou a favor de tirar ou deixar alguem no poder so por tirar, ou so por deixar. Nao sou a favor de nada que nao seja merecido. Nao sou a favor, isso sim, de paralisar todo o rumo de nosso pais por uma pessoa desesperada querer manter seus milhoes desviados, enquanto no poder. E nao estou falando de ninguem em especifico. Ja trabalhei para PT, PSDB e PV. Neste caso, lembro mais o Ciro Gomes que ja esteve em 6 ou 7 partidos e diz ele, saiu para manter sua integridade. Nossa Republica esta sem a expectativa de um futuro bom, porque a democracia anda muito maltratada. Nao sou a favor de politico nenhum. Nao sou a favor de mais de um mandato seguido para nenhum cargo eletivo.Sou a favor da vida.Nao sou coxinha. Nao sou caviar. Nao sou a favor de truculencia. Nao sou a favor de esconder um erro grave de politico, pra manter um acerto. Nao quero que ninguem fique no poder por eu ser mais tendencioso a uma linha politica ou outra. Nao sou a favor de maltratar muculmanos, porque outros muculmanos erraram. Pois muitos catolicos tambem ja erraram, incluindo ate alguns Papas de antigamente e suas Guerras Religiosas, como reconheceu o Papa Bento XVI. Mas se nao os perdoassemos, nao teriamos hoje o genial Papa Francisco.Nao sou a favor do preconceito. De nenhuma especie. Nao sou a favor do machismo. Nao sou a favor do feminismo. Mas tambem nao sou a favor de nao igualar os direitos de todos. Nao sou a favor de restringir o ir e vir. Nao sou a favor de se dedicar tao pouco tempo a escutar os outros. Nao sou a favor de perdermos tempo. Nao sou a favor de digitalizarmos nossas vidas demais. Nao sou a favor de falar mal dos outros, mas se precisar, que seja uma critica construtiva, na frente da pessoa. Nao sou a favor de nao dar uma segunda chance. Nao sou a favor da morte, mas tambem nao sou a favor de viver em sofrimento.Afinal, sou a favor da vida. Em sua plenitude. E eu entendo que so temos uma para viver. O resto e apenas, e tao lindamente, uma esperanca.* Texto inspirado na musica "Ain't Got No" de Nina Simone. Eu agradeco minha prima Juliana Gontijo, por ter postado esta musica um dia, em seu Facebook.Voce pode se inspirar tambem, assistindo ao video de uma de suas gravacoes, a meu ver a melhor das gravacoes dela, desta musica, aqui
if you don't know in which moment something is considered a success. For this reason, on page 43, Garrett explains the importance of defining what will be the success metrics for your website: what indicators will mean that the team is meeting its objectives and the user's needs. If you are a professional just graduating in the moment you read this post, think about it: being able to follow closely those success metrics and guaranteeing that you will perform an important part to reach that success, and you will write an important (and successful!) chapter in your career!5) On pages 63 and 64, more specifically about the Scope Plane again, what the author says is: be sure to know what you're building in a website/app/new product, so you also know what you are not building.That's the importance of documenting requirements. It doesn't matter if a feature "looks nice": it must align with the strategic objectives of the project. As an interactive media professional, you will find a way to hold your emotions "say" and stick to what the strategy screams out loud (well, maybe it's you screaming as well!).6) On page 86, you will finally arrive at the Structure Plane in more detail, and that signalizes the moment in which the concerns leave the "abstract arena of strategy" and lands directly in the concrete factors that shape the user experience. Interaction design is part of it, for example. It describes possible user behavior and how the system will "accommodate and respond to that behavior", in Garret's words.Got it?Image source: https://eutykhiadotnet.files.wordpress.com/2014/10/plane-skel.jpg7) On page 114, here we go for the Skeleton Plane! If a site will work based on the Structure Plane, it needs to know what form that functionality will take. It's the details. Now we're talking about interface design, navigation design, information design, how information will actually be presented. Take those elements, make them work together as an orchestra, and you will be a valuable professional for your organization.8) Finally, we go to the top of the five-plane model: The Surface Plane! Now we're talking practical design, the one that will take a public shape to fulfill the goals of all the other four planes!We're talking visual! But it's not only a matter of aesthetics: don't get confused by that. In page 143, the author reminds us that "each one has a different taste, and everybody has a different idea of what constitutes a visually appealing design".The trick here is: don't go only for the aesthetics. Check how they work. How effective the design support the objectives defined by each of the lower planes?When you "rock" that, you can consider yourself ready to be successful on the market.
Tiny Toronto is a Toronto based company, specialized in design fabrication of attainable housing. As a solution to reach their target audience more comprehensively, the idea of using 360 degree videos seems adequate. As it's a new solution for creating additional housing space and reducing stress and cost of comute, 360 degree videos can help them immensely in their goals of establishing themselves as a successful startup.One of the advantages they will have using a 360 degree video as a tool will be to help their potential clients to visualize what use they could do of their free space. If a traditional video would be used, it wouldn't be able to scale precisely the area available to put a "tiny house" on site.Here are 4 companies making a good use of 360 degree videos for different reasons:1) REIThe outdoor gear company REI created a 360 degree video campaign to help "multicultural millennials" to expand their view of where the outdoor starts and stops. With that initiative, they were able not only to reach this specific goal, but also to reach 1.5 million Facebook users. Such numbers are definitely powered up by using this type of videos, instead of the traditional ones.Image source: REI's website screen shot2) IC Real TechAnother company using 360 degree videos but as a way to promote sales of its gear is IC Real Tech. They have partnered with Google to integrate YouTube 360 livestreaming capabilities into its ALLie camera. They also avoided being limited to YouTube users, as they also allow users to post 360 videos of their cameras through Facebook's 360 video platform. The other side of their business which also must be considered is the virtual reality headsets. Their cameras supports all available head sets, including Google Cardboard and Facebook's Oculus Rift.Image source: Fortune website3) NescafeAfter seeing "millenials" sharing clips using only cups as instruments, Nestle launched a 360 degree video campaign as part of their REDvolution identity, ensuring a global look and feel across all their products sold in the 180 countries where they are located. They have released two 360 degree videos, as they had launched a previous video on their south american coffee plantations.4) North KoreaPhotographer Aram Pan went to the spotlight after releasing a 360 degree video on how's life in Pyongyang, capital of North Korea. That's a subject that attracts curiosity of many people around the world, and he had the help of this tool to draw attention to his work and to his YouTube channel.As any other tool, there are pros and cons of using it in your strategy. Here are some of them:PROS:- You can definitely say that it's more engaging than traditional videos. As it's quite a new tool, everybody wants to check how is it. And brands can take advantage from that.- As it's such a new technology, you can establish yourself as an innovator, using 360 degree videos to do live sessions of your events, for example.- even though it's something that's only available now to the masses, anyone can assess this technology.- before the adoption
When you arrive in Canada as a student, one of the first actions you must take is to provide a health insurance for your family. I already have mine. It's called University Health Insurance Plan, or UHIP.You should be able to decide if you want the Health Insurance Plan offered by your college, or if you want to find one yourself.In this blog post, my mission will be to describe all the steps I'll take, in the next minutes (or hours?), in the UHIP website, to find all about a health insurance plan for my 3 dependants: my wife and two kids. I still have not decided yet if I'll want a 3 month, 6 month, or a 1 year plan. So I'll need to decide it, based on the prices I'll have to pay, and the options as listed in the Settlement.Org website.That's the mission of this blog post.With this information in hand, I'll decide if I want the plan offered by my college, or if I'll find another one by myself which would more financially interesting for me.I don't have this information yet, so I'll search for it.STEP 1: go to the UHIP website.Here we are for the first decision of this user experience: do I want the website in English or French?Let's choose English. My French is not that fantastic, even though the Duolingo app has helped me a lot to improve my French language skills.STEP 2: where next?So, I must decide where to go now. There are 14 options for me to choose. As I want a plan for my dependants, I can tell you that my experience in here was a fine one: there was a "dependants" button to click. Starting to have a feeling that it won't take me long to find what I need.STEP 3: how much does it cost?So the next information I need to know is how much does it cost to have a health insurance plan designed for my family's needs. I decide to avoid the first link I read through: even though it's an useful information, I just must believe what the website says: that dependants get the same health insurance coverage as me. Anyway, that's good to know.Next decision in the page was to search for the cost to have the plan. So, I went straight to the link "How much does UHIP cost". When I clicked on it, there were 2 options ok links to be clicked. I chose "annual premium costs".STEP 4: choosing the best option for my familyOk, now we're dealing with this UHIP Premium Table. I want to decide which plan to choose. I know that I'm a UHIP member, and that I have 3 dependants. Ok, I will choose "Two or more dependants", for 12 months, at the price of CA$1224. Just found the first barrier: there are no links in the option I chose, so I can a) move forward and pay for it or b) go to my college's page and pay through them.So, I decide to roll down the page a little
bit more. And,ops...no more information or options for me to go through and pay. But there's one link that takes me to "How do I apply for UHIP". I click on it, and it takes me to some options. I read it and decide that I should click on "For more information about your enrollment as an employee or as a dependant, please contact your UHIP Plan Administrator at your university. "THE END: Well, the end of this user experience is not a "happy" one. That first Settlement.org wasn't that obvious, and it took me to all this process here, with the hope that colleges also were part of this "UHIP thing". But they're not. So, my last step was to go back to that page, Settlement.org, just to find that "For more information on how to enroll, contact the International Student Services or Registrar's Office at your university or college." So, anyway, clicking on "college", it took me to Ontario's colleges page, and there it was my college. And that's it. Mission unsuccessful, as I thought I'd have more options to choose. And what happened in the end is that I should only have gone to the college to ask for their health plan option. To find different options, I must now go search in another place. If there will be a possibility of having other options...if the college option is not the only one I have. And for that, none of those websites explained me about it. I'll have to ask Google for help again! User experience? A bad one!
