Alright, so this weeks topic is all about Nicolle Brown, and her Flare.com entry to the Intern Contest at Flare. Basically, it's a contest where tons of intern hopefulls make a video and people vote on who they want the Flare.com intern to be! Woohoo! K so this reminds me of something Marshall McLuhan said. He said "As technology advances, it reverses the characteristics of every situation again and again. The age of automation is going to be the age of 'do it yourself.' ". I think it's pretty amazing that Marshall was able to predict things, like employers deciding who to hire based on internet votes, so long ago! It made me wonder what would be next. Then one day, watching MTV, I heard that P.Diddy, is having a similar thing going on. He's basically asking people to upload videos on YouTube, and whoever gets the most votes will be P.Diddy's personal assistant. My favorite is Paul The Intern's from MTV Canada =)
