    The Game of Thrones and Social Media Blockades

    Now here is a clever way to get people’s attention: Associate the popular TV series Game of Thrones with your solution to the social media blockades instituted by Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.

    In recent months, some of the biggest houses in the social media realm have quietly butted heads and blocked access between one another. Unfortunately these walls aren’t built to protect the citizens. While wars rage on behind the scenes, the users of these paths are beginning to find their favorite networks a lot less accessible, and a lot less social.

    But HootSuite offers a solution. Check it out.

    Richie Norton, author of the new book The Power of Starting Something Stupid, shares a few stupid, crazy ideas that worked for Ebay, Apple, Virgin Airlines, Newman’s Own, Google, Disneyland, Twitter, Ford Motors, William Shakespeare’s plays, Skype, Instagram, Foursquare, Pinterest, Groupon, and Facebook.

    The Power of Starting Something Stupid: A few stupid, crazy ideas that worked for Ebay, Apple, Virgin Airlines, Newman's Own, Ford Motors, William Shakespeare's plays, Skype, Instagram, Foursquare, Pinterest, and Facebook

    The Power of Starting Something Stupid by Richie NortonWhat if the smartest people in the world understand something that the rest of us don’t? (They do.)

    What if they know that in order to achieve success, they will sometimes have to do things that others may initially perceive as stupid? The fact of the matter is that the smartest people in the world don’t run from stupid, they lean into it (in a smart way).

    In The Power of Starting Something Stupid, Richie Norton redefines stupid as we know it, demonstrating that life-changing ideas are often tragically mislabeled stupid.

    What if the key to success, creativity, and fulfillment in your life lies in the potential of those stupid ideas?

    Richie Norton has written a book about courage. The courage to do work that matters and to do it with your heart and your soul. Go make something happen. — Seth Godin, author of The Icarus Deception
