Krista and I planned to attend this tonight. It doesn't begin until 6pm but she said she'll be there at my house at 5:15. I'm not sure why she wants to be there so early but that's fine too. Jonni texted me to see if I wanted to attend the BBQ with "them"-I wonder if "them" includes David and his date Shiersta or whoever he might select for the evening. I texted her back that Krista and I would meet them there.

I didn't realize Monday was Labor Day but it is and I think that is the perfect time for me to work on refining my thesis. Tomorrow, Saturday and Monday are providing me with the time I need to do a huge chunk of this!!! I've avoided it for about 4 months now. I have changed it several times already. I really want to do it on the Pintrest Paradigm now and how recommendations are significantly changing the way businesses perform and respond. I'd like to begin with Amazon.com but then discuss the influence of Facebook, Twitter AND then Pintrest. My unruly hair has led me to try MANY products over the years. There was some product I bought that was supposed to help your hair gain manageability. Demonstrations showed mostly black women have their hair transformed by this product. It was sold through an infomercial. The creme was about $100 and came with some clips and a comb. It didn't work anything like the ad implied. Soon after this the ad was taken down and the company was sued for fraud. I'm sure I could've filed something BUT it required more time than I was willing to spend to try to retrieve something I was sure I wouldn't see any results from. Now before I buy anything I review comments made online. Amazon.com has successfully used this valuable resource for some time now. Both consumers and the vendor benefit from learning more about what each want and can actually deliver. Pintrest gathers products, information and recipes. I find it extremely valuable  to read what others have felt as they have tried to replicate products. The comments clarify instructions for me. I don't just blindly try something new. I look for comments and suggestions by people who have completed the project before.

I wrote a little about this before in here one day. Time for research!!!
