Bang POW – look who’s creating WOW!
Each week, we are offering up a Language Hacker Award (or two) for those that have exhibited the expertise to exercise with excellence the exegesis of expression.
This is the best of what’s out there in terms of the demonstrated understanding of persuasive communication no matter the context and industry. So, in other words, what I’m into and who’s into what I’m into. Hahmana hahmana,what?… I know.
This week, we honor 2 language artists…
Valeria Maltoni. Talk about someone who walks her talk. Valeria does this with each blog post. I read her blog often and find them very insightful. In my Friday Shout Out 2010-07-16, I recommended her Like It or Not You Want to Influence post, the slideshare document below was one of the first recommended to me and was a bridge to me using slideshare. That’s influence.

Mind Hacks’ Tom Stafford and Matt Webb. Yes. A faceless website can win the award. It’s a resource. I’m the creator and I create the categories, damn it. (insert GWB’s face) I enjoy this website and find myself reading it often. The the titles frequently catch my attention while I’m flipping through my Google Reader. Titles like, Poker face science and How murder fell out of fashion with the rich. And one of my favorites, Staying cool when stealing cars that I spoke of in my Friday Shout Out 2010-07-23 post. They have surprising insights into influence and how to use it.

So, there you have it, the Language Hacker Award recipients on this day in history, August 1st, 2010
