The other day, an acquaintance of mine on Facebook posted this astonishing video:
In it, a young elephant is seen painting a self-portrait — a stylish line drawing of an elephant. It holds a paintbrush delicately in its trunk and slowly creates an image with precise, artful strokes.
Although this video is real, it is not the whole story. The whole story is disturbing.
This is the photo that interrupted our travels in Greece last week.
When was the last time you deliberately went to a corporate website to learn how to do something?
If you can’t remember the last time (and I can’t), then you’ve probably done a lot of your research and learning on YouTube.
YouTube has become the first destination for anyone who wants to learn anything, from fixing a pipe to beating a video game. This means that if you’re not using YouTube to reach your customers, then you’re missing a huge portion of your potential audience.
I’m very excited to be launching, together with my wife Uzema Jeena, a new YouTube series titled “Living with Thalassemia.”
