]]> Comment on In Context by Jane Weaver Dill http://smallpondgraphics.com/2010/06/24/in-context/#comment-2151 Jane Weaver Dill Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:52:21 +0000 http://www.smallpondgraphics.com/blog/?p=35#comment-2151 Haley, In response to your "In Context" blog which I enjoyed very much, I am now more aware of how context can change how we view and are viewed on social networks online. For example, the realm of Facebook is a hodge-podge of quotes, politics, messages to "friends", announcements of life-changing experiences, struggles, humor, photographs, and music. It took me a while to catch on to its "rules" and etiquette. Now I've found Pinterest and it has a mind of its own too. I really love pinning and being inspired by creative ideas and "Everything" that can be posted on the site. I'm definitely in my element there. But I made the bold attempt to post my Pinterest boards on Facebook and got zero response. After one try I decided that things that fit in the Pinterest context don't necessarily fit on Facebook, and vice versa. I learned quickly that personal comments on Pinterest should be avoided, unlike FB. And that all the DIY inspirations that I plan on doing, I may never get around to. There will be other networks in our future. I plan to be more cognizant as to the guidelines in which these sites are built and to have better intuition when it comes to context. As an artist, I am aware of context in many media. This translates into social media now, something that I must understand in order to keep up with an ever-changing canvas of sharing, inspiring, and communicating.

I'm a huge fan of hand written notes. I've actually got a collection of glass pens and seals and sealing wax to use on special letters. People seem to love that little added touch. Now I'm tempted to try one of these as well! I love this idea! I’m a huge fan of hand written notes. I’ve actually got a collection of glass pens and seals and sealing wax to use on special letters.

I however had the opportunity while growing up to travel a good bit. Who was your Grandmother's family from Polkville. My youngest brother is mayor of the Town of Polkville. I like your pictures of the old water tower and of course White's Cafe or as we know it Nollie's. Hi, I was raised in Polkville, MS.

And I agree - there's nothing else like this store to be found in Mississippi and well beyond. The appeal to every age group - from college ladies to retired - is amazing. And wow - the clothes are both beautiful and so brilliantly comfortable. Perfect for the Southern lady who likes to feel and look amazing in a look all her own. It's been a pleasure working with Luke and Alison - a couple of local entrepreneurs who truly care for their customer and community - and you nailed it - this store embodies that so much! Keep up the great work - you, too, are a gem to work with! Haley – It’s been a blast working with you on this project.

I was borm in Gulfport MS , but was raised on Main Street Northport. The memories stired a heartfelt longing I wasn't even aware of until reading your experience & seeing the photos of Main Street. Thanks so much for appreciating a small part of the world that means the world to me. If that street could talk it could tell my story. Good Luck! K. Bivona Loved your blog on Northport AL.
