The initial idea of “Free Hugs” came about from the controversial story of Juan Mann, a man who’s sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives. Make sure to watch his video. In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal. As this symbol of human hope spread across the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity come together in what can only be described as awe inspiring. Join the Ottawa Chapter Facebook Group or the Global Free Hug Facebook Group.
In the Spirit of the free hugs campaign, PASS THIS TO A FRIEND and HUG A STRANGER! After all, if you can reach just one person.
Kudos on the video guys! It’s been re-posted on YouTube by a number of users with a total today of little over 100,000 views :)
It’s nice to see that the concept of virtual office for start-ups still lives. As a previous owner of incubator Borealis Network 2000-2002, I enjoy being involved in similar business models. A friend of mine, Ian Graham has successfully opened his venture “The Code Factory” on the corner of Queen and Kent. The facility offers a wide variety of services for the student, freelancer, start-up and small business from a comfy spot to settle down with a coffee and work the afternoon in the quiet public area cafe style area to leasing a private office on a short term contract.
I’ve had my iPhone for almost a year now. There’s no way I would consider using any other mobile device today. I’ve been playing around with iPhone Apps and making iPhone friendly sites for a while now and I must concur that Apple has just delivered us the beginning of the “Mobile Age Revolution”.
