Sunnyvale Hotels, Fragmented Focus
I’m writing about Sunnyvale hotels not because I’m particularly interested in travel accommodations, but because I’m on a new gig in the Valley. Of course, the Valley is the Silicon one. For those of you who have bothered to keep up with my literary bursts over the months, you know I’ve ping-ponged from Seattle to LA to the Bay Area and have covered everything from cruises to hotels, to music to pop culture, and everything in-between.
Focus isn’t my thing. Yeah, there’s much ado about focused narratives. But, the fact of the matter is we’re living in a more and more fragmented culture. Information is delivered in 120 characters now — a string of sentences on Facebook. Music gets eviscerated by the seven-second video cut and albums are now one-shot iTunes downloads. The world of information is crumbling — and I’m surfing he debris.
I keep it under four hundred words. Why? Because then I can get syndicated by more content syndicates. Think that’s weird? Is it any more weird to keep a song under 3 minutes so you can get your song a forty-five? Is it any more weird to keep your book under 300 pages so you can get it published?
The old school journo-types love to decry the content scramble going on online. Meanwhile, the content scramblers love to slather their foul smelling tripe with platitudes about the democratization of information. Both extremes are shot full of holes — and a little fish like me, well…I just try to get by.
What was I talking about? Sunnyvale hotels — boutique, plush hotels that cater to tourists and business travelers, like me. Will code for money — have laptop, will travel. Yeah, I have a day job, of sorts, but I like to write and I like to make some change on the side. And so, the fragmented bursts continue.
