New Substack - View from the Plateau

Image
  It was once said that regarding the press, you should never fight with a man who buys ink by the barrel. Today, the same would apply to never picking a fight with someone with a Substack.  However - The Truth is -  If you relate to any of these cartoons, then you should subscribe to Newsletter View from the Plateau , a Substack publication by Mark Coleman, photographer a journalist, blogger, and artist. Newsletter View from the Plateau is more than just a newsletter. It is a platform for dialogue, engagement, and empowerment. You can comment, share, and interact with other subscribers and with Mark Coleman himself. Check it out at  The View From The Plateau | Substack

The Sunday Journalist updates - changes and expansion

Why I'm doing these changes Many writers use a pen name instead of their real name for different reasons. Some want to keep their privacy, some want to avoid being confused with other authors, and some want to create a distinct image for their readers. I chose a pen name for my writing career because I wanted more room and flexibility in my creative expression. My real name is Coleman Mark Cooper , but I will be writing under the name Mark Coleman.  Here are some of the advantages of using a pen name: It gives me more power over my brand and image. I can choose a pen name that matches my personality and writing style.  It allows me to try different genres and styles. I want to include more than one type of writing or one audience. Using a pen name, I can explore various topics and forms of writing without worrying about losing my existing readers or harming my reputation. It gives me more power over my brand and image. I can choose a pen name that matches my personality and wr...

Well that doesn’t quite work

 Well- since my Internet has decided to take the day off - I’ll go mobile and work on my projects online via cellphone.  According to Shaw/Rogers - my neighbourhood node is down for the count.   In the meantime- at least I’m getting some small stuff working. - So I’ll introduce a Little something that’s been on the back burner for a while. Under construction is View from the Plateau newsletter where I’ll start publishing articles and such.  Cole’s notes will still be around as well - so hang in there if you can’t get in touch - my home phone and Internet will be back in a while.

  I confess—I've been using the chat GPT-4 and, of course, Grammarly to help polish my posts and Twitter postings, not to mention my LinkedIn profile. I will probably experiment with other systems to see what I can do to make the Blog a little more exciting. 🌟 Passionate Writer | Creative Project Manager | Photography Enthusiast | Content Creator 📝🚀📸 Let's Connect and Make Magic Happen! ✨ #WritingGoals #ProjectManagement #PhotographyPassion #ContentCreation

The Sunday Journalist for March 31, 2024

Image
Today's Posting Good morning. I'm using the dictation systems to test out this posting and my systems' capabilities. I am working on getting the cold notes blog and my substack page all operational, and this is how I'm testing various things on Sundays. I might try attaching a photograph to this to see if the draft will take a photograph and whether it will be workable to convey the information that I want to, or even maybe attach a video of the week, so bear with me.  Happy Easter to all The Sunday Journalist - Cole's Notes Coleman Mark Cooper Text to: 403-540-5387 Phone 403-295-0044 Email: istudio101@outlook.com Cole's Notes Blog at http://colecoop.blogspot.com Substack @thesundayjournalist

The Great Email Identity Crisis: One Inbox, Many Coles

Image
 The Common Name Conundrum: Navigating Gmail’s Identity Maze Imagine being an early bird, catching the worm, and snagging your name as your    Gmail address. That happened to Cole Cooper, a pioneer of Google’s email service. But what seemed like a digital trophy became a Pandora’s box of mistaken identities. Cole’s tale is a cautionary one for all the John Smiths and Jane Does out there. As his name grew more common online, so did the mix-ups. Emails intended for a footballer, a Marvel character, and other Cole Coopers started landing in his inbox. From personal messages to confidential sign-in instructions, Cole’s digital doppelgängers left him a trail of their digital footprints. The crux of the issue is that companies often fumble when jotting down email addresses. And when they do, the original Cole Cooper’s inbox catches the fallout. The latest? A set of sign-in instructions for an Allstate account meant for another Cole Cooper. A less scrupulous soul might’ve seen t...
