Sitting is killing you

I recently adopted the standing workstation lifestyle which is all the rage at work. So far, it’s going well. The stress on the feet is noticeable, but that just requires some better shoes and perhaps a mat. The standing at work all day certainly isn’t for everyone, but I have noticed a difference in my energy level at work (though I’m already a pretty energetic person).

This graphic does an excellent job however of terrifying you in to trying it.

How can it be called work when it is so much fun?

I had the chance to shoot some photos on the set of a short film the other day, and thought I’d share.

I also used the photos in an audio slideshow for work. Ignore that fact that I accidentally used the same photo twice, didn’t notice until just now for some reason. Plan on fixing that.

Oh, and we had our first viral feature at MPR this past week. It’s been linked at many of the heavyweight political blogs, including HuffingtonPost, DailyKos, Wonkette and Andrew Sullivan. Also got linked by Comedy Central, Kottke.org, WSJ.com and many others. Got to give props to my colleague Than, who put most of the clever presentation together.

We had a good week.
