An interesting hypnosis experiment recently with Derren Brown on TV (Channel 4, UK) also shines a light, in my mind, on the increasing inter-dependencies of TV and Social Media (Twitter and TV). If you’ve been active online or watched TV anytime in the last 6 months you will also have probably come across another instance of this interdependency with the Susan Boyle phenomenon (YouTube and TV in this case).

Swineshead on Watch with Mothers has made the most interesting observation about the hypnosis gig that that I’ve come across so far and also reflects some of my opinion as well. The TV hypnosis gig was a hoot (I like the performance that Derren puts on) and was a  great example of misdirection and something called ‘presuppositions’ (you’ll learn about those if you ever delve into the world of NLP).

If you have any visibility these days on TV then you must have a Social Media presence … this is where the ‘action’ is and your reputation is on display to the world for discussion.

Happy wanderings
