Do It: Check Out Blog Wild

My pal, Ford, is doing a new blog for National Geographic. A great way to keep up with the planet via readable, photo-heavy entries with irreverent titles.

My favorite so far: the headline "Canada Rules World" on an entry about a team of three teens who won the National Geographic World Championship (the international version of the Geography Bee). Woefully, the "brand" could never come up with something so ironic and funny and relaxed.

So, do it: check out Blog Wild.

PS - You can learn all sorts of stuff at National Geographic. One of my favorite recent ah-ha moments was discovering Africa's "desert blues." Oh, and "Ai du" by Vieux Farka Touré is wild; now playing on iTunes.
