The Move

Hello G5’ers,

It’s been quite a while since I last wrote to you in this informal, letter-style. I just felt it necessary to address my recent absence from YouTube/the internet as a collective whole and I enjoy this personal style of speaking with you guys.

Initially, there was a delay in videos due to my last few weeks of the college semester, which to say the least was quite hectic with final exams and Broadcasting project deadlines. Once the semester ended during the first week of May, I immediately jumped back into working five days a week at Best Buy and one to two days a week at my media internship. As some of you may or may not know, I’m in the process of moving from my college house to an apartment. Any free day I come across lately has been dedicating to organizing and packing up a year’s worth of stuff into a manageable amount of boxes.

Moving day is June 1st so this situation is very temporary. Once “the move” is complete, producing regular content will be significantly easier. I have a lengthy list of videos I’ve intended to make for months now and this summer is the time for me to do that. These videos include audio production tutorials, a review of my 15” MacBook Pro, videos about my new GoPro Hero 2 as well as a brand new room tour, an apartment tour and much, much more. With my setup being more capable than ever, you all deserve some very high quality content. And I promise to deliver as soon as we are settled into our new place.

The future is bright for the G5 community. This is just a dry spell. I appreciate all of your patience more than I can say and your continued support during times like these is priceless. Thank you all for rocking so hard. As for any of you icone winners, I will be shipping your cones as soon as possible. Again, organizing all the cones and gathering up various addresses from around the world is a difficult task when trying to plan a move. As soon as June 1st arrives, my life will be less busy. So, let’s save the June 1st date as a deadline for shipping the cones to you. Sound good? Iconeography is far from dead. I have countless ideas for expanding the project in the coming year. The project simply requires more time than I can dedicate for the next two weeks. A normal Iconeography schedule will resume after “the move” as well.

The final thing I’d like to touch base on is my second channel on YouTube, ForeverG2. I plan to use this channel to produce not only spontaneous iPhone videos but also heavily produced non-tech related videos. It’s no secret that I’m a new age/philosophy nerd. I’d love to talk about deep subjects with you all via that channel. I’d also love to utilize the channel to point you guys in the direction of interesting books, shoot vlogs and share my art related hobbies as well. I hope you guys are as excited to get to know each other outside of technology as I am.

Until the infamous June 1st date, let’s keep in touch daily via Twitter and keep in touch visually via Instagram. Be sure to subscribe to ForeverG5 and ForeverG2 on YouTube so that when the time comes for new content, you will be the first to receive it. And finally, be sure to follow Iconeography on Tumblr and Twitter to join the ice cream revolution! I care so much about you guys and I really mean it when I say your support matters to me! Remember… you might just see content before June 1st. I just don’t want to make any promises until then.

Thanks for being there when I return,
Caitlin “ForeverG5” Imbimbo

The Best

You shouldn’t have to convince someone that you’re the best. You shouldn’t have to beat somebody else out for a special spot in someone’s life. Someone should just automatically see your value. They should be able to know that you’re the better choice. If someone ever makes you feel second best, whether they know they’re doing it or not, you can do better than them. And anybody who’s desperate to be the best in somebody else’s life probably won’t ever see that you’re the best in their’s.

Getting It Right

We’re going to get it wrong a bunch of times before we get it right. I think it’s inevitable because that’s the only way we’ll learn the difference. It’s kind of like how people say that you don’t know “bad” until you’ve seen “good”. I guess that every time we get it wrong, it is discouraging. But I think a way to stay focused is to look for signs that you are on the path to getting it right. One of the biggest signs of all is when you start recognizing when something is wrong more quickly than you did the last time.

Oh shut up. Every time it rains, it stops raining. Every time you hurt, you heal. After darkness, there is always light and you get reminded of this every morning but still you choose to believe that the night will last forever. Nothing lasts forever. Not the good or the bad. So you might as well smile while you’re here.

My First Electronic Device
Tune in as I give a brief explanation of my electronic history. What was my first tech device? How did I begin using a Mac? Thanks to Jack Hide-Smith for submitting this question!

Jack’s Twitter Page - http://www.twitter.com/NerdofMystery/

My first electronic device was given to me by my uncle somewhere between my 3rd and 5th birthdays and it was the classic Sega Gamegear. Back then, I lived for games like Sonic and The Lion King. Gamegear slowly led me to Nintendo products, such as Game Boy Color. My love for tech began to grow, inducing the purchase of an iPod Mini in 2005 at age 13. After joining a forum to learn how to use the iPod, I was quickly ambushed by Mac geeks, encouraging I switch from Windows. So, I gave the cheapest Mac at the time, an iBook G4, a try. The rest is history.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your OWN inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary

YouTube Partnership For All - My Thoughts
Watch Ben Hughes’ video here: 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rTcGeG95ow&list=UUqi_ijVB1rNTAp—G6wHP2A&…

YouTube has made the choice to open the partnership program up to the public. Is this the end of content creation on YouTube? Is this the beginning of a bright future for monetized content? Here is my take.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the topic. While I do understand why many feel cheated, I think ultimately, high quality content and passionate YouTubers will prevail. Partnership was simply a social status. It’s who we are that will separate us from the crowd as a community. Leave your thoughts in the comments below or in a video response.

Thanks for watching, commenting, subscribing and most of all, being awesome!
