The wow, wild, woes, worrisome and weird of the year 2021 -
- Wake up your ears with this list of EPs (extended plays) of the Year from Paste Magazine. According to Paste, extended plays are "not quite a single and not quite an album, but just as potentially deserving of your eardrums as either of its siblings."
- Paste also shared its take on the top documentaries of 2021, as well as many other top 2021 lists.
- YouTube shared its top ads for 2021. I have a crush on Jake at State Farm, but please do not tell my American Family insurance agent.
- Here is what we searched for on Google in 2021 via a video and on this page.
- Here are the best movies of 2021 according to Vox, including where to watch them. I'm going to need a lot of popcorn.
- Check out the Year in Pictures from National Geographic, ABC, CNN, Time, and Washington Post. After viewing some of these pictures if you are now in need of relief, check out these funny animal pics.
- Speaking of animals, if you have a pet at home, here is a list of the popular pet names for 2021. I'm going to test these names the next time I'm at the dog park.
- Here is the Year on TikTok. If you missed SNL on 12/11/21, they nailed TikTok in this skit.
- Pinterest is a social media platform that is not about instant, but all about planning for the future. Here is what they predict for 2022.
- If you are looking to share your own year in review, here is how to do so on Facebook and Instagram.
- Time's Person of the Year is Elon Musk. My dream is to co-found TEDxMars with Elon. If anyone knows him will you please intro me?
- Popular Mechanics shares its lists of top products 2021.
- Fast Company shares a list for the best of product design 2021.
- And the word of the year is . . . Allyship. This gives me such hope!
I'm going to take a break on newsletters through mid-January. Winding down 2021, then starting 2022 with a sunshine holiday in Mexico. See you next year and much love to you all!
