Leo — Named in honor of genius Leonardo da Vinci, Leo marks a renais­sance in dog toy design! The orig­i­nal con­nectable treat-release toy! The durable, hollow-core con­struc­tion, open neck and two cross-cut holes allow Leo toys to be stuffed with treats. Great fun on its’ own or con­nect two, three, or more Leos to cre­ate cus­tomiz­able treat-release puz­zles (treats can travel from toy to toy). Feed din­ner from a Leo to slow down gulpers, and exer­cise your dogs mind by giv­ing them a “hunt­ing and for­ag­ing” chal­lenge at meal­time. Leo is a great way to help obese dogs lose weight too — extend­ing the dura­tion of a meal can help them feel more sat­is­fied with less food. For dogs 10-200lbs. Weighs .8 lbs., 8“h x 4“w. Dish­washer safe and also great for fetch, tug-of-war, and water sports (they float too)! Made in the USA.

This is the sin­gle most impor­tant thing that I think peo­ple for­get about what social media is: It is, sim­ply, a means to an end. Whether you’re want­ing to engage, broad­cast, enter­tain or be enter­tained, it can do all of these things. How you choose to use it will dic­tate what you get out of it.

Let me say, to close, that I’m not attempt­ing to bash Laporte or Scoble. Both of them, in their own rights, do amaz­ing work. I am, how­ever, bash­ing their argu­ments against the platforms…but I’m also bash­ing yours if you hap­pen to agree with them, so it’s fair play.

So get out there, sign up for every site you feel like using and find out what you like and dis­like about them. You don’t have to like every one of them. We’re all aware; there are stink­ing piles of fail in the clus­ters of social media and social net­work­ing sites. When you do find ones that you enjoy, use them how you want to use them and don’t let peo­ple tell you oth­er­wise. It’s your time, so spend it how you choose.
