Worldwide Minute 2015

March 4th, 2015
This years second annual Worldwide Minute is scheduled for March 15th at 5.47pm. Some of you may have participated in it last year. It was started by 365's very own Paula Wallis @westcoastwallis and this is the link to the event: https://www.facebook.com/events/770820719662768/

The Worldwide Minute is a way for us to share, for just a fleeting moment, a tiny glimpse into our lives, no matter where in the world we may be.

Last year there were nearly 500 people who participated, from nearly 20 countries, and it was AMAZING.

To explain the rules; at precisely 5:47pm, your time, on Sunday, March 15th, 2015, I ask you to stop, look around, and capture what you're seeing in front of you, to share with us.

I will put up a reminder post a day or two before. Alternatively you can set your phone to remind you. You can also tag your photo worldwideminute15 on 365 and post on this thread if you'd like to share on here.

Here is a video of last years Worldwide minute: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=525275400923430&set=vb.255167221267584&type=2&theater

@shutterbugger Good idea Jenn. Maybe if I forget to post a reminder on here then you could :)

I will try to remember. Good idea to put a reminder on one's phone.
March 4th, 2015

March 5th, 2015
A wonderful idea!
March 5th, 2015
@cindyloo If I lost my phone I'd wander in circles dazed and confused. Glad to hear I'm not alone!
March 5th, 2015
@northy ....because she doesn't have the Facebook
March 5th, 2015
I'm in! Can you tag me March 15'th so I'll remember?
March 5th, 2015
I'm in too.
March 5th, 2015
@shutterbugger i'm confused... ok so we're going to do this on 365? i can play even if i don't fb?
March 5th, 2015
that's a great idea
March 5th, 2015
Count me in!
March 5th, 2015
@summerfield I was in the ladies last year.
March 5th, 2015
Oh, fun. I'll have to mark that on my calendar.
March 5th, 2015
This is a great idea! I'm in.
March 5th, 2015
@northy Sure you can. Perhaps you could email your photo to Paula and she could include it on facebook too.
March 5th, 2015
@kiwichick i did join that event :)
March 5th, 2015
better tie a string on my finger
March 5th, 2015
I'm never too conscious of time but I'm going to try!
March 5th, 2015
Sounds great, I'm in too :)
March 5th, 2015
I signed up on Facebook yesterday. What a great idea!
March 5th, 2015
Sounds a great idea! :-)
March 5th, 2015
I am now posting sticky notes all over the house so I don't forget!!

@cimes1 And thanks Carole for informing about this on FB too.
March 5th, 2015
Such a fun idea! I'm in.
March 5th, 2015
I'll try to remember. Love the idea.
March 6th, 2015
@kiwichick I'm quite happy to live without Facebook ;p
March 6th, 2015
I have already said "I am in" On FB. It may be a VERY boring photo unless I take myself somewhere more interesting than my norm
March 6th, 2015
Would love to do this!
March 6th, 2015
I will definitely try to be in!
March 6th, 2015
@northy Ha ha. I actually meant to say she could include it in the slide show perhaps. That would be available even if you don't have facebook. Either way, you can still participate if you'd like :)
March 6th, 2015
@kiwichick well - my point was that i could care less about playing if it's all about Facebook... i wouldn't feel in the least left out if my image didn't appear there... happy to play on 365...
March 6th, 2015
I'm with @northy. I intentionally do not have a FB account. I'd be happy to start a thread here on 365 in order to share here.
March 6th, 2015
@northy @voiceprintz It's certainly not a facebook "thing". Facebook is just being used to spread the word. As is this thread... so please do play along and I will start a new thread around the 14th for people to post their photos on here :)
March 6th, 2015
@northy @voiceprintz no Facebook exclusivity here:) The whole point of the Worldwide Minute is to include everyone, from everywhere, from all walks of life! Some people are sharing and tagging on twitter and Instagram as well, so why not 365? :)
The only reason I chose Facebook as a platform is just for the reach, ease of use, and because I'm already on there!
Looking forward to seeing your 5:47pm (I MISS your shots @northy !!)
@kiwichick - thank you so much for sharing on here for me!!
March 13th, 2015
Sounds like a cool thing to do. Look forward to seeing where everyone was at that moment.
March 15th, 2015
@kiwichick hi Lesley, I've posted my 5.47 shot on the home page do I need to post it here as well? if so, can you please explain how I go about it
