NetCabinHello, traveller! Welcome to the cabin at the end of the cyber space-time. |

Land of lakesThere are a lot of lakes in Seattle area.
To fly over some of them, check out this Virtual Earth video.
Mesh.comI like Mesh a lot.
For two reasons.
Log-in and file sharing.
Both are seamless.

Video Killed the Radio StarFolks, it has happened again!!
From now on, if you want to show the world a good tip or a cool trick on your computer, just go to http://communityclips.officelabs.com and make a video clip.
Instead of writing a lot of text and adding many screen shots, just record a video clip -- show and tell everyone what you are excited about.
Enjoy the ride! An idea is a lot like a recipeFor making a dish you need (at least):
To prepare a good dish, a recipe is required. Thinking more broadly, a good idea to begin with can't hurt the final result. Happy cooking! Bob saysBob sells Ford cars. Yesterday I asked him about Friday holiday discounts.
Nope, he said, this is just for groceries and smaller stuff, not for cars.
They do have an 'end of year' sale for 2007 models, though.  Wintertime Grande Caramel MacchiatoThe title is a summary of what you see at a typical Starbucks shop inside a big grocery store. It sums up quite nicely that the big winter shopping season is starting, that outside is rather cold and that the scene is ripe for some seasonal flavors like eggnog and cinnamon. Good times! Enjoy winter! All the differenceIt is beyond words
how good it is
that you are back.
You make
the difference. I like blogging"I like juggling" is much more powerful than "I must juggle". Thinking about what you like doing is so much better than thinking about what you think you should or must do. I like blogging. What is bullshit?There are three things to keep in mind regarding BS:
Source: Book "On Bullshit" by Harry G. Frankfurt. BullblogsReading a book about bullshit made me think about reasons I unsubscribe from some blogs.
Consider a funny definition of a BS presentation I found in the book.
It works for bullblogs, too.
In case you'd like to go deeper into the topic, check out books "Bullshit and Philosophy" and "On Bullshit". Anonymity
Interestingly enough and in relation to post about comments on blogs, it seems that even people who begin posting anonymously on their own blogs eventually become annoyed by anonymous comments there. It appears that what they are after is first attention and later relationship building, which (by definition) excludes anonymity.
Clay Shirky has posted speech transcript where he makes this interesting point:
In the long run and on a greater scale anonymity seems to start hindering social part of conversations. In addition to "what is written" it eventually becomes important enough to know "by whom it is written". CommentsA post about comments on blogs that I have read on Joel's blog is quite interesting.
Since everyone can easily post on their own blogs, it makes a lot of sense to write a post on your blog and link to posts that inspired you or helped you when writing that post. This is a great way for raising quality of discussion and giving better visibility to blog posts that deserve it.
Quality of discussion shall raise simply because number of low quality comments shall decrease. Someone who makes a low quality anonymous comment presumably won't make a low quality post on their own blog.
Visibility of blog posts shall rise because of more people linking to them. Such posts shall have better page ranks and shall be more visible. Simply complicatedIt's sort of amusing and rather harmless to observe a dumb person pretending to be smart. The opposite is quite annoying: A smart person pretending to be dumb. Why make life simple if it can be complicated? Magic wordsPlease and thank you are the magic words. If you aren't convinced, try using them. They work. Sorry is a magic word, too. Here's a post I like a lot about word sorry. It describes how mozy.com CEO has used word sorry and I must say I would be very happy to receive such a message, if I were affected by the situation. A very well written message. |
Thanks for visiting. You're welcome to leave a comment in this guestbook.
