ElectricVenom on... Thinkers v. Linkers v. Iso, Extra v. Intra and the sleazy politics of removing people from and adding people to your blogroll. 2007-05-05T09:57:53ZUntitled entry permalink

Clever stuff about the blogosphere --TZTitled entry permalink

You can sit and read all of this and try and understand all the funky words -- "hypersphere", "superbrains", "hyperballs" etc. Or you can just make like me and spend all your time staring at the pretty pictures. Exciting, if confusing this late at night. On the archive page linked to above, there is a very nice guide on the blogging process. (Thanks, Doc Searls for the link)

Incrementalists and Completionists 2007-05-05T09:56:55ZTitled entry permalink

A nice bit of pop psychology on how you solve problems. I'm not sure myself - at times I'm an incrementalist (things like websites are never finished) and at times I'm a completionist (you can't hand in an "incremental" photography project or law essay can you?).

LotR Meme Check 2007-05-05T09:58:26ZTitled entry permalink

We have some nice Elvish fonts will keep the strange homo-erotic, cable-TV-watching hobbits at bay. Fellowship has no meaning **whatsoever** thanks to these diaries....

Must go now, have to raise massive demon army to scourge the earth. Also, have manicure appointment.

As well as that, there is an unbelievable amount of crossovers between LotR and Harry Potter. Not to mention the odd Simpsons crossover.

Okay, I must get some sleep and some Tolkien.

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
