#14 – Gauging popularity

Back to Technorati.

It’s pretty rare that I find something worth reading from a single source, so a good portion of personal blogs simply bore me. The types of things that would interest me are more of a magazine type format, written by several people and containing different viewpoints. This is the same reason I don’t read many political articles, searching for a source that doesn’t have a heavy slant towards the writer’s beliefs can be tough. On the other hand, if I wanted to get upset at people for not agreeing with me, or read articles that pat me on the back for already having beliefs, politics on the internet is a vast untapped resource for me.

Think about how “Learning 2.0″ applies to businesses, and education?

Come on, people, the way we learn and the things we learn will always change. Remember the “New Math”? Yeah, me neither.

Here’s how learning works, and Isaac Newton said it best – Standing on the shoulders of giants. Knowledge leads to further knowledge, it evolves. We are constantly learning more about our world and how to live in it, and in doing so we are constantly redefining the knowledge we already had. One hundred and thirty years ago, it was believed that the Earth traversed a “luminiferous aether” literally swimming through space around the sun.

Surprises?

Not much, but apparently I was linked to by a blogger who accidentally found, and was no doubt confounded by, my blog. Here

Well I’ve got style
Miles and miles
So much style that it’s wasting
