I just read this on Twitter, from @SciencePorn:

“If the Sun was scaled down to the size of a white blood cell, the Milky way would be the size of the continental United States.”

I started thinking about that. If the sun is the size of a white blood cell (which, by the way, is about 1/700 the size of a red blood cell), the earth would be so tiny it would be nearly undetectable. The sun would be 10-12 micrometers in diameter, and the undetectable earth would be orbiting 93 inches (less than 8 feet) away from it (if I calculated my ratios correctly).

Curation Sucks! And, There is an Alternative

By on Monday, October 28th, 2013 | 12 Comments

Image representing Curated Content as depicted...

Seems like everyone is on the curation bandwagon, believing it is the be-all and end-all of online publishing. Well, I am going to explain just how stupid that line of thinking is.

First of all, think about this. Almost everything that has ever been published on the web is curated content.

Say what?

You got it right. Nearly everything is curated. In other words, there is not one word published on the ‘net that has not come from somewhere else, originally published by someone else.

5 Tips for Writing the Perfect Blog Post

By on Sunday, October 27th, 2013 | 12 Comments

Blogging Readiness

Writing blog posts on a regular basis can be a pain in the *ss. Not everyone is a natural writer (I’m definitely not), and getting that perfect “flow” between paragraphs to create a great article is a formidable task. On top of that, just thinking of enough content to include in a post can be pretty daunting.

In order to improve my writing skills, I have been visiting a wide variety of blogs and picking up a ton of useful tips and tricks to keep the posts coming. An inspiring site is the IncomeDiary.com blog operated by Michael Dunlop. Michael has narrowed blogging down to a fine science, and I’ve learned quite a bit from reading his posts.

English: Megaphone for recording Türkçe: Kayıt...

Recently, I decided to explore using Google Alerts to come up with topics to write about (sorry, Zemanta, your suggestion email didn’t cut the mustard). As I was setting some simple alerts up (blogging, cycling, coding, etc.), I started thinking of other things I could use Google Alerts for – such as tracking certain website activities or competing businesses or sports teams or political issues – the list goes on and on.

Social Pressure

English: Logo for the Addicted to Social Media...

Jonathan Leger, on his blog, tells a cute story about social pressure. It goes something like this:

(A) research group went around neighborhoods in California and put one of four signs on people’s doors. Each sign encouraged the homeowner to conserve energy, and gave a reason to do so. The four reasons were: 1) to help the next generation, 2) to save money on your electricity bill, 3) to save the planet, and 4) because your neighbors are already doing it. After some time passed, the group went back to the houses and measured the electricity usage against the reading they took before putting up the signs.
