September = Double Launch Month: Free Fun Community + Professional Business Websites => Busy. Working. More. No Not Now. Maybe Later :)
Community is where it’s at. We are all each other’s audience.
I will be launching 2 community websites in September. In 1, to join the community will require a paid (but not automatically renewing) paid membership. In the other community, participation will be freely available.
There are many paths to information! There are many roads to success! There are innumerable possibilities, opportunities,… — ways of doing it!
Robert Frost decided to take only one road. Today — with multitasking and parallel realities — taking both is also a possible option… and perhaps not only a viable option but even a profitable path to personal and social growth!

Ein sehr schöner Abend voller Dichtung und Musik :)
Habe viel Spass gehabt!
Die Gedichte waren allesamt wunderbar — und Gerd hat wirklich hervorragend Piano gespielt — einen Bogen von Erik Satie bis Joe Zawinul! 
Ich habe während der Fahrt nach Kaiserslautern ein Haiku mit Herbert und Johanna geteilt (eigentlich habe ich es ihnen aufgezwungen ) … welches ich den letzten Tagen geschrieben habe… habe es auf Englisch gedichtet — darin kommt der Begriff “bliss” vor, und gestern habe heute ich eine “Platte” von Ryuichi Sakamoto auf meinen mp3 Spieler gehabt — und angehört. Das Stück “Moving On” finde ich fängt dieses Streben nach Glück und dem Idealen… (im Song Text: “wherever there is“).
Ich mag Sakamoto als Komponist — er schafft es, wirklich wunderbare Kompositionen aus den verschiedensten Klängen zu kreiren.

I have a dream: For people to get a job (without want / need to contract wage / salary labor :)
The more freedom, the better — so the best way forward is a world without employment!

Great insight from Spencer Fry (I made it ca 5 yrs ago @Pierre’s omidyar.net ;)
Back then I wrote something like “a click is just a click”
Social is immeasurable and a waste of time.

Sent email to Paper.LI yesterday (as requested) No Secrets: plain + simple, the news service quality algorithms need improvement
I respect the privacy of email, so I will not disclose any of my remarks here. Since I haven’t gotten any response yet, I will, however, explicate some of my main points:
-
the quality of the news selection algorithms is quite low — there is really no significantly new information being presented
-
the ranking algorithms are likewise quite poor — primarily keywords, popular twitter users and mainstream media
As a result, the chances of seeing something that you may have otherwise missed are very low — truly a “slim chance“. Instead, you will primarily find what you already know about (besides perhaps a couple high cost ppc keyword rich headlines). And that is the whole point for SmallRivers: The Paper.LI results (an the “as is” state) are simply a content farm, basically acting as an arbitrage website for Google’s adwords / adsense / ppc keyword + banner ads.
In other words, if you like reading top dollar Google adwords advertisements, then Paper.LI is right for you! Otherwise, it’s yesterday’s cheesecloth. 
Maybe someone would like to chime in and also contribute some feedback? As usual, please use the link to the forum post.

#SEO The best thing about this headline is that you understand all of the key words in it :)
One way to grasp the notion of audience — especially online — is to think about their vocabulary. If there is one word in a headline that is not well understood, then that hurts. 2 or 3 nebulous words, and the headline is probably a cognitive fail whale.
Yet one person’s poison is another person’s pleasure: People who read a lot generally have not only a vast store of knowledge, but also a large vocabulary — and so they will “get” what for others is simply a blank. Heads that blank out will not click, heads that grok it may be more likely to click through… this is a form of audience segmentation.
Just a little free lesson from the wisdom of the language.
