MUSIC BUZZ – A chart which displays the body parts we sing about per genre. Not surprisingly, hip-hop’s leader is “ass”, which is in 23.6% of sampled songs. Gospel and Hip-Hop both sing about “knees” 3% of the time, while everyone else seems to love “eyes” and “hands”.

April in Paris?: A Striking Analysis by a scientist who is a Paris native and who requests anonymity Seasoned visitors to the City of Light always factor in their travel plans the two most prevalent facts of life in France: vacations and strikes. Fortunately, school vacation periods are scheduled in advance with clockwork regularity. Strikes may be nearly as predictable. This preliminary study suggests a strong correlation between occurrences of the two. The right to ...

From a story in The Daily Mail on MadWorld, an upcoming violent game for Wii: John Beyer, director of Mediawatch-uk, said: ‘This game sounds very unsavoury. ‘I hope the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) will view this with concern and decide it should not be granted a classification. Without that it cannot be marketed in Britain. What the rest of world does is up to them. We need to ensure that modern and civilized ...

Мэр 15 лет боролся за эти склады, приложил массу сил, уникальные менеджерские способности, все ради благородной цели — сделать музей. Но ему кажется, что если теперь он все это не прокрутит через свой стройкомплекс, то все было зазря и цель не достигнута. Я помню, в детстве был такой мульфильм, там медвежонок выходил в лес, весь засыпанный снегом, восхищался, и говорил: "Как красиво! Сейчас я все это съем!" Желание вызывало понимание и сочувствие, лес был такой ...

Harrison Hoffman / The Web Services Report: When the ‘wisdom of crowds’ turns on itself: IMDB edition — The concept of the “wisdom of crowds” is a fundamental building block of a lot of the Web 2.0 services that we see today. While not all of them are built on this core concept, major sites like Digg, Wikipedia, and Mahalo rely heavily on crowds being wise.

In Sign Up Forms Must Die, I advocated ways to get people engaged and interested in Web applications and services without requiring an explicit sign-up form. In many cases, registration is an obstacle that prevents people from exploring and engaging with an application. Since then, several people have asked what the impact of removing registration would be on content quantity (does removing sign-up forms increase participation) and content quality (will quality go down if registration ...

In 1989, Swedish author Herman Lindquist published Rapporter från Mittens Rike (‘Reports from the Middle Kingdom’). The title of the book is ambiguous, as it refers to the well-known epithet for China that has come to symbolise its insularity and self-centredness in previous centuries. In this context, the term Middle Kingdom might be interpreted as a reference to France’s continuing tendency to see itself as a major player on the international political, economical and cultural ...
