]]> Comment on To Google or to Wikipedia? That is the Question. by opencontent http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=55&cpage=1#comment-3834 opencontent Tue, 07 Oct 2008 21:40:15 +0000 http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=55#comment-3834 Once upon a time, long long ago, Yahoo was a browsable index of the web. There is still one group trying to use humans to index the Internet (http://www.dmoz.org/). While Wikipedia doesn't have this as one of its primary goals, its insistence one citations has, as a by-product, turned it into the best human-categorized index of the web...

Obviously there are a massive amount of revisions happening all the time, but are these the normal revisions that happen when drafting an article or the types of revisions that bury uglinesses and make dull things seem to sparkle; i.e., revisionist history as we would generally think about it?

]]> Comment on Purposeful Communication by radpace http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=22&cpage=1#comment-156 radpace Fri, 19 Jan 2007 17:45:52 +0000 http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=22#comment-156 Great post. I found it on the Provo Labs Planet. I had the opposite experience the other day. I went to my parents home and asked my mom how my brother is doing. He is in a drug rehab facility. As she talked about this I started debating her about several points (like ADD and him being bi-polar). And this just got her going. Well I was trying to have "purposeful communication". After I got home and told my wife about it she rebuked me. She said my mom just wanted a listening ear and wanted to talk about it. So there are times when it is best to just listen and keep things to yourself. Great post. I found it on the Provo Labs Planet. I had the opposite experience the other day.

]]> Comment on Second day of work by whitter http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=2&cpage=1#comment-3 whitter Thu, 02 Mar 2006 14:20:37 +0000 http://yvettearts.com/blog/?p=2#comment-3 Wow! What a day! We all know that you can stand, with or without that bio. I’m not sure if you could really write something that would give you justice, despite the fact that your writing skills are beyond reproach. I like the questions that you asked. We definitely learn by asking questions, and most often, we only get answers to the questions that we ask. Of course I am thinking about those questions from a qualitative research point of view. One question that I think we should continually be asking is “What am I missing?” In one of my classes earlier this week, we looked at www.scientificpsychic.com/graphics. I started asking myself, “What is the point of this exercise?” I decided that a part of it is simply that our perspective always isn’t what is really there. Also, perhaps we shouldn’t be so trusting of ourselves. Rather, we should continually be seeking to know, understand, and to become. And I want to have a conversation with you about Malcom Gladwell’s book, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking. We’ll go there some other time. Wow! What a day!
