purepedantry | November 28, 2006This is super interesting. Acephalous is trying to measure the speed of a meme -- an infectious idea -- as it spreads through the blogosphere. More importantly, he is trying to figure out whether they spread from the bottom up through low-traffic blogs or from the top-down through high traffic or both.
Here is his description:
What is the speed of meme? People write in general (typically truimphant) terms about how swiftly a single voice can travel from one side of the internet to the other and back again, but how often does that actually happen? Of those instances, how often is it…
clock | November 28, 2006In the similar vein to this morning's post (and the neccessary link within it) on the speed of meme-spreading, I tried to do this little experiment about a year ago (October 12, 2005) with no success - perhaps because I asked for more than just a link. Now that my audience is much bigger, let's try again:
-----------------------------------
There are estimated to be more than 20 55 million blogs in existence. Somebody somewhere knows the answer to my question. If every one of my readers (who also owns a blog) copies and pastes this post on their blogs, it should spread through the entire…
clock | November 28, 2006Some things spread like wildfire across the blogs. But, can an artificial meme, designed specifically to measure the speed of its spreading, spread as fast? If we know its speed, can we know its position at the same time, and vice versa? You'll know the answer (pretty soon) if you link to this from your blog.
Perhaps it would be more useful to track the already existing and popular memes, like Beautiful Bird Meme, Random Quotes Meme, Silly Blog Meme, Four Meme, Zero Meme, Dirty Thirty Meme, States Meme, Obscure-But-Good-Movies Meme, Four Jobs Meme, The Blogging Blog Meme, Browser Meme,…

clock | November 27, 2006Is this useful to you?
It is useful to me, for sure, as my blogroll is in a bad need of updating. By doing this, I get to clean-up my Bloglines, update the feeds on blogs that have moved, delete dead blogs, revisit some old friends I have not read in a while, and add new blogs that you suggest in the comments.
But it it useful for you? Have you discovered, checking my blogrolling posts, any blogs new to you that you really liked and decided to bookmark/blogroll/subscribe for yourself?

clock | November 26, 2006Pam has moved from here to here. You have to register to comment, but the process is easy. The new site is built on Soapblox and looks gorgeous. Oh, and you'll be able to post your own diaries in the near future.
So, change your bookmarks, blogrolls and newsfeeds and enjoy your morning cup of Pam's brew.
clock | November 26, 2006 I am sure glad that others have started parsing the numbers of the new report on 'The Internet as a Resource for News and Information about Science'.
Duane Smith takes a close look at a couple of tables in the report and concludes that, while relatively few people say they get their information on evolution directly from the Bible and Church, many do so indirectly, by beeing steeped in their comunities' beliefs transmitted by family, friends and neighbors (as well as local and church-run media). Interesting take (and I agree with him on this). What have you found so far?
