How Taylor Swift Shot to the Top

(Newser) – Barring interference from Kanye West, Taylor Swift heads to Nashville to fight for country music's top prize tonight: Entertainer of the Year. The 19-year-old singer is up against the old boys of the industry, but Randy Lewis of the LA Times thinks she's got a shot. If the Pennsylvania-born Nashville transplant wins, she'll be the first woman to win the title since 2000, and the youngest recipient ever.

she sold more albums last year than anyone; and last week's SNL appearance helped deliver the show its highest ratings this season. What's her secret? "She's done it by cannily employing the four T's of pop music: talent, tenacity, technology, and teens," writes Lewis. All that blogging, emailing, and tweeting has built a powerful fan base, which she works hard to maintain. Case in point: Swift got an email praising her performance on a CBS special—and shot back a thank you via Blackberry...as the show was still taping.

How GeoCities Invented the Internet

clipper's remarks: A garish collection of home pages paved the way for blogging, social networks, and the rest of Web 2.0.

On Monday, Yahoo put GeoCities out of its misery, shutting down the last remaining pages on one of the Web's original site-hosting services. It was an ignominious end—and some would say a fitting one. Yahoo's $3.5 billion purchase of GeoCities in 1999 has been called one of the worst Internet acquisitions of all time. After all, just look at those pages! Brimming with blinking, moving, garishly colored text and animated dancing cats, GeoCities made MySpace look like a bastion of elegance and restraint. Indeed, the surprising thing about GeoCities' closure was that it was still around. One of the fastest-growing sites in the 1990s—at the time of the Yahoo purchase, it was the third-most-visited property on the Web—GeoCities hit hard times after the merger. Eventually, the "home page" fad was surpassed by blogs and social-networking sites—and the fact that you'd once set up a GeoCities page became an embarrassing confession rather than a sign of your early-adopter savvy.

Should We Trust The Experts?

clipper's remarks: "None of this suggests the public should abandon a healthy skepticism toward even well-credentialed authorities. Pharmaceutical companies, with colossal missteps like the dangerous medication Vioxx, have earned suspicions about their motivations.
Vaccinations foregone put not only those individual children at risk but clear the path for infectious disease to spread more easily. That's not a great outcome, whether we're collectively battling the measles or this season's H1N1 flu.

"You can't minimize your individual risk," Wallace writes, "unless your herd, your friends and neighbors, also buy in."

Our children most certainly deserve safe vaccines; that's a given. I don't blame people for not trusting special interest groups. I just thought this article brought out some interesting points regarding social media.

Two weeks after the story hit the Internet, the e-mail keeps flowing. A majority voice support for “An Epidemic of Fear: How Panicked Parents Skipping Shots Endangers Us All.” But at least one in five disagrees. Many seethe with indignation. A few sling vile names and veiled threats.

Wallace has run smack into an abiding, perhaps growing, phenomenon of the Internet Age: Citizens armed with information are sure they know better.

Unhappy with the scientific consensus that man's activities have exacerbated global warming? Then just find and promote the academic naysayers. Or merely post your personal musings: "Climate change, bah, there's a foot of snow on my lawn."

The rise of computer literacy, high-speed Internet connections, blogging and social networks has emboldened the common man to tell his own story and, sometimes, to disdain trappings like a university degree, professional training or corporate affiliation.

Recently I have been experimenting with traffic techniques and came across this little gem and wanted to share it with you all. A 100% free blog traffic technique technique that brings in some good targeted traffic to your own blog or website.

This is Blog Commenting. That’s right, going to other peoples blogs leaving comments and getting traffic back to your site. Now you could think I’m crazy at this point or think this method is ineffective, crazy, boring, whatever you may think. But trust me it works!

When you go to another blog after a post you get the chance to leave a comment on that post, but also and more importantly you get to put a website url in your comment box so if another viewer decides they can click your name and head on through to your site.

Alan comes to Stephen's rescue

clipper's remarks: Stephen Fry is one of the wittiest people I have ever come across ~ it's sad to see that even a celebrity such as him can be hard hit by depression.

Clip Source: news.bbc.co.uk

Stephen Fry has made online peace with another user of the micro-blogging site Twitter who called his posts "boring".

The actor and presenter, who has more than 900,000 followers, had threatened to leave the site, saying there was "too much aggression and unkindness".

Fry and the user later apologised to each other, with the star saying his reaction had been "a mood thing" and he now felt "more sheepish than a sheep".

The disagreement began when the other tweeter said: "I admire and adore" Mr Fry, but added that he found his tweets "a bit... boring... (sorry Stephen)."

Fry then sent a message to the user, saying: "You've convinced me. I'm obviously not good enough. I retire from Twitter henceforward. Bye everyone."

He later said he was feeling "very low and depressed at the moment".

Alan Davies, who stars with Fry in the television quiz QI, also waded in, calling the criticism of him "moronic".

The user later said there had been an "over-reaction" and he was "aghast at how far this has gone".

Don't Take Sleep For Granted

clipper's remarks: If you haven't turned them back already, then don't forget to turn your clocks back. "Spring ahead and fall back," as the old saying goes. But, don't be surprised if you find yourself feeling just a little bit "dis-combobulated" today as a result of the time change. Personally, I have always experienced some difficulties when it is time to change the clocks. Apparently, I am not the only one.

According to sleep researchers, many people experience disruption in their sleep patterns. Below, you will find some recommendations for how to minimize sleep disruptions and make sure you get sufficient sleep to keep on amplifying, clipping, clicking, tweeting, and blogging.

When Clocks Change, Body May Need Time to Adjust

Stay away from caffeine and other stimulants, especially during the days before and after the time shift, and avoid napping for a few days because it can disrupt your sleeping at night.
Sleep through that extra hour if you can instead of trying to get things done.
Don't drive if you feel sleepy because of the time shift. Consider taking public transportation for a few days to give your body time to adjust.
Relax, avoid stress and remember to take your regular medications over the weekend of the time change.

For most people, the time shift in the spring is more problematic because an hour is "lost" rather than "gained," but for those who are disrupted by any change in schedule, Malhotra offered these coping tips:

After spending a few weeks with both new operating systems and exposing each to my geek's gauntlet of everyday tasks -- e-mail, instant messaging, Web surfing, blogging, creating and editing Office documents, Web page creation, and audio, video, and photo editing -- I have to call Snow Leopard the winner. All considered, from starting up to backing up, Mac OS X still offers the best overall user experience. The competition was close, though -- far closer than it's been in quite a while.
