i now have a silly favicon, thanks to Photo Matt's - how-to-create-a-favicon
it should look something like this:
though smaller, of course - only problem is it doesn't show up on Bloglines (which is the reason i created it in the first place...) - oh well, probably something to do with the fact that i use the free blogger service so the icon resides elsewhere. If you know how to fix this - give us a shout -- hy [underscore] de [underscore] sign [at] hotmail [dot] com
it should look something like this:
Giving is Receiving - the hypermedia research centre - University of Westminster
" 'We must rediscover the pleasure of giving: giving because you have so much. What beautiful and priceless potlatches the affluent society will see - whether it likes it or not! - when the exuberance of the younger generation discovers the pure gift.' - Raoul Vaneigem, The Revolution of Everyday Life, Practical Paradise, London 1972, page 70. "
- looks like an interesting book/author
- loads of other writing etc. on the nothingness site

InfoVis Looks at Blogosphere some interesting thoughts - but no mention of the various touchGraph blog/LJ visualisations or of the blogtribe on Ryze
- i guess i should really remove myself from the London Bloggers map - but as that is where my roots/routes are, i feel it is a legitimate bit of truth stretching - this freedom raises some interesting questions about other open/user generated maps (or other info presentation mechs - blogs, wiki's, etc.) and truth...

Paulo Coelho downloads page - inlcuding the first chapter of
VERONIKA DECIDES TO DIE, 1999 [trf] - which is just a superb book.
There are also a couple of shorter pieces, on the Sant Jordi Ass. site, including:
ON MASTERS AND DISCIPLES OF ZEN BUDDHISM - which includes, amougst other gems, this:
"(Old Samurai maxim)
If a man keeps his eyes fixed only on what is good, he will be incapable of learning, because if he does not know evil, evil can catch him unawares.
(Murasaki Shikuku)"

M.A. Boudourides: Social and Psychological Effects in Computer-Mediated Communication ~good looking references, so might be worth reading
frank thissen is quoted in e-learn mag feature
Feelin’ Groovy "The problem is not the technology, the problem is that nearly all of the [e-learning] environments I know metacommunicate dreariness and boredom, and they only address the cognitive part of learning.”
His work looks interesting...

The Lessons of Lucasfilm's Habitat clay says: The best essay on online community (and on collaborative gaming) ever - so this should be worth a read :)
