看似简单的界面，却通过生动的动画效果——纸张飘动的效果，三维框线与实体照片切换的效果，以及每个元素出场的模糊光晕效果——等等，使整个画面活跃起来。

1. “Hardly anybody reads me.”

If you believe the hype, blogs — those online journals where peoplewrite about everything from politics and sports to their personal lives— will soon be the only thing most people read.

2. “The more companies pay me, the more I like their stuff.”

Companies looking for ways to profit from theblogging phenomenon have tried everything from buying ad space on blogsto infiltrating discussion forums with hired PR shills. They’ve evencreated fake blogs to hawk their products.

3. “Did I mention I’m not a real reporter?”

With major newspapers including “The WashingtonPost” routinely hosting blogs for columnists and reporters, blogging isgaining credibility. But beware: Even those associated with mainstreamnews outlets aren’t subject to the same prepublication safeguards —editing, fact-checking, proofreading — that print publications use.

4. “I might infect your computer with a virus.”

Most web surfers know better than to click on alink promising free money or a trip to the Bahamas. But blogs cancontain malicious code just like any other site.

5. “I’m revealing company secrets.”

When Mark Jen started working at Google in 2005,he was so excited about his new job that the newly minted associateproduct manager started a blog about it, describing orientationmeetings, comparing Google’s pay and benefits package with that of hispast employer, and recounting a company ski trip. Though Jen revealednothing earth-shattering, his blog soon drew an audience eager for apeek inside the tight-lipped firm. Two weeks later Jen was fired. Heisn’t sure just what he wrote that prompted his dismissal, but “wastold somebody at the top wanted me gone,” Jen says.

6. “Just because my name’s on it doesn’t mean I wrote it.”

In 2005 New York City mayoral candidate Fernando Ferrer’s web log mentioned he’d attended public schools; in fact, Ferrer received most of his education in private Catholic schools. When confronted with the error, his campaign admitted the blog was written by a staffer. Ferrer’s predicament was hardly unusual: Politicians, business leaders and other public figures routinely employ ghostwriters to produce books, speeches and, more recently, blogs. One survey conducted by PR consultant David Davis found that only 17% of CEOs who blog do all their own writing.

7. “My blog is just a stepping stone to bigger and better things.”

In some blogging circles, scorn for the mainstream media, or “MSM,” is a virtual religion. Nonetheless, many bloggers have proven eager to join it when the opportunity arises.

8. “I can control what you see on the Internet.”

When search engines like Google calculate their search results — the list you get when you type in specific words — one of the biggest factors in determining order is the number of other sites that link to a given web page. The reasoning goes that it’s a good measure of how useful the content of a web site is to readers — and it often works in favor of blogs.

9. “Blogging just about ruined my life.”

In 2004 Oregon resident Curt Hopkins was getting ready to fly to Minnesota for a job interview at a radio station. But before he got on the plane, the station canceled the meeting. The reason? His blog, Morpheme Tales. Hopkins had made some harsh remarks in it about the Catholic Church a few weeks before the scheduled interview, remarks he suspects sank his chances of getting hired.

10. “I’m already obsolete.”

How long can the blog bonanza last? There are already signs of a slowdown: The growth rate of blogs let up for the first time in third-quarter 2006, and overall daily postings fell to 1.3 million in September from 1.6 million in June, according to Technorati. “There’s a certain faddish quality to what’s going on,” says technology writer Nicholas Carr. “We’re probably at or near the peak of popularity of writing blogs.”

前段时间，听新闻报道，英国一个科学家研究出一种芯片，可以连接到手臂的神经末梢，植入芯片的人可以通过思想来控制芯片另一端的机械装置。虽然，现在还只是雏形阶段，但有了开始就是一大进步。

假如，真的有一天，人类可以通过大脑发出指令给植入身体内的电脑芯片，从而控制连接在身体各个部位的装置，那岂不是可以做很多以前不可能做到的事情？更进一步想象，仅仅只保留大脑和神经网络，而其他的所有组织都是人工打造，没有肉身的种种限制，可以去任何可以想去的地方，抑或是外部组织不再以人形出现，而可以变换成各种不同的形式？再进一步想象，人类的思想与灵魂真得需要人类的大脑才能寄托么？也许，可以将思想和灵魂转换到生物芯片中，从而彻底的摆脱人类的躯壳，如果真的这样，未来人类这个物种还将会存在么？寄托人类灵魂的“机械“将会变成统治者，真正的人类将面临如何继续生存下去的问题。

话说回来，如果真有一天，人类身体中植入电脑芯片，万一被某个神通广大的黑客控制，抑或是感染了病毒，那人类还控制自己的行为么？

不敢设想，庆幸现在的科技还没有达到那样的程度，我还是我自己。

在Blog如火如荼的今天，个人写文章已经变得如此普及，每个人都希望把自己生活中的趣事/工作中的烦恼/学习的爱好等等各方面在网络上呈现给大众。忽然间，网络的信息量变得如此的庞大，以至于不得不需要阅读器来整理收集对于个人有用的信息。

然而，权威性的缺乏，也导致了如此海量的信息，其真正有价值的不过寥寥。于是，Blog群出现了，其目的就在于通过群内具有相同信息库结构的人以自己的判断标准来为每一篇Blog评分，优胜劣汰的竞争方式，促进了信息的优化。由此也演化出类似Digg这样的网站。

随着Blog信息数据分析的深入挖掘，寻找每个领域权威性信息似乎变得越来越容易了，只需要经常关注几个典型的Blog信息分类网站，就可以很快的找到适合的信息。但这样一来，信息也会变得越来越长尾化，越接近尾部的信息越难以被人获取，由此而造成了信息的同质化，也即是人们获取到的信息相似度越来越高。

于是，如何提高长尾信息的被获取量，又将是摆在人们面前的一个课题。传统的信息检索方式已经不能满足需求，分类垂直搜索似乎也不能有效地解决长尾问题。没有Rank？ 又会丢失掉一些有价值的信息。Rank加随机？搜索的目的又何在？

好吧，好吧，我承认自己跑题了，:) 不过数据分析真的是一个很有魔力的学问。

春节回家，家里的侄子和外甥女又要缠着我陪他们玩了。想着给他们带些有意思的礼物，于是去买了一套乐高玩具和一套迪斯尼文具。自己小时候很喜欢玩积木，喜欢自己用积木拼出自己想象中的东西，对于文具也一直羡慕于同学的高级铅笔盒，我想这两件礼物也在一定程度上圆了自己的梦吧。:)

还有一个可爱的铅笔刀。:)

原本去杭州时并没有想到要坐高速铁路，只是同事说高铁刚刚开通，而且是直达杭州的，速度也快，于是乎，赶了回新鲜。

买的早上8：30的车票，到了上海南站，在候车室就可以看到外面的列车，第一感觉就是车头很酷，名副其实的子弹头，整个车都是白色的，中间镶了一条蓝条，整趟列车由两个机组连接起来，每个机组头尾各有一个机车，给人感觉似乎是正反都可以开的。

列车的车厢高度比较低，车门基本上和站台平齐，可以不用上下台阶了，不过车厢内部很宽敞，一排有5个座位，每个座位都象航空座位一样可以斜躺下来，前面座位后方也有小桌板，不过它的前后座之间的间距比一般的737要宽，像我这样的身高，坐下来膝盖不会再顶到前方座位了。另外，每一组座位都可以做360度旋转，也就是前后排的座位可以转成面对面形式的。靠窗口有可以开关的通风口，也有下拉式的遮阳帘。

另外厕所也专门分成男女用，还有专门为残疾人提供的，热水器都换成桶装水了，有的车厢还设置有吧台，提供食品饮料这些，总的来说，整个列车给人的感觉很舒适，只是，为什么不安置电视呢？

(照片是用手机拍的，质量上稍微差些:P )

很久没有看到这种大画面背景的网站了，很简单，小字体的英文显得很讨巧，让整个网站变得很精致，虽然动画效果并不多，但依然能够给人眼前一亮的感觉。

什么样的礼物最能让收礼人感到开心呢？我想，首先在没有告知的情况下，意外的惊喜应该是最能打动人心的，然后呢，自然就是送礼人经过精心挑选，从收礼人的角度来考虑问题所选择的合乎心意的礼物，也是能够让收礼人感到开心的。

礼物不在乎贵重与轻贱，更重要的是一份心意。证明，还有人在牵挂着你，想念着你，这样就足够了。人与人之间，是需要不断的沟通与交流，才能维系彼此的感情，而礼物在这中间起着一个重要的桥梁作用。请善待每一份你所收到的礼物吧，因为这都是一份份的感情与心意。

下午，闲来无事，溜达到电影院看了《007之大战皇家赌场》，总的来说，感觉还可以。从情节上来说，比起前几部要好，故事有点间谍片的悬念。开场的街头追逐和打斗有点成龙片的味道，不过电影的结尾有点突兀，交待的过分简单，总在期盼影片后面有些刺激惊人的场面，结果却是草草收场。另外，007的设备显得太过于简陋了，没有期待的高科技和新鲜花样，007车也一点不出彩。有朋友说，预告片里有个VAIO笔记本开启着慢慢沉入海底后来被潜水员打捞上来又能继续使用的场景，结果等啊等，一直到电影结束都没等到，哎，害得我一直在期盼电影后面的情节。
