After locking myself out of my flat on Tuesday in a moment of stupidity I’ve spent the last two nights staying in a couple of Wolverhampton’s cheaper hotels.

August 18, 2010. Writing for different audiences: academic journals, professional magazines, and blog posts. 8212; admin @ 1:39 pm. Having just read an article on the differences in the readability of texts in the Sciences, Social Sciences, and Arts and Humanities, I decided to distract myself from my massive pile of work with a quick and dirty investigation into the readability of my own writing in an attempt to answer the question:. Does my writing differ according the audience? With the academic artic...

June 30, 2010. A new blog…with the same old content…. 8212; Tags: Webometric Thoughts. 8212; admin @ 12:37 pm. I have not updated my Webometric Thoughts for almost 3 months, the reason being that Blogger stopped allowing the FTP. Thanks Google. As such I was stuck with a blog that I couldn’t update…at which point it pretty much stopped being a blog. Anyway, I have finally managed to get around to installing WordPress and importing all 471 of the old blog posts.

March 9, 2010. How bad is Chatroulette? 8212; admin @ 10:15 pm. Everywhere I turn at the moment there seems to be a story about Chatroulette.com. Press a button and you are in a random video chat with a stranger somewhere else in the world. Unsurprisingly it is painted as the latest sign of the world going to hell in a handcart: “Who will protect the children? Out of 100 web cams in which the subject was identifiable. 5 contained more than one man. 2 contained more than one woman. 2% were mixed sex groups.
