Fifty Ways to Take Notes. I am constantly writing notes. Whether it be for my blog, work, meeting, new ideas, or just basic notes, I am always jotting something down. So I started thinking about all the services I’ve used for taking notes and thought it would be a good idea to share them with you and while I’m at it, to make a list of any others that I find. Now, when it comes to note taking, I personally look for quick and simple. If I have something on my mind, I don’t want to go through some advanced system and climb a mountain just to save a note for myself. There won’t be all the note taking tools out there on my list, but ones that I feel get the job done well. Quick Public Pages Using a quick public page service, as I call it, is my favorite method of saving notes on the go. ShortText – Fill in your text, click save, and you’ve got yourself a permanent url to a text note. Basic Note Taking Quick public pages aren’t really made for note-taking, although they work really well for it.

If you haven't, it works like this: Every actor gets a Kevin Bacon number. Kevin Bacon has a Kevin Bacon number of 0, actors who were in a movie with Kevin Bacon get a Kevin Bacon number of 1, actors who were in a movie with someone who has a Kevin Bacon number 1 get a 2, and so on (Everybody always gets the smallest number possible, so if you were in a film with two people, one with a 4 and one with a 6, your Kevin Bacon number would be 5). The same idea could apply to the articles Wikipedia. Instead of taking "in the same film" as the relation, you can take "is linked to by".

We'll call the "Kevin Bacon number" from one article to another the "distance" between them. It's then possible to work out the "closeness" of an article in Wikipedia as its average distance to any other article. I wanted to find the centre of wikipedia, that is, the article that is closest to all other articles (has minimum closeness). Parsing Graph theory. Pictobrowser. AdWords: Keyword Tool.
