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. Several people were asking about what's known as the "diameter" of Wikipedia, that is, the distance between the two articles furthest apart (the longest shortest path if that makes any sense to you).

Last.fm Tumblr Weekly Top Artists - Joe Lazarus. Update: On June 10th, 2011, Tumblr announced a new version of their site that removed the ability to import RSS feeds unless you were previously using that feature.

Since this Last.fm Weekly Top Artists feed was dependent on that feature, I’m afraid it’s no longer available. If you want to import your Last.fm top artists, please contact Tumblr and ask them to reactivate the RSS import option. If you’d like to highlight your music interests from Last.fm on your Tumblr page but don’t want to inundate friends with posts for each track, check out this simple tool I made called Last.fm Tumblr. Instead of generating a post for every individual track you listen to, this feed updates once a week with a list of your top 5 artists from the prior week.

Less noise, same effect. To add the feed to your Tumblr: The feed will automatically update each week on Sunday unless you don’t listen to any music through Last.fm that week, in which case nothing will appear.

This is a picture of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. He was an odd character: a Jesuit priest and also a paleontologist. In this 1955 book, called The Phenomenon of Man... ...he imagined a future in which human minds would be linked together to form a cloud of human awareness surrounding the planet. He called this the noosphere, incorporating the Greek word noos which means mind or consciousness. This was all just an intuition on the part of Teilhard. He really had no clue how such a thing could actually happen.

But not too many years later, another visionary with a much more practical bent showed us how it could. I'm sure you all know Doug Engelbart as the inventor of the mouse, and as a key innovator of two dominant computing paradigms: the graphical user interface, and the hypertextual web of information. Its amazing how much of what enthralls us today was shown in that demo: the GUI, hypertext navigation, the Skype headset. Engelbart's defining moment So, how do we do that? Clip. LibriVox.
