Where the heck did I find that image? (also: uh-oh, Cyberstalking)

2013-07-19 | Reading time: 1 minute

If you want to use an image but don't know where you found it (so you cannot cite it and thus should not use it), there's a simple solution for it. Which also works wonders in cyberstalking.

2013-07-17 | Reading time: 1 minute

Two videos showing my reading workflow -- how everything I highlight is exported and how it ends up in my topic notebooks. Very comfortable way in dealing with notes.

The more things change, the more …

2013-07-15 | Reading time: 1 minute

It's strange when you look at an old video and realize: Hey, that's exactly how things are today. Also: Pixar and the NSA.

What teaching should also be about

2013-07-10 | Reading time: 2 minutes

Reducing my teaching statement into one sentence shouldn't be controversial. And I still stand by it.

“Slap your adviser (and I hope, s/he slaps you back).”

2013-07-10 | Reading time: 3 minutes

You do your best in writing a peer-review and then you realize that this person should have a serious conversation with his/her adviser. A very serious one. Best bring a cattle-prod.

I’m a digital squirrel — what are you?

2013-07-05 | Reading time: 2 minutes

My animal totem is a crazed squirrel that went digital, and I love it. Seriously, an information infrastructure that not only works but works very well.

No Ads, No Sponsored Placements

A comment for those seeking to use this site for personal gain: Given the increase in requests, let me be clear. I write on this blog because I want to. It’s my hobby, my playground. Sometimes people point me to interesting products/services and I write about them. But any request regarding ads or sponsored placements ends up the trash without a reply. And if you think something would be of interest, differentiate yourself from the spammers by referring to a posting — in an intelligent way. (I get enough auto-generated mails to identify them immediately.)

BTW, posts can get updated after I published them if I spot spelling errors (not a native speaker) or think a different wording might improve precision and clarity.

Filter Blog Entries & Categories

This blog is not focused on a single topic, or method. As long as it is relevant to improving creativity (or allowing it in the first place), it's fair game. The heterogeneity of the postings can make reading this blog a bit cumbersome, at least if you are only interested in one topic. You can either use the search function (above), or use the categories or the tags to narrow down the postings you see.
