My use of online interactive resource is based on a 10 year journey begun in the Spring of 1998. My use of online resource here is for self-development purposes only. I write to explore rather than to be read, which is the same principle outlined in a response on the Cluetrain Topica list in 1999. The reason this process is emergent is that I naturally think out aloud and if cyberspace is seen by some as a global brain, then this venture appears (at least for the last decade) to be a compatible one. I dislike rating and recommendation systems and any recommendations I make are solely indicating that I personally learned something and not an approval. I accept the Jiddu Krishnamurti attitude, discover "WHAT IS" yourself and stop being blind followers of others. It is important to have a good sense of humour, unless we are laughing simply to avoid misery, the connection between humour and happiness therefore is one that today appears to be broken. To connect it I believe we need to develop a good sense of our own selves, or as Socrates put it, to make an effort, to "KNOW THYSELF", my explorations online are one such personal effort.
