Saw this on Whidbey Island yesterday. If we hadn’t just had lunch I so would have stopped.

TweetPsych. Neat Idea

I tried out TweetPsych. It is an interesting idea but I’m not sure what the results below based on my tweets mean. It is good to see twitter analysis that goes beyond managing followers.

Cognitive Content

  1. Present tense
  2. Self reference
  3. Similes
  4. Senses
  5. Future tense
  6. Positive emotions
  7. Negative emotions
  8. Media, entertainment & celebrities
  9. Insight

Primordial, Conceptual and Emotional Content

  1. Abstract thought
  2. Visual sensations
  3. Affection
  4. Cold sensations
  5. Constructive behaviors
  6. Oral fixation
  7. Concreteness
  8. Moral imperative
  9. Order
  10. Anxiety

TweetPsych uses two linguistic analysis algorithms (RID and LIWC) to build a psychological profile of a person based on the content of their tweets.

Project Natal Demo on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (Sorry Canadians it’s Hulu)

Some mornings start off with just too much great stuff to read.

I won’t be able to read all these before Sadie finishes watching Super Why so I better write them down.

Information Aesthetics introduced me to Google Fusion Tables

The McKinsey Quarterly publishes Hal Varian on how the Web challenges managers with audio.

Kate Niederhoffer writes consistency, connectivity, and consequences

Then there is a post on the IxDA discussion list on SharePoint & Semantic Web events. A topic very near and dear to me that is massively ignored. After all good search is magic not work.  Maybe if we started calling sharepoint metadata a name like SRO (SharePoint Results Optimization) then people would care.

Now all I have to do is find the time to read these sometime today :-)

This is an interesting riff on the Windows experience. I’d like to see a hybrid of this and some of the ideas in #Bumptop.
