Wikipedia as a Printed Book - Seriously! - 0 views

  • Adam Bohannon
     
    The English edition of Wikipedia Encyclopedia contains around 3 million articles as of now and if someone were to print the entire Wikipedia encyclopedia into a book, the size of that book would roughly be equivalent to 952 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Identity_in_the_Age_of_Cloud_Computing.pdf - By Nitro PDF Software - 0 views

  • The New York Times wanted to convert 11 million articles dating

    from the newspaper's founding in 1851 through 1989 to make them
    available through its website search engine. The Times scanned in the
    stories, converted them to TIFF files, then uploaded the files to
    Amazon's S3, taking up four terabytes of space. "The Times didn't coor-
    dinate the job with Amazon--someone in IT just signed up for the ser-
    vice on the Web using a credit card," IDG News Service reported. Then,
    using Amazon's EC2 computing platform, the Times ran a PDF conver-
    sion application that converted the 4TB of TIFF data into 1.5TB of PDF
    files. Using Amazon's computers, the job took about 24 hours.

  • Meier has found that an increase in cell-phone availability increases the likelihood (at least perceived by the public) that the government might be overthrown by violent means.

      What exactly does this mean? "At least perceived by the public"? That where cell-phone availability is high, the public perceives violent anti-government protest? Or that it is *actually* more likely to happen?

we feel fine, an exploration of human emotion, in six movements - 0 views

  • Katie Hines
     
    This website was created by Jonathan Harris, and constantly searches personal blogs for "I feel..." statements.
    Click the link to see some AMAZING animations of these statements, It's the most beautiful compilation of human emotion I've ever seen, and definitely applies to my PostSecret effect research, and basic perceptions of identity.
    You can even search for these statements demographically or over long periods of time. I'm in awe!
