Why don't you give us some of the special links you have found.  I think posters here should start doing that.  People can then make up their own mind as to how reliable certain names on vlogging are.   Randolfe (Randy) Wicker   Videographer, Writer, Activist Advisor: The Immortality Institute Hoboken, NJ http://www.randywickerreporting.blogspot.com/ 201-656-3280     ----- Original Message ----- From: Markus Sandy To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2005 11:31 AM Subject: Re: [videoblogging] Re: Spirit can not be spoken for Michael Sullivan wrote: > > I believe in random listing of vlogs more so than any other algorithm, > and I am aware that even randoms are imperfect. > So, i disagree that you *have* to sort by something. good point! I have found more fun new vlogs randomly through Ro's (aka firehttp) videoblogging-universe ring video thumb clips than from any directory search of course, his ring is based on a directory - but the way they are presented to me is in fact randomly Interesting aside: you can mathematically justify that the best way to optimize many sorting operations is to *first* randomly shuffle the data.  This is because "real world" data is often "skewed" or "clumped" in ways that increase the need for comparisons.   Maybe this applies to wetware too. markus -- My name is Markus Sandy and I am app.etitio.us http://apperceptions.org http://digitaldojo.blogspot.com http://spinflow.org http://wearethemedia.com http://www.corante.com/events/feedfest/ aim/ichat: [EMAIL PROTECTED] msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: msandy spin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] YAHOO!
