Pt2 Coming Soon.

Words

Words, words, words.

They are mainly a tool for communication. But like everything else we have, we like to play around with these tools.

Along with grammar we can arrange them in standard structures, using the smallest set of rules to be able to articulate anything.

We have adapted these to be able to speak, write and often mime these words. New ones are added, meanings can change and some rarely get used.

We use these to organise our thoughts, share ideas, entertain and resolve conflict. It empowers us to collaborate with people over vast distances on land and in time.

They can have natural rhythm.
They can be set to music.
They can be used in games.
They can be twisted, distorted, used out of context, humorous, spiteful, diverse, repetitive, monotonous, insightful, enlightening, long winded, poetic, tender, constructive and destructive or any combination.

Their are Things you'll not does m8 : as it could well b ta thang witch pissess men of. :p But we can still understand. And if tolerant will get the gist of even the worst written text. If we find it interesting.

With many different words in many different languages and an equal amount of ways of expressing them. Some words mean different things in different languages or different regions where the same language is spoken. Others are as diverse as you can imagine.

Words are triggers for your imagination.

You are what you read.

Defined by your words.

Hope you enjoyed.

My words.

Bye.

What people don't say about adverts

My attempt.

Book extract No 1

The first ships came a very long time ago, in astronomical terms not long after the solar system formed. These were ships who's task it was to map, study and observe the system. They sent streams of data out into the galaxy preparing for the next stage.

By the time the data had been received processed and acted upon the solar system was starting to settle down.

When the fleet of ships in the second wave reached the system the data coming from the original ships had provided all the data needed to fairly accurately predict the whole life of this young system.

The problem with smart phones and apps

We are well and truly in the computer era now. An ever growing number of people now have phones which are more powerful than the standard desktop computer of say 10 years ago. Maybe not quite in raw horse power, but certainly in the things it can do and how quickly it can do them.

But it has radically changed how we use computerized phones to. This is because copyright holders, publishers and website owners have learnt a thing or two over the early internet/ computer years. The two things that spearheaded the internet Adobe's pdf format and the browser were a mixed blessing for some... Even though the thing they hate is what helped make them popular, its the ability to copy and paste.

Although there are tricks to disable it in browsers and pdfs, most don't use these tools because they are easy to circumvent and people don't like them. Although in the new ecosystem of phones and apps copy & paste is not quite as easy. So quite a lot of the information on these phones is nicely locked away making it hard to copy that phone number into a text or email, impossible to quote something from that 'social' app or that app from your favorite website or publication.

The ironic thing is most of this information is still available in the browser where you can copy it, it's only in the dedicated branded app that you can't.

I guess it's driven by some ego maniac who wants to protect their intellectual property or an over xellos marketing department believing it will make more 'hits' or advert views.

But people like to share and you often don't want to share the whole thing. Imagine if every time you wanted to post a Shakespeare quote you could only post a link to the book and say look at page 143 line 8. Well apps are trying to do the same giving you the easy option to share the whole thing (along with the adverts) but not to easily pull out that relevant single line.

Now I know it's not a big thing, but in a world where the new currency is advertising and patents it could get worse.

Freedom for data, always...
