: Eyebee, it depends where your fruit and veg come from. Are they in season,and local or flown in from another hemisphere? Sometimes eating meat can be a better choice -like eating wild kangaroo (but only if your in Australia).Eat less full stop is better for us, and the environment!

Eyebee,

: I am currently trying to lose some weight, and eating less is the major way to tackle it. Not jsut eating less but eating more 'real' food. I've never been a fast, junk or processed food fan anyway.

We often buy local fruit and veg from roadside stalls, or the local farmers market, so yes to local and seasonal produce for the most part.

Twitter, the Smart Way
Aug 06, 2008

Submitted by Ramskill: The aim of this article is to give you more of an idea about how to use Twitter (and by association other micro-blogging services, such as Pownce or Jaiku) for following and engaging with the world's top bloggers and top websites. I call this 'Smart Twittering'. (Read More)

: Some nice twitter tips here. For some reason the video won't play for me, though. You'll probably have better luck.

Oblimov,

: The last line about adding scientific weight to the notion that broccoli might be good for you suggests that there is little evidence. Not so. There's lots of evidence to support it's value as an antioxidant, a good supplier of calcium, etc. It's a super-vege. Just a shame that the stuff in supermarkets is sprayed with nasties, and been shipped hither and thither before it reaches you.

: Sure, anything is possible. However, it's an exceptionally saturated and echo-y niche and you'll have to work that much harder to even gain a foothold, much less become 'techy famous'. Question becomes: is that going to be enjoyable? If not, why go down that road?

: Well the question that begs to be answered is, if you want that level of exposure are you willing to be "On" all the time like some of the A-listers i.e. Scoble, et. al

Reply

Oblimov,
Aug 06, 2008
: We live in a time of transition. Of course people still look to confirmation from traditional media, and will do so until there are reliable guides to content quality on the net.

Blogs as dead media | Beyond the Beyond from Wired.com
Aug 05, 2008

Submitted by Marchino: Have you noticed the blogosphere growing quiet? The pros and the a-listers and the corporate blogs are still at it as strong as ever. But tumbleweeds blow through the empty feed folders of personal friends. Flickr too is fading away. Maybe it’s just summer and we’re all outdoors, as we should be, instead. (Read More)

: The "X is dead" trend is one of the worst things about the whole 2.0 phenomenon, just behind "Y is the next Z killer". If all you do is blog about blogging, of course you're going to peter out. It's not rocket science, people!

: the "X is dead" trend, in the web, runs at the speed of light, but it doesn't mean it's true :)

: Maybe the ostriches are being forced to pull their heads from the sand of inane media and go out and actually do something - instead of the endless blithering of those vain enough to think others should listen to them!
