more or less

Well thats at least four recipes done for Cathy at Centacare , just posted one on Tastebuds  hopefully I should be able to get all of them up, not on the same day of course you don't want them all at once and besides Dana's Indian Taco's is already there.
Cathy wanted some easy stuff for teens who haven't ever cooked .. they can use a phone but not a stove apparently.
Me I can cook because you can't eat a phone.

Lets see what else is new? I'm going to be getting a new desk soon ... soon err yeah well soon hopefully
this will be my last spend, ain't spending any more coin on anything bigger than groceries and bills.
Must have a new desk though this one oh gawd I think its as old as I am, got a piece of wood stuck on the front for the keyboard another loose one over the top drawer or I'd have a gap things would fall off.
Been leaving the desk because well its got a pooter on it hasn't it and well can't be without pooter now can we.
It was alright being without a lounge chair because the shop had to order a two seater in and I had to wait 3 months for it, that was ok but I ain't going without computer for three months the house would be spotless can't have that.

I got bored with Twitter you know, it was ok early on before every man and the dog and the dogs dog had it, now its blah 
Kinda miss blogging a bit but its hard to write now, lost it you know the incentive to write about anything 
lost 360 and then Multiply, so end up on Facebook playing games, so I add all these people who play games   and actual relatives and people I know in real life who either post stuff thats so boring it hurts or so cryptic that you've no idea what they are on about, only you can't ask or you'll look stupid which is the point of course they want you to look as dumb as they think you are.
You know I can post up a photo of a flower and get more likes on Facebook than something profound, maybe I should share someone elses photo of a flower with something profound written on it rather than taking my own, clear professional looking photos that I've taken myself.
You know I got told that my photos were boring ok maybe they are but at least I can use a camera a proper camera not some blurry sideways mobile phone photo

This is one of mine, the rest that I've uploaded to G plus spose you want a link? go here to see

Social Network Math

Social networks and groups involve math?
Yes they do
Proportions it all comes down to proportions, the more members you have the more items get posted and I'm talking activity count here by the way.

Works anywhere, you have a group with 100 members only %10 of the members actually do anything they are the active ones the rest are lurkers they don't do anything just read
The ones that post comments or new posts is only %10, that's what (I failed math at school) ...it's 10 which means you need at least 100 in your group, circle what ever you have to get any more than 10 comments per post unless someone double dips, always one who does so we don't count those as 2 only 1
Count by person ok not how many

Count goes up proportionally to the amount you have on your group so say on Twitter you have 500 followers unless you've got some who are very active you'll only get 50 @replies and messages (by person remember)

Or say you have a Blogger or a Wordpress that's got 1000 readers, you'll get 100 replies day
Unfortunately it never does work by post ratio but by day that 100 comment on different posts

Course if you join up on a big fat group on a social network one that's got over 10,000 members ... come on your math is better than mine how many comments and posts is that per day? 1000
Sounds great right get a lot of feedback and activity , no see it backfires
The more active members the more idiots you get you have 1000 active members you'll have at least 10 idiots/flooders and spammers sorry but that's social network math

and this is why here I only ever get 1 or 2 comments as only 20 something people subscribe/read (possibly just subscribe and don't read) this blog
