Given existing demands on health , wealth and time- I am planning to blog every Friday at the minimum and also send a summary on the Linkedin Group.
Here are some ways to better connect to my writing-
1 Join the LinkedIn Group http://www.linkedin.com/groups?about=&gid=54257
2 Follow on Twitter http://twitter.com/decisionstats
3 Interact on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/Decisionstats
I will also be trying to find better ways to optimize my writing soon. Thanks for reading this!
That’s what I use twitter for. If you have a twitter account you can follow me here

A couple of weeks ago I accidentally deleted many followers using a Twitter App called Refollow- I was trying to clean up people I follow and checked the wrong tick box-
so please if you feel I unfollowed you- it was a mistake. Seriously.

On Cloud Computing- and Google- rumours ( 🙂 ) are emerging that Google’s push for cloud computing is to turn desktop computing to IBM like mainframe computing . Except that there are too many players this time. Where is the Department of Justice and anti trust – does Amazon qualify for being too big in cloud computing currently.
Or the rumours could be spread by Microsoft/ Apple / Amazon competitors etc. Geeks are like that sometimes.
WordPress.com stats is quite nice and easy for blogger to maintain as there are no plugins etc and most importantly the system ignores your own logins and spurious traffic from web spiders or crawlers.
So while the daily average for the site is 140 views ( or ~100 unque people) if added to 600 in daily newsletter (or around 200 reads) that’s almost a readership of 300 per day. No wonder my old 13 dollars a month server could not cope up.
If you have a blog and use wordpress, wordpress.com is thus both a cheaper as well as more traffic generating option.
I love the Facebook.com stats for the FB page though – the segmentations are quite neat while interactions do have a chance to spill into personal networking between people of common interests.
