As some of you know, every month (or so) I send out a digest of the latest memory research I've come across, along with news of changes and additions I've made to the website. What is not, of course, evident, is the many interesting articles, websites, items of various descriptions, that I come across, and dump in my files. I know they're interesting, not only to me, but I don't have the time to immediately write them up in an article or set up a new page to incorporate these links, and so ... they go into the "I must do something about these someday" piles.
Well, the answer is pretty obvious, and it's finally come to me: a blog.
The content of the blog will reflect my website, of course: information about memory that helps you achieve permanent memory improvement. Admittedly, I take this further than is probably strictly necessary, on the grounds that, hey, who's not interested in how their memory works? Even if it's not of immediate practical value.
It also wanders into education, and information management, because that's what it's all about, isn't it? We need to improve our memory because we're being deluged by information. Filing techniques are just as valid a mnemonic strategy as, say, remembering which is your left hand by holding it up and seeing it makes an L (yes, I'm left-right challenged).
Feel free to send me any links you come across that you think other people might be interested in, as long as you realise I might be scathing about it, or ignore it completely. Remember that I take an academic stance, and I tend to cast a sceptical eye over techniques and advice that is not backed up by (good) research.
