coffee_bean_singleI’m not a coffee drinker, but I’ve been around enough coffee drinkers (especially living in Portland) to know that people are a lot happier after their morning cup of joe.  For many people coffee is a necessity for survival, but a new study out of the University of Bristol found that the energy boosting effects of coffee might just be in your head.

In this study subjects were given either a caffeine pill or a placebo and their alertness was measured through computer testing.  The results of the testing showed that caffeine did not improve the alertness of the subjects who took the caffeine pill.

The take home message from this study was that People who drink coffee experience an acute caffeine withdraw fatigue that makes them more tired and require coffee to return back to normal. Read Full Article on Compass Chiropractic

Have a Blog? Make Sure Your RSS Feed is Useful

Internet & Social Media - Business Blogging
Thursday, 24 June 2010 08:22
If you have a blog, 1/3 of the functionality is its ability to handle RSS feeds (syndicated news feeds). RSS is a vital part of the blog ecosystem, and if you are neglecting it, you are giving up 30-50% of the return on investment you should be expecting from your blog. Isn’t RSS automatic?

Blogging? Seriously? How is blogging any more socially isolating than just plain old writing? Writing a book, writing in your journal, writing a short story, writing a poem. Yes, these are all socially isolating in and of themselves, but what makes blogging soooo much different from every other form of writing?

(Hint: it doesn’t. It’s only believed to be a problem by people who don’t fully understand that blogging is just one more form of publishing.)
