The Law of Blog Comments

February 20th, 2006

Here is an interesting Law for Blog Comments as described at gr.yet.anotherblog.net. Since the law is expressed in Greek, I will try to translate:

As the number of comments N to a (blog) post increases, the possibility that the subset of comments C (where C are all comments that refer to the fact that the number N increases) is not null tends to be 1.
It should be noted that the density of the probability function is localy higher before and after “phycological limits” such as 50, 100, 200 comments, etc.

Amazing.. So true!

Please refer to this law as “The Lazopolis Law for Comments” (that’s how he calls it, I guess it is fair to respect it.)

Videos, and media distribution

February 17th, 2006

So, I read this: » British Show Footballers Wive$ Premieres On Google Video. Sounds interesting.

Let’s check it out: Noop. Google Video informs me that “This video is not playable in your country”. Fuck! Did they ask me to pay and I said no? No. It’s just that my IP is in Greece. I hope this is not Google’s policy, it could be BBC’s, or the copyright holder of the video.

Who cares? Long live the torrentz…

Google index size increased?

February 16th, 2006

I just noticed on g-metrics.com that most queries (with more than 100,000 results) displayed a significant jump (some by more than 100%). Is this a sign that Google added more pages to their index?

(highly speculative:) Is it possible that they integrated some other kind of “media” like feeds that they used to show only in blogsearch.google.com to the main search?
