DataMining Live Journals


Basically, If I take the live journals of all 40k users on this system, and analyze its content, won’t I get a pretty vast knowledge base on human behavior? Now there’s an idea ๐Ÿ™‚

  1. i think the view you’d get would be pretty narrow and not equally spread. just by hitting random you can see for yourself that: 1) most people on here are of higher intelligence than a majority of the population and 2) a lot of people on here are really depressed and all gloomy and 2.5) it takes a certain kind of person to be a “journaler”

    okay, enough bull-caca from me.

    • I beg to differ

      I think that human nature is the same with all people. No matter how smart you are. Einstein had the same feelings we all have, hate, love, envy, longing, happiness…

      I would not want to look for who is richer, and what is the average age… what I would want to research, is personality traits, behaviors in light of various sittuations, and so on. That’s where the gravy is. Ultimately, leading to some kind of a manual to human nature ๐Ÿ™‚

      Or maybe just some personal and instinctive perceptions and tiny rules of my own about people, to get the feel of humanity, the biomass…

      But then again maybe it’s all rubbish ๐Ÿ™‚
