I\u2019m not a huge fan of blogs &#8211; most people don\u2019t have enough interesting and important things to say to warrant publishing what amounts to a one-man (or one-woman) newsletter. Also, most people don\u2019t have the wisdom or experience to have their opinions carry that much weight. Now that\u2019s not to say that their opinions shouldn\u2019t count, it\u2019s just that posting them publicly on a blog, does not, in and of itself, make them worth more than anyone else\u2019s opinion. The weight of one\u2019s opinion is an earned value.<\/p>\n<p>However, I do find it useful to have a place to collect ideas and thoughts for potential later use. So that\u2019s why this one is here. It is public because the things I collect may be useful to others and I\u2019m all for sharing.<\/p>\n<p>If you wish to find out more about me and what I do, try my Main Website Link: <a title=\"http:\/\/www.minkhollow.ca\/becker\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.minkhollow.ca\/becker\">Homepage of Katrin Becker<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you wish to learn more about my Research and PhD Thesis, try this Wiki: <a title=\"thesis:main\" href=\"http:\/\/www.minkhollow.ca\/Thesis07\/doku.php?id=thesis:main\">Thesis Wiki<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/p>\n<div class='wp_likes' id='wp_likes_post-5'><a class='like' href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(5);\" title='Like' ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/minkhollow.ca\/beckerblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-likes\/images\/like.png\" alt='' border='0'\/><\/a><span class='text'><b>2<\/b> people like this post.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class='like' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(5);\">Like<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='unlike' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.unlike(5);\">Unlike<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to the Becker Blog.
