The Kraemenator

Look, A Picture!

 Now, how many of you stopped mindlessly scrolling through your google reader feed and stoped to read this sentence, not because of the awesome person who wrote it, but because it immediatly followed a pretty picture?

My point is, when I open up my google reader feed, and find 109 unread blog posts, I will probably not stop to read more than the first sentence of your post, unless it A) has a picture somewhere (people like to look at pictures, don’t ask me why) B) has a really interesting first line (asking a question is a good way to start) or C) Manages to convince me that your post is really interesting and thus, worthy of my time. I don’t mean to sound like a jerk when I say that, it’s just that adding media will make more people people look at your work. Also, when you have a video to share, it would be a good idea to embed it instead of just linking to it (Here’s how), and having a snazzy title doesn’t hurt either.

Just some advice… Now that I (hopefully) have your attention here is a tour of my learning centre for you, enjoy.

and an extremely epic video that I created, about Lenin. Trust me, it’s worth your time to watch.

Now, I know you’re all itching to read my bibliography, but unfortunatly it is sitting on the school server for the moment, so you’ll just have to content youself with my thank you notes.

Liam StLouis:
You helped me come up with Lenin as a person  to do this project on, have helped me develop my speech, and have provided moral support when I felt like throwing my computer out the window.

My Family:
Thank you guys all so much for sitting through the dry runs of my speech, I realize that it was significantly less awesome than my later versions. All of you helped me get from idea to finished project. Also, thank you for the lessons you gave me about how to properly shake my fist at the audience.

(a copy of an e-mail sent to) Hellen Rapport:
Thank you very much for your time and for helping me with these questions. You have no idea how much they helped me in “getting to know” Lenin, and by extention, helping me with my project. I do appologise however, as I haven’t had time to read your book as this is a rather short project and I didn’t see it in the library when I went looking for research material. Thank you for taking time out of you busy schedual to answer these questions for me, your time is greatly appreciated by me.

Thank you again,
-Nicholas K.
 
P.S. Good luck with your book

Oh, and if any of you are interested, here is my speech
