Using Peer Pressure to Your Benefit
Wednesday 6 April in Everyday, Technology by Funtime Ben!(left photo)http://www.upthetree.com/wp-uploads/charts.png(chart)!:http://a.wholelottanothing.org/fitlog/ At “A Whole Lotta Nothing”:http://a.wholelottanothing.org/ there is a great little article and link “Using peer pressure to your benefit”:http://a.wholelottanothing.org/2005/04/using_peer_pres.html whereby the author plans to harness the peer-pressure of blogging to “loose wieght.”:http://a.wholelottanothing.org/fitlog/ Albeit a seemingly innocuous use of the blogging community, it marks a real breakthrough in harnessing the _power of the blog._ The coolest part about the whole thing is that using WordPress’ custom fields a custom graph is created automatically thanks to a very neat little chart add on called “PHP/SWF Charts.”:http://www.maani.us/charts/index.php
This sort of idea could definitely be harnessed for events like the _Aids Walk_ or _Race for the Cure._ It could of course also be used for my fat ass.
