Laughter is like composing Haiku or taking pictures. When you think of a scene in front of you in order to write a poem or think about how to compose a shot, you are deeply engaged with where you are at. You are seeing things beyond the surface, finding relationships, comparing, contrasting, creating meaning. Laughter is like that between people.

Gardening has the same effect for deepening my awareness with the seasons. I never paid close attention to the weather before. Hot cold etc sure, but when you worry about growing things you start paying a lot more intimate attention to frost wind sun seasons how things root and grow. Composting similarily links eating to growing to how things work together. Understanding is so relational. Those relations need to be established for wisdom to evolve

Another magical lens is a mathematician looking for symmetry in the world. Once you start looking for symmetry it's everywhere and deeply connects form across all things.

I talked with a woman today who collects sea glass (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...) by the sea. I was captivated as she explained how searching for glinty bits of glass in the surf transformed her and her families experience of the beach. She loves walking the beach looking for glass and collecting it. Her friend makes art work out of it, but she just puts it in a jar she bought...

A man I talked with told me how he like making up stories of the people he sees. He would look closely at a person I try to see if they were sad, happy, angry, impatient, blank, or whatever and then make up a story of why they might be feeling that way. It requires a lot of emotional intelligence and imagination to carry this out.

Numeracy. By that I mean seeing things as described by numbers. It's a very different way of seeing the world. My first exposure to this way of relating to the world were stories about John von Neumann. It's certainly not how I see the world or anyone I knew at the time. The story I remember most is him looking at bicycle wheel and characterizing by numbers. He immediately signed...

Competition. This one is from Adam Savage. He sees deadlines and competition as a way to engage at a deeper level with his work. It's the pressure that creates a flow where he's solving problems and paying the most attention to what he's doing.
- Todd Hoff
Entrepreneur. There's a type of person that sees every situation as a new business that could be created. Viewing the world this way can be exciting. It makes you inquisitive, sensitive to relationships, and fundamentally optimistic. The downside is the potential to see everything as a means instead of end.
- Todd Hoff
Ritual.
- Todd Hoff
Wine Tasting. It's especially fun in a group to go to a winery, look at the vines, hear the wine makers story, and try and find different flavors in the wine that backup what you've just experienced. A wine club deepens the experience a bit more. Buying futures, tasting the wine in the barrel and different points, then on release, then each year after deepens the experience even more. Food tasting in general would be similar I think.
- Todd Hoff
Wish lists. Lisa Bettany on Leo's show was rhapsodising about the process of picking her ultimate camera rig. It obviously gave her a lot of pleasure to think about all the different options, roll that about in her mind, imagine what it would be like, and come up with a final list. We something similar on the Internet with question like What is your favorite X? These are often surprisingly spirited and introspective discussions. Maybe related to window shopping.
- Todd Hoff
Trip joke. This is from a sailor who says on every trip to sea there develops a trip joke. It gets hammered into the deck and gets funnier as the days pass by. The funny thing, beside the joke, is the joke doesn't make any sense to the people who weren't there. It can't be explained. You had to be there in the experience. I think shared experiences are like that. People share something that can't be explained yet it is as real as rain.
- Todd Hoff
Naming. This from A Very Small Farm by William Winchester. In his book he is very precise with names. He doesn't just say there was a hawk sitting on a tree. He tells you exactly what kind of hawk, some characteristics of those hawks, and the quality of his interaction with them. He tells you precisely what kind of chicken, cow, or plant he is talking about. This seems to really deepen...

Breeding. Also from A Very Small Farm but also from people I know who breed dogs. In Williams case it delighted in producing new breeds of seeds that improved on what went before and fit is little ecosystem better. Dog breeders are often crazy intense about producing certain qualities and their dogs and spend infinite amounts of time evaluating breeding lines, looking at dogs,...

Picking seeds in winter for next summer's garden. People deeply enjoy this. Planning, browsing through catalogues, imagining how the plants will grow, what they'll look like, how they will taste.

Watching children play.

"When you watch your kid doing something you taught him, that's just not a feeling you get from purchasing a new iPad. When you sit in structure you built or use a product you built you'll know the feeling. It's hard to explain but in the end, it's worth it."
- Todd Hoff
Historical context & history. Knowing the history of something makes it mean more than it ever has before. It gives it layers of meaning and nuance that go way beyond a simple definition. Understanding the history of a word like brazen, for example, makes it so much more interesting. I image a definition of god as a being for whom all histories are known, so everything has ultimate meaning.
- Todd Hoff
Deep dive. I was listening to these guys who are really into chillies. They grow all sorts of varieties. They had opinions on all sorts of obscure aspects of chili lore. Thy delighted in talking about how to grow them, get the seeds, cook them, dry them, preserve them, how long different kinds took took to germinate, how some tasted better dried and smoked. And on and on. It was obvious about how knowing everything about chillies gave them a great deal of pleasure.

Teasing. Playful teasing between willing participants carves out a special even sacred space, walled off from the mundane world.

Parody. In an interview with one of the homer simpsons writers he said they were always looking around for things to parody on the show. I imagine that must give you an interesting relationship with everything around you!

Walk slowly around your neighborhood and back alleys looking for where food grows in public spaces. Most people walk quickly where they need to go totally ignoring the area around their own home.

Esoterica. There are esoteric views for almost everything, gnosticism, kabbalah, hermeticism, alchemy, where people try to find the deeper meaning behind the surface in a way that is deeply personal. Moses just didn't get the 10 commandments, for example, he also received esoteric knowledge that is passed down orally for those who are prepared and worthy to receive it. Is this true? Who...

Naming things. Recognizing plant names. I suck at this. But the guys at rootsimple.com talked about walking around the neighborhood and everything is just a sea of green. Once you start learning the names of things then you start seeing familiar things all around you and it deepens your relationship. Maybe you've walked with people who know the name of everything and enjoy looking at leaves and figuring out what kind of tree or plant it is. Same with bird watching. And human watching while shopping.
- Todd Hoff
Shared experience. Experience something with other people dramatically changes what you are experiencing.
- Todd Hoff
gamification. Adding an extra layer of points, leveling up, challenges, groups tasks, etc to everything we do has the potential to charge and enrich otherwise mundane life. Or it can trivialize it even further.

Acquisition. Viewing something with an eye towards purchasing it is a totally different experience from a casual interaction. All those little details that didn't matter before are now near deal breakers and indignities.

Form. A poetry form like the villanelle, sonnet, haiku is restrictive, but by making you search for the right sound and and the right meaning to complete the form, a special vibrant place of possibilities is create that would not exist without the requirement of form.

Oculus. An oculus defines a sacred space between this world and the world of spirit. It's a portal between the worlds. When you see one your mind is transported to other worlds outside the typical.

Memory. I forget why. Oh, because everything becomes faceted with memory. Everyone can look at exactly the same scene and have a completely different experience because each person has a different set of memories. We don't live in the same world at all when you consider the power of memory. Memory is a tyrant, a box, a task master, a prison, a heaven, a torturer, a courtesan.
- Todd Hoff
Hemingway on Memory: "There is never any ending to Paris and the memory of each person who has lived in it differs from that of any other." (http://www.chicagotribune.com/news...)

sympathy. Yeats wrote about how the shared experience of sympathy bound together he and his lady love. Shared experiences and sentiments roughen usually hard, glassy, repulsive surfaces so that a spiritual glue can be applied, making unlike things as one.
- Todd Hoff
Style. Style creates a sort of sacred space where they stylish person separates themselves out from the unstylish. Tattoos, military garb, athletic uniforms, branded tshirts, religious garb, musical style, dance style, all serve the purpose of separation and enchantment.
- Todd Hoff
Game player type: explorer, socializer, killer, achiever. Each player type creates a different type of game space. Most people in the world the world are not out to achieve anything. They would like to earn achievements, but don’t care much to achieve.
- Todd Hoff
Echoes. Related to memories and trip jokes. But echoes are the piling up waves offset in time. So it's like rhyme in a poem, the poet setting up the rhyme for you to experience later. Repetition in music and stories. Old pictures. Snatches of memories of what has been seen, heard, experienced. All those in an echo are in a different place.
- Todd Hoff
Aftershock. A combination of memory and echo. When an after shock occurs, both actual and metaphorical, there's a space of simultaneity created where the fear of the past event rushes back to the present and infects the future. Each aftershock thereafter participates in the effect of all the previous aftershocks so all the pain a dread piles up like a compression wave. A truly powerful effect.

Provenance. This one is inspired by Paul Bloom and How Pleasure Works. He talks a lot about essentialism. If the Mona Lisa were duplicated exactly we would still like the original better.

Manipulation. From the Huntress...Paul McClure walked me through how the pro's get the emotion in their shots. They take five or six bracketed frames at different exposures of the same shot and then overlap them in a photoshop type program.

Filters. You know when on TV they light up a building with infrared and all of sudden you can see these little glowing lights that are people? In the forest a heavy dew is like that for spider webs. Spider webs are nearly invisible. Look at a patch of forest and there's nothing. Then have a heavy morning dew, it lights up that patch of forest and spider webs are everywhere....

"very high in calories..." Just to be evil, I tried to calculate that. Can't: Unclear how much chocolate it takes to make a cup of chunks. 4 oz? 8 oz? (Probably somewhere in between.)

"Every so often you cross roads with people that have undoubtably been born with a gift. Swedish Linnea Jacobson is one of those people. In mid March this year Linnea, 13(!) years of age at the time, contacted me and asked if she could shoot something for Ben Trovato. True enough, Ben Trovato is and has always been about promoting the up and coming, but we have never before worked with anyone of that age before."

"Linnea says this about her story: “- I wanted to try something new and started thinking of a shoot inspired by the royal, and chicness, and it became some sort of royal chicness. Photography wise the shoot is inspired by Camilla Åkrans, and her many indoor shoots. I got help from Kii.se to pick out some dresses that would match with the chicness and it all came out lovely I think. Not completely my style of photography, but I find it so fun trying new styles.”"

I reject the "political compass" on the grounds that it comes from a very right-libertarian view of the world and is fairly incompatible with my view of the world. (I actually came to this from a libertarian explaining the weakness of the Nolan chart.)

I think it's useful for visualizing the possibilities that lie outside of mainstream American politics, which is almost entirely in the upper right quadrant. The quiz that underlies it, though, is very flawed.
- John (bird whisperer)
Well, that quiz2d link I shared explains some of my problems with the Nolan chart, but this Political Compass one, left-right vs authoritarian-libertarian really doesn't define left or right /at all/, and IMO those terms are more nebulous than authoritarian or libertarian, so... I find either of the popular forms pretty lacking.

I think my wife would be pretty upset if I dated anyone younger than me (or anyone else, for that matter) :) Seriously, though, I very rarely dated anyone younger than me; I always went for women 1-5 years older than me.

For the record, Rochelle is 9 years younger than I am. The older I get, the younger my girlfriends have gotten. I rock it like that.

Akiva, based on that, 25 is the low end of my range: not a chance I'd be comfortable with that. But I'd say...5 years younger to 8-10 years older.

If I ever started dating again it would mean my wife finally got tired of me. I would be looking for my midlife crisis trophy wife. She would have to be 20 years younger than me.

Do you think it's different for a man to date a younger woman than a woman to do the same?
- Shevonne
4-6 years.
- Steven Perez
Shawn is over 3 years younger than me. I think that's probably the most I could do - even with that age difference we lose a lot of generational references. But I am immature for my age (in many ways), he's mature for his (in many ways), so I think we meet in the middle mostly in that respect. I got teased pretty mercilessly when we were dating, but we were 16 and 19 when we met/17 and 20 when we were dating. I don't know that a guy would've been teased the way I was.
- Lix
I am 5 years older than husband...at the time we dated I had to endure all if the Stella got her groove back comments so I wouldn't go younger than that
- furrworld
I think they are the same. Older guy w/ younger woman is pretty darn common worldwide. But with the tables turning in recent years, resulting in Sugar Mama's, Cougars, Girl Power and all the things that should have been around from the beginning, it's pretty much normal to have the Older Woman, younger man combo show up. And on a personal note - When you buy a dog, you usually buy a puppy....

I've never had an age limitation, never thought it necessary given a lot more important things. My wife is 15 years younger than I, and age had nothing to do with why we chose each other.

Age of adults is relevant only in that it very loosely correlates to emotional and intellectual maturity. Other than that, the only considerations I can see are whether one partner is likely to die well before the other, or whether one parent would be infirm while kids are still needing guidance.

No more than 10 yrs. my junior...
- JA Castillo
@LogEx I used to think like you do; however, after being married to a much older woman, I find that unless you're both after the same life goals, you're going to have problems. Unfortunately, I wouldn't advise people to date or marry more than a certain number of years apart, regardless of emotional or intellectual maturity.
- Bubba Botts
Maybe a couple of years. Was only involved with someone younger once, hadn't really noticed until today.

I found a super-sweet guy, who just happened to be 13.5 years younger than me. Emotionally and mentally we meet in the middle, as soneone else said I also tend to be a bit immature at times for my age, and he tends to be a bit more mature, so it works out nicely. Lots of folks have called me a cougar, but my husband just calls me kitty. :D Age wasn't a criteria for us, but life goals, values, and goofiness levels were. Turns out, we're pretty much made for each other. I was just made a bit earlier.
- Bette Cooper
Three or four. Close enough, I think, in maturity levels. Don't wanna be a momma. Don't need a daddy.

I used to think about three years younger. Then I met this incredible woman who was 23 when I was 28 and I let myself talk me out of it and I've been kicking myself ever since. So I guess the lesson is: five!

Isn't everyone doing it? FriendFeed will never get the credit it deserves.
- Rah-PM 2012
from Android
Well, look at how Google implemented their new 'block sites' feature - it's essentially a watered down version of the Hide feature here, even down to the placement of messaging and interaction design. [edit] Screenshots of both make it pretty clear that they took the idea from FriendFeed. And that's just fine really, I like the feature.
- AJ Kohn
OK I get it now, yup, everyone's doing it, most obvious of course is Face(Feed)Book & the Home Feed: Most Popular/Most Recent, then there's Twitter, Buzz, however this is the first I can recall hearing regarding search engine results, interesting, and yeah good feature
- The Real sofarsoShawn
Yes, Facebook is trying to morph into FriendFeed but it's a sloooooow process. Buzz was almost a complete homage to FriendFeed. But ... seeing this in search was a bit surprising. A good surprise mind you. [edit] So perhaps I'll mention the cribbing in my blog post but not make it the central theme.
- AJ Kohn
I want Google to love FriendFeed, if they couldn't just acquire it, be inspired by it is very cool to me.. I talked recently about the FriendFeedization on Facebook, and it is maybe around the corner. Not that they haven't tried in previous years with the bottom-left notification to replace a moving interactive wall, or tried 3-4 times with the post comments updating in real-time....

- Zu from AOD
Yes, I have the sense that Google may regret not scooping up FriendFeed. I agree that Facebook's A/B testing has seemed like a way to soften up a rather rigid user base. I think the recent Facebook EdgeRank update that only shows news feed items from those you interact with the most is a lazy way to create FriendFeed's curated home feed. Bret and the rest of the FriendFeed team have done a lot for Facebook, enough that I don't run screaming from it every time I visit. But it's still no FriendFeed.
- AJ Kohn
So true on the EdgeRank! It was at that point of time I remember even in direct reverse chronological order, really obvious to the analyzing eye from day to day. Which creates issues when having a lot of people friended, that you will actually tend to think less about them because they won't appear, because you haven't made a move yet, which is essential for it to be the intended user experience for someone who would go in less steps.
- Zu from AOD
Facebook has a long way to go if it's going to be like Friendfeed. The recent change to show photos/images in an overlay rather than on a click through to the photo's page (I don't know how I always end up invoke this, but it's kind of annoying, since I open up items on separate tabs and the click often opens it up in an overlay) is unlike Friendfeed. That there's specific UI to upload...
