Blog Entries for Practical Perception

Although maintained on a computer or some other on-line system, blogs are a lot like diaries. They provide a place for the writer to record his/her thoughts on a variety of daily experiences. They may also serve as a means to distribute current ideas or discoveries of fact. They can allow an author to speculate about topics that fall within a specific domain of interest. (For example, one person's blog domain might be traffic problems and/or highway plans for a city or state. Another person might be concerned with recently discovered species of insect or interesting "insectoid-y" facts.)

The blog associated with practical perception.org has a domain that includes a range of topics in perception – human or otherwise – as well as research concepts and measurement techniques. Relevant personal experiences, or speculations about research ideas, might also be included. With respect to such speculations, the primary author/guide of this website welcomes anyone who finds an item interesting to take such ideas and use them as the start of her/his own research. (All he asks is that some suitable recognition – a footnote or similar acknowledgement would be fine – be included in any resulting written thesis, dissertation, publication or other dissemination, including additional websites.)
