Articles I’ve Liked This Month
Posted on | | No Comments
Bit of an odd selection of articles I’ve been reading this month. There’s a couple of interesting football articles. The Moneyball idea being applied to football was pretty interesting. The stat about Maldini only making one tackle every two games makes you realise just how good the guy was. The article about the general rubbishness of Bing was interesting too. Michael Martinez regularly writes interesting content. Take a look at his archives. I also really liked the Raymond Carver article. I didn’t realise just how important Carver’s editor was to his writing process. I love Carver’s short stories, but after reading the article, it’s clear that you have to regard the work as a collaboration between great minds rather than one man’s genius. Here’s the list:
