Write a great research paper

Hi,

I got a hint about a good youtube video about Professor Simon Peyton Jones, Microsoft Research:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3dkRsTqdDA

It is about 7 tips of how to write a good research paper (but there are about a hundred more in the video inside of the hints):

- #1 Don't wait: write 0:21
- #2 Identify your key idea 4:16
- #3 Tell a story 7:20
- #4 Nail your contributions to the mast 9:34
- #5 Related work 16:44
- #6 Put your readers first 23:50
- #7 Listen to your readers 28:42

I would highly recommend that video ...

kind regards,
Daniel

source code beautifier hilite.me

Hi,

today, I found (or unfortunately it is already yesterday) a cool web-page that renders inserted source code to html code as highlighted content. It is a very simple solution to paste code e.g.: to blogger ... (I already used it in my last post.) ... for me it worked perfectly, because it supports the code-languages I use and multiple themes like e.g.: Visual Studio theme.

page-description:

hilite.me converts your code snippets into pretty-printed HTML format, easily embeddable into blog posts, emails and websites.

Just copy the source code to the left pane, select the language and the color scheme, and click "Highlight!". The HTML from the right pane can now be pasted to your blog or email, no external CSS or Javascript files are required.
