Manufacturology turns one year

Man­u­fac­tur­ol­ogy turns one year today. Dur­ing that time I’ve had 13000 page views, which trans­lates to some­what fewer indi­vid­ual vis­i­tors since some view mul­ti­ple pages. My first post, which was sim­ply called Wel­come, was pub­lished on Jan­u­ary 13 2010. When I started out I had the idea and ambi­tion to focus solely on pro­duc­tion research. As […]

10000 page views on Manufacturology

This blog recorded its 10000’th page view last week. The num­ber of indi­vid­ual vis­i­tors is slightly lower as some peo­ple view many pages dur­ing one visit.  How­ever, most of the traf­fic here on Man­u­fac­tur­ol­ogy is from search engines, and most vis­i­tors only view one page — their ‘land­ing page’. There­fore, I believe that the actual […]

I write like — Arthur C Clarke?

I’m proud to announce that the lit­er­ary qual­ity of this blog allegedly meets the high­est pos­si­ble stan­dards. When I applied the sta­tis­ti­cal text analy­sis tool found at “I Write Like” on some of the most read posts on Man­u­fac­tur­ol­ogy over the last 24 hours, I was told that my writ­ing resem­bles that of Arthur C […]

Can blogging boost your research career?

Man­u­fac­tur­ol­ogy turned two months. For me, becom­ing a blog­ger also meant that I had to learn to become a blog reader. Yes, I did visit a cou­ple of blogs occa­sion­ally before I started my own, but none in my own field of exper­tise. Now sud­denly I realised that I must keep up with what others […]

Manufacturology

It’s really hard to come up with good names. Whether it is a project, a new con­cept or a blog. I tried all sorts of com­bi­na­tions on pro­duc­tion, strat­egy, man­u­fac­tur­ing and oper­a­tions. Then I vis­ited Mar­tin Rund­kvists emi­nent archae­ol­ogy blog called Aard­var­chae­ol­ogy. I envied his witty blog title and tried dif­fer­ent “olo­gies” in com­bi­na­tion with […]
