People finding a paper of mine
I have an account on Academia.edu - the professional networking site for academics (http://newcastle-au.academia.edu/MichaelMeany). Recently, over the past month or so, I've been getting a number of notifications saying that people from all over the world have been finding my work - usually through Google searches.
In particular, the paper that has been attracting the most interest is one I delivered at a conference in 2007 titled 'Humour, Anxiety, and Csikszentmihalyi's concept of Flow'. ( http://www.inter-disciplinary.net/ati/education/cp/ce3/meany%20paper.pdf )
I'm certainly not saying this is the academic must-read of the season, however, it does suggest that the title of this paper, if nothing else, has struck a chord in the zeitgeist. The combination of humour theory and creativity theory looks to be a rich field.
