I am a ChickenBrain

After trying out blogging for a bit more than a month I decided to invest a little time into using my own domain now for the blog. It is still hosted with Google Blogger, but now to be found under http://socialea.chickenbrain.de.

 

"We know nothing at all. All our knowledge is but the knowledge of schoolchildren. The real nature of things we shall never know."

Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

 

 

The interesting (for me at least) thing about that domain is, that I found the name ChickenBrain at the age of 17 as a Character name for a Roleplay game (quite some years ago), before I explored the Internet. I quit roleplaying some years ago, but that nick kind of sticked to me. At that age I had a very good teacher for philosophy (looking back my school was really cool to offer that course, at that age I did not recognize the school to be cool). That (wise) man teached us in a good way that we do not know anything, so ChickenBrain became my pattern (and still is my main pattern).

 

I know that I know nothing and therefore I seek for answers (and will hopefully continue seeking for answers). Funny enough in one job interview (with a headhunting consultancy) I was told to not use my primary email adress kai@chickenbrain.de for sending the resume, but shall use something more professional. I was listening to the headhunting clerk and told him that I will not (and hopefully never) will be working for a company who does not value people who openly confess that they know nothing.

 

So, if there is one thing I know, than this is the message:
