One of the followers of this blog called my attention to a useful web site that has a list of 100 things you can do to facilitate memory. Several items deal with remembering names, and others with remembering numbers and lists. Much of this information is also in my book.
I have some quibbles with some of the material, such as recommended foods. The hoopla over gingko balboa, for example, has not been replicated by research. Certain other foods are only beneficial if you are nutritionally deficient.
I particularly like the lists of things you can do to organize information, and even store it conveniently (as with sticky notes, Evernote, etc.) so you don't have to memorize everything.

By the way, if you have been following my blog, you will have noticed that it is starting to attract a following. I even get fan mail.
This blog reflects my views on learning and memory and should be thought of as a companion to my memory improvement book and main Web site, ThankYouBrain.com. Typically, I write summaries of research reports that have practical application for everyday memory.I will post only when I find a relevant research paper, so don't expect several posts a week. I recommend that you use RSS feed to be notified of each new post. Copyright, W. R. Klemm, 2005. All rights reserved.
