    Apparently, seeing an attractive person look at an object automatically makes you like it more [ http://meteuphoric.wordpress.com/2009/09/06/subconscious-sta... ]. I guess this is part of the reason ads tend to feature good-looking people. This makes me want to avoid looking at ads as much as possible -- we are vulnerable to manipulation in ways which are completely impossible to defend against.

    I recently found a blog that has something kind of like a long, comprehensive “getting started” page – http://meteuphoric.wordpress.com/opinion/ . The news post of when the blogger added that page is http://meteuphoric.wordpress.com/2011/01/19/my-novel-opinion... . Maybe you want something like that page.
