"Their boats are too small and too fragile," said King Harold in 1065. "England is perfectly safe. There is absolutely no risk of a Viking invasion.
Since the King experience gained momentum as a seaman, the barons and dukes of England, assumed that he knew whereof he spoke. It has been found King Harold, based on facts?
Viking or Norman ships are called teeth because of its simple construction technique, in which the timbers are cut to fit, without nails. Since teeth were fitted with a single mast and sail, which were easier to handle.
Teeth were ideal for navigating the river upstream to infiltrate the territories Foreigners behind the defense lines. In such cases, the plug was removed, the crew picked up scans, and pushed the boat rowing.
Horses and other animals were on the deck near the crew, sharing the limited space available. When it rained, it there was no coverage. In addition, the small teeth allowed the crew to get easily when kept frozen.
In 1066, King Harald said that the Vikings were about to attack England with a fleet of teeth, but was dismissed as a rumor. The boats are too small for the transport of horses and weapons. The boats were too fragile to move away from the coast.
When the Vikings came to England, landed the horses were grouped near the beach, and began moving rapidly towards York. Two weeks later, crushed the invading English army in Hastings.
King Harold was captured, mutilated and dismembered. His death marked the end of the Anglo-Saxon rule in England. The Vikings or Normans, as they came to be called, had taken the country by their small teeth.
What lessons can we draw from history? Does wisdom that persists in our time-mails? Yes, yes. Blogs of the Internet are the digital equivalent of Viking teeth.
Like England in 1066, tend to perceive our culture as a stable constellation of well-established media. TV, radio, newspapers and magazines like King Harold dukes and lords. Blogs Internet such as Viking teeth appear too small to have any cultural weight.
If you are a writer with a blog on the Internet, how could better implement Viking strategy to increase your audience? This is my opinion.
1. LIMITED SPACE: The Vikings have not had much space on your teeth. Internet readers do not have much time to read. Keep your blog for what's important.
2. Facility Operating: Cogs were easy to use. Make it easy to update your blog using a simple format. Do not complicate your life.
3. Consistently high quality: Small boat sailing the coast allow for errors of navigation. Ensure that the publication texts of high quality to your blog.
4. NOT dead weight: invaders from the sea could not afford to take any port deadweight. Reduce your blog to the point. Few people have time to rest.
5. Everything you need: Vikings have made with them everything they needed. Horses, weapons, clothing and water. Make sure that your blog has what is absolutely necessary as their biographical information.
6. Keep it simple: Sprockets can be built quickly because of its simple construction technique. How long do you need to Update your blog? Can you find a way to make it faster?
I am convinced that internet blogs are a growing cultural force. Will they replace traditional media every time? It's hard to say, but the fact is that public television, radio, newspapers and magazines decreases gradually.
Allow me that King Harold of England was probably right when it calculates that the teeth were too small. His experience in the Sailing has shown you teeth were too fragile to invade a country and take charge of a culture. Unfortunately for him, he forgot to mention the Vikings.
