BSU? Listen to reason, and become innovative in an discipline that doesn't involve either Hockey or Industrial Technology?

*a long pause* Sorry, my sides hurt so much from laughing. I've got to stop now.


 
Just in time for the semester to begin, Brian Lamb has published Wide Open Spaces: Wikis, Ready or Not. While Lamb doesn't mention us in the article (although he mentions everyone I would mention if I were writing the article), if you follow the links (which you would, wouldn't you), you get to this page, where we're placed in good company.

And while you're at it, have a look at UBCWiki. Once again, Canada leads the pack in innovation. (For two years been telling BSU that this is what we need to do, but will they listen... ha.)

Oh, and welcome back.

Seriously.

There is no way those blogs that Dr. Morgan linked to are real. Some mid-life admissions staff-person probably thought of first-year-student FAQ's and composed some "ultra-hip" answers. Thanks for sharing those!

Have a look at this: Student blogging project wins silver award, and then skim the student blogs at Waterloo.

Q: If writing / blogging is an act of self-creation (to write is to become what you have written), then what about these three bloggers? Authentic? Bogus? Something else?

Natasha showed me this place, a Fantasy Blog Share Market. (sometimes you have to scroll way down to get to the contents of the page.)Turns out some of us are being bought and sold and traded, links counted and values placed accordingly.
