so meta

ok. so it's been a long time since i've posted. i promise to get back on the blog.

i'm sitting in LIS654 Information Technologies right now and we're learning about Web 2.0 and specifically blogs at this moment. i am reminded of my dear cannoneers and that i haven't forgotten you. give me a good whack with the fraternity paddle upon our next meeting.

the class is quiet tonight. no one answered questions like "what is web 2.0?" or "what is a blog?" which makes me wonder if either no one is using this technology or everyone is using it. has it become such a part of our internet experience that to describe it in such rigid definitions is unnecessary? i hesitate to assume this since only 2 people raised their hands when asked "who blogs?" but nearly the entire class raised their hands for social networking.

we're still talking about blogs

now we're talking about vlogs.

ok that's enough. this is becoming too meta for me.
i promise real content next time.

Liveblogging class! Why haven't we thought to do this before?
