It has begun

July 11...One day in to my Summer Class: Social Software Literacy at Rutgers. Should be a fun class as it gets developed over the next month with LOTS of student involvement.

Want to see it as it grows: http://russl.pbwiki.com (affectionately pronounced as russel). Last night was Introductions and Instant Messaging, Thursday we move to Blogging...go go go :-)

Well back to meebo, I've got IMs to handle...

"I don't wannas"


Ok perhaps this should be "I don't want to(s)", but I just don't wanna...What do I not "wanna" do? EVERYTHING...jeez louise this grind of teaching in the summer and working on prep for the Fall stinks. I'm pooped and I just want to lie down in the park and read a book that will give me absolutely no intellectual stimulation as well.

Thinking of a new "class": How to Avoid All Social Networks, While Still Living in a Place Where I can get Cable and Pizza Delivered. But I guess even teaching the class would lead to yet another social network :-)


For this post I just want to share one of my personal favorite blogs:
http://www.lifehack.org/

Whenever I want to "unplug" from the library and technology worlds, this blog always seems to have something I'm interested in...best yet, usually the articles are short, sweet, and to the point.
