I’ve just finished a paper for my New Media class. It’s a story about reading a newspaper. It’s also about reading the news online. It’s about experiencing each, and comparing, contrasting the two different forms.
I was quite surprised yesterday to find that one of my customers, a writing instructor at Yale, does not use, nor teach, nor keep a weblog. Heh, I said, and proceeded to expound on this writing form. My, aren’t we bloggers a snooty bunch.
Since weblogging itself is a form of new media, I have decided to open up another category for this and leave some record of this journey. If it is not interesting to you, just consider it a space-filler. If it is, at least it’ll all be in one section. I find these academic episodes quite enlightening when looking back at the learning process. As soon as this particular essay is polished, I’ll post a link to it.
Though I don’t suppose you’d be interested in a Statistics Category, eh?
