I've been reading Mark Pilgrim's blog for a couple of weeks, mostly because of his great stuff on tech topics I'm interested in.
Stopped by there today, and his post on addiction blew me away.
This is what makes blogs so amazing. That you can be browsing for XML and end up deep inside someone's head. It shakes you up. It makes you remember that it's a big world out there, with scary things and beautiful things and amazing people who write about both.
Hi, Liz, I just posted a presentation for a seminar paper onto my blog. If there's any way you could take a look at it, I'd be very grateful. You're not getting the full context of it, I realize, since you didn't hear my talk (and because you haven't been in the class for the duration of the semester. Suffice it to say that we read Foucault's Discipline and Punish, de Certeau's The Practice of Everyday Life, and Lyotard's The Postmodern Explained, and our professor recommended our using these three theorists as our theoretical framework for our papers; the French poststructuralists lend themselves to cultural studies methodology. Hope you're doing well!
