new blogs of note

Two new blogs added to my aggregator this week.

The first, “Bad Mother” by Ayelet Waldman, was recommended by my friend Allison. Ayelet is a published novelist, married to a Pulitzer-prize winning author, with four kids ranging from 1 to 10 years. Her blog is delightful—what’s not to like about a site with an entry that begins “There are not enough drugs in the world to alleviate the horror of being home alone with four children, one of whom is completely enraptured with his father.”

The second, “Hurtling” by Richard Hodkinson, is more of professional interest to me. Richard is a graduate student at USC’s Annenberg School, and shares my interest in backchannels as a destabilizing communication tool.

Thanks for the Lin to Ayelet. Extremely humerus... I have something to look forward to when we start to have kids. I just wish that the free version of blogger.com sites had syndication functions...
