Recovery
May 27th, 2005Apologies for not blogging of late, I have been inundated with an unexpectedly heavy workload; the course I did at the start of the month demanded far more essay work than I expected. Added to that, I had to prepare a presentation (PowerPoint, alas) about the dissertation I am writing to members of my department.
Aside - one of my fellow students is studying the phenomenon of blogging, with reference to his native Chile and how blogs ’swarm’ around particular memes, which looks a really interesting dissertation. Feeling I was too much of an insider, I am not writing my dissertation on blogging - instead I’m looking at Open Source and the socioeconomic structures within the development community. Hence the number of OS-related books in the sidebar at the moment.
Anyway, I handed in my final essay on Wednesday and presented on Thursday, and am suitably shattered. I have not had a chance to read other websites this past week, let alone write about them, so a decent blog post may still take a couple of days to follow. In the meantime… Kitten War!
