In recent conversations, the question of how much is too much keeps finding it’s way into the discussion. Everyday I go through a routine of logging into Facebook, firing up Pandora, checking my blog stats, visiting LinkedIn, sifting through my RSS feeds, updating my Twitter, all while sipping coffee, checking my email and outlining my [...]
blogs for social change
05Dec08This is my parting post prior to going offline in an effort to dig completely into finance, for Thursday’s final exam. With a little luck, I’ll survive with all limbs in tact.

making sense of the bailout
09Oct08Doyle of smartMeme offers an insightful and thought-provoking reflection on the recent bailout. She sheds light on a challenging topic and makes the case for why things are never going to be the same.
I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling like this economic meltdown moment is a game-changer. The recent firestorm over the “bailout” [...]

Both blogs are full of wonderfully satisfying creative [...]
diversity and the web
18Sep08I don’t think that I’m the only African-American edublogger but I have noticed that racial diversity is lacking in the ’sphere. Am I wrong? If not, what are the reasons?
