I often run across something I'd love to mention to my students, but will never remember to; indeed if I did mention, it might break the flow of the class. Similarly, I am often asked to pass on info to classes, on special events or available money, that I will never remember to do (focusing on the course!); if I did, most students wouldn't pay attention or write it down.<BR/><BR/>The blog's a place for all that, plus things that friends, colleagues and perfect strangers might be interested in. Or not.<BR/><BR/>I think for my blog to work like that, I can't be either too personal, or too impersonal. It's got to be grounded in what I am actually thinking about, but not everything I am thinking about.<BR/><BR/>I have very strong political opinions, for reasons that ought to be pretty obvious -- the stakes are very high -- but what would be the point of putting them in my blog?Steve Muhlbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136005762428407135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13713642.post-1146737257148210382006-05-04T05:07:00.000-05:002006-05-04T05:07:00.000-05:00"There is only one blog post I’m ashamed of, in wh..."There is only one blog post I’m ashamed of, in which I savaged the research of someone else in another field."<BR/><BR/>Did Baudrillard really write you a letter?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13713642.post-1146715799542760402006-05-03T23:09:00.000-05:002006-05-03T23:09:00.000-05:00a "puff piece?"An interview in which one must puff...a "puff piece?"<BR/><BR/>An interview in which one must puff out their chest the whole time? :pAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
