    The changing privacy policy for Google came up in last class (I think Dibs mentioned it), and I thought this was an interesting article that talks about how difficult it is to navigate around the changes.

    This is a page off the official website of Tim Berners-Lee, and here he explains the Semantic Web, which involves "using the WWW infrastructure to create a global, decentralized, weblike mesh of machine-processable knowledge."

FBI director: Cyber-threats will become top worry - 1 views

  •  
    As the parameters of cultural capital changes and cyber-literacy assumes central stage, security agencies such as the FBI also take note and understand that they have to re-adjust to cater to the threat that hackers pose.

  •  
    Even though Dibs is right in saying that erasing your history does not essentially change anything, if you want to access a utopian fantasy, this could be helpful.

Poster Cabaret - 0 views

    Here is the other website that I look back to frequently. I don't want to spam the message board with websites that are largely just "inspiration" sites, but if any of you are interested in others, I have a bunch and am always looking to trade.

20x200 | Affordable Art Prints - 0 views

  •  
    This is a website that offers limited print, affordable art. I like to look at what is being done other places to get ideas for my own work. This website and one other one (which I will post next ... which you'll see first) are two websites that I like to look at a lot for stylistic ideas of how to do poster designs, typographic designs, website designs, and book covers.

The Plagiarist's Tale - 0 views

  •  
    An interesting article about an author who was recently caught up in a plagiarism scandal that dated back over (nearly) his whole writing career. The article deals with intentionality and references/interviews Jonathan Lethem who we discussed in class (and I think Sandy bookmarked).

A Type of Nostalgia - Advice - The Chronicle of Higher Education - 0 views

  •  
    Fascinating article from frequent Chronicle tech blogger on why some academic scholars continue to use the typewriter. The primary answer - nostalgia - is both a mood (in the sense of a feeling one has in relation to history and technology), a political statement (opposed to forward modernization), and - perhaps - deeply related to the "literary" or writing (notalgia as why one writes).
