Change: New Technologies for Old

I love most of what I see at the Heretik, but I really hummed when I saw this one.
When Chicken Little Blogs

It punches a ticket for my mind on several trains of thought.

• It makes me think of Marek Breiger.
  
• It reminds me a recent post on Will Richardson's blog about how new technologies are never as good as old technologies when they start, but soon eclipse them, so if you don't take the plunge with the new at the expensive of some temporary inefficiencies you will be left behind.
  
• It reminds me of one of my favorite YouTube videos, Introducing the Book.
• It makes me smile.
  

Thing #4, Week #2: Look at my cool BlogRoll

So I just registered my blog with the wonderful women of the MCHS library. 

Did you see my cool BlogRoll? Most of these were imported from my Google Reader account where I follow about 20 blogs on a semi-regular basis. Some of those blogs update very often (10-15 times a day) and some quite infrequently. Several of the ones I did not include are both seasonal and reflect very specific personal interests (Giants scores, MSU football scores -- RSS is a great way to get scores updated all in one place).

The blogs I listed in my BlogRoll reflect 2 or 3 of my major interests, education, technology and news/politics. I would especially recommend Will Richardson's Weblogg-ed for discussions about education reform and technology and Think Progress for news with a progressive outlook. I also really like Indexed for a little lighthearted appeal. Oh, and I'm a great big fangirl of local-really-smart-girl-made-good Rachel Maddow.
