Pretensions: eBooks for an iCulture
http://marmaran.blogspot.com/2010/04/ebooks-for-iculture.html
In which I pretend to be a big deal while secretly not knowing what is going on. Thursday, April 29, 2010. EBooks for an iCulture. To start with, I do not think that the traditional idea of a book will ever leave us. There is something about holding a book in your hands, smelling it, flipping the pages, being able to flip at will to various parts of the book that will always be in demand. So I'm a fan of eBooks. I'm a bigger fan of real books. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome S524 Spring 2012!

Pretensions: 5 PEOPLE LAB - PERSON FIVE
http://marmaran.blogspot.com/2010/04/5-people-lab-person-five.html
In which I pretend to be a big deal while secretly not knowing what is going on. Monday, April 26, 2010. 5 PEOPLE LAB - PERSON FIVE. The last person I did Reader's Advisory for was my mom. She also received the email from me with the five questions; her answers though were alarmingly brief. For the question "Have you read anything lately that you enjoyed? She answered "biography, i enjoyed it". Wow mom, thanks! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome S524 Spring 2012! EBooks for an iCulture.

Jane is not particularly fond of Ian, she thinks him and his work are frauds, mostly because she does not understand his work. She finds his flashy manner of dress pretentious and she is rather put off by all the people who fawn all over him at each art fair. To make them forget about the bitter winter going on about them...

In which I pretend to be a big deal while secretly not knowing what is going on. Wednesday, April 21, 2010. REFELCTIONS-A YEAR AS A SLIS STUDENT. Last summer, while cruising around on a boat on Flathead Lake. Our host heard that I was going to school to become a librarian. "Aren't libraries on the way out? He asked me. At the time, honestly, I didn't really know. They could have been. I was stuck in a rut, had been told I'd love the library science field, and thought "why the heck not? With the recent do...

Following our discussion in class today, I think that thinking about just how far to take the whole "give the people what they want" philosophy, because at some point I do think the line has to be drawn. Book out there. Sure, they are completely formulaic and predictable, if you've read one you can predict the plot of every other, but I d...
