Second Life As The Virtual Campus
09/24/2004 09:47 AMWhile some professors don't like students using the internet or
chatting during class, it looks like a few are going in the opposite
direction --
using the
virtual game environment Second Life as a virtual classroom. The
article discusses a professor who uses it in a "Games for the Web"
class, which makes sense, obviously. However, another professor using
it, teaches an urban planning class. Of course, Second Life creator
Linden Labs is perfectly thrilled to give out free accounts to
students in the belief that many will become subscribers at the end of
the class.

operations were suspended last week while we did a little spring
cleaning. Turns out, there's more dust under the couch than previously
anticipated. That, and we've decided to go out and buy new pieces of
furniture. Oh, yes... and it's not spring. I've been so caught up in
the maze of my personal and professional lives, that I completely
forgot about the hour gain this weekend. I look out the window now and
see California smoke, but those fires rival these which are burning in
my own little world. "I'd drown apart from that which I learned to
live without." My poetry is back with a vengeance....

10/29/2003 01:15 AMSo now
it probably all makes sense why my posting habits here have
declined to a mockable all-time-low.
If I had posted more frequently, my entries would have most likely
been about the amount of stress I was under or how tired I was from
working. And, if i posted that, I'm sure a number of you would have
thought "what the hell is she talking about? Movable Type can't be
that hard to develop."
And, if I had ignore the self-embargo I had placed on myself not to
speak about work, I feared that not only I would have said too much
but I would have also created a public record of my weaknesses --
something that I was sure would come to haunt me some day.
So I wrote the sort of posts that kept me in a pre-TypePad,
pre-funding state of mind. What you see in my archives from the past
few months represents almost all thoughts I've had that relate to my
for-public-consumption life. The fact that I've forked has been
incredibly difficult to reconcile in dollarshort.org and I'm so
terribly happy that, with this announcement, I'm living an secret-free
existence.
We write weblogging tools because we believe in the medium. At some
point, the writer has to choose what they can and can not disclose in
public. Some of this has to do with strategy and some of it has to do
with legalities. Weblogging is amazing because you can read the
thoughts of a newly-minted CEO and understand, with one post, what has
been going through her mind for the past couple months.
That's a power that we can't take for granted.

One of the best days of her life
06/01/2004 11:58 AMOn Sunday I had a special date with my seven year old second cousin,
McKenna. We planned to go clamming together, that is, dig up clams on
the beach at low tide. (And then take them home and eat them!) The day
broke clear and warm, a slight breeze but nothing too chilling. We sat
in the sun as we awaited the low tide in the early afternoon. And as 1
PM neared, we climbed into the pickup truck with our rakes, basket,
and brand new rubber gloves and headed to the western end of the
island. Our destination was a small strip of land inside Madaket
Harbor called Jackson's Point (here's a map of west Nantucket, we went
right above the "E" on the map).
We arrived to find the beach deserted, not only of people but of the
soft-shelled clams (aka "steamers") we'd hope to dig up. The sand was
littered with empty scallop shells as we began our explorations. Soon
we happened upon clusters of mussels all wrapped together in sand,
mud, and grass and we changed our plan. Mussels it would be! We
gathered about three pounds as we explored the beach at low tide.
In addition to mussels, we found a knobbed whelk (the whelk was still
inside the shell) and the cutest little hermit crab. We watched sea
gulls catch and eat crabs on the beach and collected some shells. And
after it was all done, we drove into town for an ice cream cone. More
than once McKenna said to me, "Meghan, this has been one of the best
days of my life!" And you know what? It was a really special one for
me too.
That night, McKenna and I steamed the mussels for the rest of our
family. Since we didn't have any white wine, we substituted beer
instead. Everyone agreed the mussels were delicious. If you like
mussels, why not try McKenna and Meghan's Mussels next time you're
preparing some.
