Addicted to blogging?

Here’s an interesting look at the possibility that blogging is causing problems for people and taking away from people being able to live their lives offline.

I can easily see where that could happen, but I think I suffer from the opposite effect, when I’m not out living my life, I’ve got nothing to blog about! (See the lack of posts here when I was down with the flu last week..)

Let’s hope that all of us are finding the positive benefits to connecting with other survivors without crossing this line into being obsessed with our blogs, eh?

    The recent article in the Chronicle of Higher Education paints the picture pretty well, but what we are seeing this last week with the trial, and eventual conviction on a count of child endangerment of former University president Graham Spanier is an interesting example of something that I think is fairly typical.

    By now you’ve heard all about the riots that followed Ohio State’s victory over Michigan, but what you may not know is how common this sort of thing has become. This got greater media coverage because the game was for a spot in the Fiesta Bowl National Championship game so ESPN,CNN etc. were all in…

  • Quiet few days

    I know, I know, I’ve been pretty quiet around here lately. Those of you who read my other sites know I haven’t been quiet on the tech side of things, but between the many projects I’ve been working on over there, the various events leading up to my birthday Weds., and just having a busy…

    To Create Change, You Have to Move

    Over the weekend, we spent some time in New Orleans, and stopped by the sculpture garden in City Park. One particular installation grabbed my attention as a metaphor for childhood abuse and trauma. Often, when speaking to survivors, I hear them describe being “stuck”. I understand this, as it is common for many of us…
