class presentation

Sunday, February 22nd, 2004

We did a presentation on our software project today (a website for the Bison, our school newspaper). The presentation went really well. Even the comments and questions we had were very helpful. Now, I actually have an open evening– what a relief, maybe I’ll get some stuff done.

By the way, I discover that a friend of mine, Melissa Bernard has a blog over at xanga.com . Check it out.

iPods causing anti-social behavior?

Are iPods causing anti-social behavior?

This article [free reg. required] at the NYT website is claiming that iPod use in NYC is causing people to become less social. I can’t help but think that the author’s right. I haven’t had my iPod for very long, but I’ve come to a point where I don’t want to use it when walking to class because it isolates me from the outside world. Sometimes that isolation is good and necessary, but I don’t want to do it all the time.
