Ok, instead of Clay Shirky, you’ve now got Dave Sifry, Tantek Çelik, and the rest of the Technorati gang as advisors. I’d say you’re doing extremely well. 8^)

This conversation has reminded me of a track on Kanye West’s latest album, The College Dropout:

You keep it going man, you keep those books rolling,
You pick up those books your going to read
And not remember and you roll man.
You get that a sociate degree, okay,
Then you get your bachelors, then you get your masters
Then you get your master’s masters,
Then you get your doctron,
You go man, then when everybody says quit
You show them those degree man, when
Everybody says hey, your not working,
Your not making in money,
You say look at my degrees and you look at my life,
Yeah i’m 52, so what, hate all you want,
But i’m smart, i’m so smart, and i’m in school,
And these guys are out here making
Money all these ways, and i’m spended mine to be smart.
You know why?
Because when i die, buddy, you know
What going to keep me warm, that right, those degrees

Maybe you’d end up where Alex and Dennis of DodgeBall are: in the Google Cool Kids Club.

Of course, we can’t all have Clay Shirky as our graduate school advisors.
