Tuesday, November 3, 2009. What's Wrong with Cave Life? Anyone who knows me in any way knows that I spend more time on the web than I should. ("On the web". sounded like quite a gramps there, huh.)

SchiffNMFall09: Keep Me Interested or I'm Gone
http://schiffnmfall09.blogspot.com/2009/10/keep-me-interested-or-im-gone.html
Wednesday, October 7, 2009. Keep Me Interested or I'm Gone. Now where was I? Oh, yeah, there's gotta be some there there and some real draw (the definition of which I'll keep working at in this and subsequent posts) if you want me to keep coming back to your blog well, to drink your bloggy draft, etcetera etcetera. So, what's next. Well, let me keep at J-Two-O. Keep Your Tone Trimmed and Burning. There's cheek at J-Two-O. If you still don't catch my drift on tone, check out grammar.edu. We All Hate You&#...

Andrea Hiller's Advanced Type Blog: November 2009
http://hillernmfall09.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Andrea Hiller's Advanced Type Blog. Friday, November 27, 2009. Dan Schmidt, Across the Airwaves. So Across the Airwaves. Is a blog about recent/not recent tv shows that have made an impact on. something. That something may be a group of writers, a group of creators, a group of crazy teentastic vampire fans, etc. I really like his blog for one because of the flow. But anyway, the color scheme. So, as I've said before, I think most blogs need a san serif modern font. In Dan's case I think the san serif...

SchiffNMFall09: Pin Point Laser Guided Stray But Don't Stray and For God's Sake Tie Back to Your Raison d'Etre
http://schiffnmfall09.blogspot.com/2009/10/pin-point-laser-guided-stray-but-dont.html
Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Pin Point Laser Guided Stray But Don't Stray and For God's Sake Tie Back to Your Raison d'Etre. And my blog critique rolls on. This week: some words about not straying from the IT you have designated as IT (after all, it is your it; no one forced that it on you). and honoring the reason you created your blog in the first place. Long ago back in the day way back when, I used to call it " focus. And harp incessantly about its glory. I even had a focus cudgel. In addition to sta...

SchiffNMFall09: What's Mine Is...
http://schiffnmfall09.blogspot.com/2009/10/whats-mine-is.html
Wednesday, October 21, 2009. In this unit, we are all about considering issues that can mostly simply be summarized (not given the fair, comprehensive, and nuanced treatment, of course, of course) under the banner of "ownership.". The Banner, The Questions. A few of a zillion questions you can find on this banner: Who owns what I create? Who should benefit- intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and, yes, monetarily- from my creations? How does what I create occupy the world? How to get at this? Like ...

SchiffNMFall09: A Beacon in the Forest of Blogs; or, Why Should I Belly Up to Yours and do more than Engage in a Perfunctory Scan?
http://schiffnmfall09.blogspot.com/2009/10/beacon-in-forest-of-blogs-or-why-should.html
Thursday, October 1, 2009. A Beacon in the Forest of Blogs; or, Why Should I Belly Up to Yours and do more than Engage in a Perfunctory Scan? Yes, they are easily conceived and nearly as easily executed, de rigueur in a world gone sharingly mad, part and parcel of one’s membership in the 21st century communication club, and therefore there are too many of them out there, and we are forced to pick and choose. Stuff, middle-aged Jewish man. Living away from New York stuff, Grateful Dead. Perhaps it’s...

This blog is dedicated to topics discussed in my Writing For New Media Class at Columbia College in Chicago, IL. Wednesday, November 18, 2009. Can Yelp Be Considered As A Device For Blackmail? Hey Writing for New Media Class Members, I don’t know how many of you read the article. About the website Yelp. But does this story really surprise you?

SchiffNMFall09: Library Thing
http://schiffnmfall09.blogspot.com/2009/11/library-thing.html
Tuesday, November 10, 2009. As an English Professor, my reading list. Should be riddled with profound and transcendent titles. The stuff I'm supposed to pass on to my intellectually hungry sons or lurking students. Well, it turns out that those days are gone. My reading these days is typically, in a word, transactional (the anti-profound). Truth be told, like many others of my ilk. I spend most of my reading time reading (evaluating? Or, if a new one has dropped from the James Lee Burke. A Web 2.0 so...
