Christopher Scott Rice: Open Left and other progressive blogs
http://christopherscottrice.blogspot.com/2007/07/open-left-and-other-progressive-blogs.html
Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Open Left and other progressive blogs. I just wanted to give a shout-out to a new Progressive blog, Open Left. Open Left was started by Chris Bowers and Matt Stoller, formerly of MyDD. According to Chris and Matt, they left MyDD to start a site that would be focused less on party politics and elections, and more on building a broad progressive movement and , eventually, governing majority. Chris wrote an excellent article on the site here. Maybe I'm just picky, but I feel like it'...

Reality has caught up with the events of science fiction such that The Future is Now(tm)! William Gibson's recent books,. Seem to illustrate this point. However, there was one particular passage near the end of Maddox's article that really caught my attention:. What do YOU think? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Intro ...

Christopher Scott Rice: Faux News: Keeping it (Un)Real
http://christopherscottrice.blogspot.com/2007/07/faux-news-keeping-it-unreal.html
Thursday, July 26, 2007. Faux News: Keeping it (Un)Real. My dislike of Bill O'Reilly is no secret. After hearing Jenna Jameson spill about his between segment banter with her on a HTS special, it all made sense, that slimy, crawling-skin sensation that popped up whenever he was on. The condition was only worsened by that clip of his recent "interview" with the Miss New Jersey who apparently doesn't understand how Facebook and the Interwubs work. Comedy with a Freshness Date, Christ on a crutch.

Wednesday, July 4, 2007. Happy Birthday, America. You know I love you. Tip of the hat to AndrewSullivan.com. Thank you for your comment today, July 4. I rarely hear that in such a positive tone. I've read personal essays where complaints about America runs rampant, never stopping to say "I love you." I hope your interests in activism and politics take you a long way. Stay positive.

Christopher Scott Rice: The Fuzzy Tail; or, the End of Disciplinarity
http://christopherscottrice.blogspot.com/2007/07/fuzzy-tail-or-end-of-disciplinarity.html
Tuesday, July 10, 2007. The Fuzzy Tail; or, the End of Disciplinarity. Ran across this presentation on the front page of Slideshare. Today I've been doing a lot of thinking about the application of Long Tail. Thinking to being an educator and a Political Scientist lately, and also what it means for political activism and campaigns. This is one reason why I've been reading. And if disciplinarity is breaking down, then the importance of becoming a generalist, especially one practicing what Dan Pink.

Friday, July 27, 2007. Microblogging: Scoble Show Interviews Jaiku Founders. As many of you are aware, I've been interested in the various uses for blogging in an academic setting, and have experimented with a variety of platforms for this (I'm looking into using Vox for a social blogging experiement in a political theory class this fall, and probably WordPress.com for a groupblogging project in a Kentucky Politics class). I wants it, my preciousss! And Jaiku - have emerged as potential alternatives.
