Prometheus 6   

Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same

Organize This

A story goes that Hell was created when God took Satan to see Heaven. "It's beautiful," Satan said, appreciatively. "Here--let me organize it for you."

In that spirit, we have the idea of organizing blogs by topic or by location.


I wasn't going to post this because the comment arose in the Necho (TheAPIThatWouldHaveBeenFormerlyKnownAsEcho) context and it REALLY makes me want to comment on this whole mess which looks like it's getting messier. See, the same people who aren't getting along for essentially technoreligious reasons are working on Necho, and you know what? A wiki is a good collaboration tool… but that assume you want to collaborate (although a commenter on inessential.com said his biggest problem was "the total assness of Wiki," which still cracks me up).

No matter what the tool, what the plan, what the method, the outcome depends on the intent of the participants.

Not to jerk ya nerves too hard Mark (and Sarah Lai, duck— here comes another non sequitur), this is a perfect example of the mechanics behind my concern over how the anti-"affirmative action" crew will respond if Project Excite (quite deservedly) became the model approach to our education gap.
