I Flickr-stalk people.

Googling just got so unsatisfying.  What do you really find when you Google someone?  Technical publications?  Posts to automotive/birdwatching/vegan recipe newsgroups?  Boring.  Flickr-stalking, however?  That's where the good stuff is.

The Global Middle Ages Project (GMAP) is a collaborative, interdisciplinary initiative to show what a broader view of the Middle Ages through deep time looks like. It grew out of a course designed by Geraldine Heng at the University of Texas at Austin, which you can read about here. Some of the goals of the course read:

I have to admit that when I first came to Duke I was a bit overwhelmed with the concept of "interface." It is very difficult to say precisely what "interface" is.

How does one understand, much less visualize, such metaphysics? With video interviews with digital pioneers and 3-d patent visualizations, of course!

The first day of panels was quite fascinating. Educators had the stage for panels dealing with problems and technologies in higher education, students & children, and scholarly production and publishing. How is public life different now for teens? What do internet technologies mean for students today? Schools need to radically change in order to prepare kids for college and life. (Citizenship was not discussed nor was the commercial nature of many of these online social networks). While educators were on some of the panels, many of them were composed of consultants or company representatives.

Adults are always trying to understand kids, and yet the answer is always just around the corner. The panels all carried a similar theme in the belief that supporting thoughtful changes in our education and social systems (not just investing in teachers but also guidance counselors, social workers and the like) are more important than limiting technology access in addressing critical issues in our society.
