An important message from your host

Dear all, I’m thinking of junking the theme.  Any suggestions of themes you like (or something I can build off of easily) would be appreciated.  Please leave a comment about how you want this changed (since it needs a change).

On the Internet we all know…

I happened to stop into a tweetup last night.  Happenchance (really happenchance) I ran into an old friend of mine, BZ (BenZion in case you all are curious), a phd History Candidate at Ohio State, in for the summer to do some more phd thesis writing.  He’s been an active blogger on a number of [...]

On Posting and Life

While techically I am in the middle of reviewing the last NYTM (yes I did see that smashed IPAD, that was great, we should do that again!), I realized it has been a while since I have posted. Part of the reason, I’ve been moody.  Graduating and it’s uncertainity is hard on me.  It’s also [...]

While everyone else was having a Privacy Scandal

Image by ShanaLC via Flickr I saw the weirdest thing recently.  While we are all having conniptions about privacy, the last person I would ever think threw a wrench in the entire argument about having privacy.  Maybe. A fairly obscure blogger (who I like to read), named Hasidic Rebel, decided to unmask himself as Sholom [...]

On Venture Capital, Aliya, And Israel

Image via Wikipedia One note about this post: Disqus allows me to keep a heavy eye on you all.  I’m not out to have a politics here or politics there talk.  This is not a YAY ISREAL or a BOOO ISRAEL post.  My politics are my politics and they are shaped by my experiences and [...]

This is depressing

Because of some odd scheduling stuff, I couldn’t get registered for anything I really wanted to go to for Social Media Week.  So now I am waitlisted to death.  And I am not sure what to do.  Advice welcome.   Bleh.  I hate when these sorts of things happen.

Freedom and Google

Image via Wikipedia Normally I avoid the subject of freedom at all costs. But the Google/China standoff has made it really important to say something, because I’m watching this in more bated breath than Haiti. Most people, upon meeting me, don’t realize that I burn with certain questions, one of them being “What does it [...]

Mediation on Religion: Or How to Culture Jam Judaism on the Internet

To the people who have educated me and supported me along the way: Thanks. One other note: I have a lot of social data on this subject.  I did a whole 10 page research paper on a related parts of this Judaism, Culture Jamming, and how it affected funding decisions, with footnotes, in 2007.  Apparently [...]
