Back to research

The ever-insightful Matt Jones has posted a bunch of stuff of interest lately.

And whip-smart Matt Webb takes a look at metaphors for computers - including the notion that "the computer is a medium containing one or more social actors". And I will go against the "medium" metaphor and say that computers are "non-human actors". Come on, Matt, you know you wanna ask me what that means! And I'll try to do a better job of explaining it than I did with Merholz ;)

Also on the radar: I got a message today inviting me to apply for a graduate summer internship at PARC... Damn, that could be an interesting twelve weeks! Wish me luck in my application and I'll keep you posted ;)
