Mmmm Coffee

Found this bit of humor while stumbling at work. Working in a library at night is a great place to get homework done but can be incredibly dull otherwise. Stumble helps to pass the time and I have found some good sites that way.

Occurs to me that I haven't explained the title of my blog. It is a line from The Road Not Taken a poem by Robert Frost. The poem is significant to me on several levels. It was read at the graduation ceremony when I received my AS degree. It is also a very apt analogy of my life. I have taken the road less traveled by. Finally it is an apt analogy for a blog where one thing leads into the next.

I like the idea of focusing on the forking paths image ... that's pretty common in hypertext theory as a means of thinking about what goes on on the Web.

Another way of thinking about it is as a rhizome -- why do you think that is?

You need to add me to the list of contributors for our group blog so I can... do stuff... on it....

Which library? UWM? Just curious. I work at the public library downtown. The big hulking one that you can't miss. However, I am just a circulation aide, which is no more than a glorified library grunt.
