How about those ebooks?

On technology and money, from CNN, Paul Sloan on ebooks; “Virtual book, real money.” Kind of makes them sound like the new vanity press. Read it at

This is a test post from flickr, a fancy photo sharing thing.

Easy or hard habits?

On the 7 & 1/2 habits of highly effective learners (at http://www.plcmc.org/public/learning/player.html ), I'd have to say first is the easiest personally, and the last half (7.5) is hardest. Like many others of you with or working toward a degree, visualizing the end (that sheepskin blazoned M.L.S in my case) was the easy (and most motivational) part of the process. But permission (to ones self) to play on the way is hard. The undesired result is often working harder, but not smarter.

First test

How does this look?
