Guest Lectures in Technologies of Friendship

Wayne Sutton, one of my esteemed guest lecturers in last night’s (penultimate) Technologies of Friendship class, streamed and recorded the lectures via Ustream.tv.  If you’d like to check them out, here’s a link – and I’ve embedded the video.

Thank you again to my speakers – Brian, Wayne, Dave and Abe. We had great conversation and I’m pretty sure we could have kept going for a few more hours (which is saying something for being in class on 8:30PM on a Monday). To find out more about the speakers and their projects, check out the following:

Thanks again to my speakers for a great set of talks.

Next Semester’s Class, Talks this Week

After a little schedule juggling, I think it is safe to announce my course next semester. I’ll be teaching INLS 490, Online Social Networks, on Tuesdays from 2-4:45 PM. Now that we’re about halfway into our semester (how can that be true!), I’m happy to report that I’m having a great time teaching my first class. It certainly helps that I’ve got 25 of the most engaged, thoughtful students I’ve ever encountered. :) Either way, I’m looking forward to teaching again in the spring.

I’m giving a few talks this week, so it’s likely you’ll be hearing from me sparsely. The first talk is a webinar on Facebook, followed by a guest lecture in INLS 500 this evening. If you’re in the area, on Thursday evening I’ll be giving a talk at the awesome Morehead Planetarium – they’re starting a new program called the “Current Science Program” and they’ve invited me to be the first speaker. The talk will be at 7PM on Thursday evening, and you can find out more details here.
