Musings of the digital world

(thoughts of Writing and New technologies thus far)

To be honest, I really love this unit. It’s learn-at-your-own-pace (except you better have those postings up by Wednesday arvo), listen-to-when-you-want lectures enable us as busy students (that also work and have relationships) to keep slightly less bogged down lives considering to brave a 40min drive south of the river for uni time.

I do enjoy the unit questions, which probe my understanding of text based new media. I would really like to have a physical meet up at the tavern – perhaps at the end of the semester to put names to all the faces that just appear as text with non-physical identities. As a result of reading and writing more, I feel, but it may not be so evident, (due to my shoddy spelling partly due to the speed at which I type) but I have increased by vocabulary and the weaving of sentences together (a craft in itself) has become easier.

Perhaps just a compulsive thing, but I must post a photo of something when I blog, so I’ll leave you to guess where this is in the city of Perth.
