Scholarly Life of a Committed Technofile

My rants and raves about being a dedicated scholar and technophile in the community college setting.

Techno-philes, -files, and -fetishes!

So this will be s short posting…one of these getting started kind of posts. Yes, in the title of the blog I have misspelled Technophile. This is the first way I spelled it when I came up with the title for the blog. And yes, I am finishing up my PhD in English, you would think that I would be a fabulous speller; however, I’m not. I think leaving the misspelling in the title will help remind me, and hopefully my readers, that blogs are publications about immediacy. Yeah, yeah…they are reflective, but they are to be more of an immediate reaction. This should give some space to the errors of urgency, including spelling!

Yeah, yeah…you are right, it is somewhat of an excuse for my bad spelling. And hey… Technofile” looks cooler. Maybe it also allows us to run with the metaphor of “file.” This blog will become my filing cabinet of my “technofetishist” rantings…hey, that word gets the “f”?! But this is also sounding worse, not only am I making excuses for my spelling, but also making naughty implications with my language. I guess I should leave this topic for a while. LOL

Next time…a delayed reflective reaction for an article about academic publishing. I know I just said these posting are supposed to be timely; however, I’ve been saving this article for this blog (once I got started) for a while now.
