My greatest fear

My greatest fear in studying WEB101 is referencing: how to do it, where to find sources, what counts as an appropriate source. I'm familiar with a lot of the content of this course, so, more than anything, what I hope to achieve is to grok academic writing.

Blogging and me

I kept a blog from 2002 to 2009. It was a personal blog - a place to share thoughts and experiences, but mostly it was a record of significant events in my life. I was not a very consistent blogger. Sometime months would go by without a post. When micro-blogging came along, it suited my need to records significant events or random thoughts much better. So, I abandoned blogging for Twitter. However, one lasting effect of blogging was meeting the woman who is now my wife. We met and got to know each other in the "blogosphere".

Thankfully, this blog has a specific purpose - to record my learnings and observations while studying WEB101 from Curtin University through OUA.
