Readers,
Have been swamped with teaching and administrative work of late, and trying to spend two days a week at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences has me on a slow blogging output these days.
Am working on pieces on forms (the kind you fill out) as rationalizing filters and “information interaction protocols,” the assumptions behind pending online-privacy proposals (from Commerce and FTC), the soc of info implications of the story of the CIA official knew that a Jordanian contact was a problem (a la double agent — he later blew himself up at a remote CIA location), and what it means when we make moral judgments about people’s ignorance of some thing (as in, “she didn’t even know what hip-hop was!”).
Meanwhile, thanks for reading. Would love to read any comments you might have — are there there?
Cheers,
Dan
