Welcome
Greetings.
If you're reading this post, odds are that you're enrolled in my Twentieth Century Philosophy class and you were in class today.
Todays class was a flurry of loosely related details that only had loose relations to each other. I thought I'd put together some links for those people who are interested in some of the topics that I discussed in class.
I, briefly, discussed the differences between a word processor and a text editor/ (such as LaTeX). The point of this discussion was that you should at least consider you're choices when you're writing. Writing with MS Word may very well be the best choice for you, but you should choose to use word rather than accepting it because its what everyone uses. There's a pretty good (by which I mean, readable) discussion called "
emacs for writers", that looks like another good step.
I also mentioned several bloggin services that you might want to consider:
blogger.com
joeuser.com
livejournal.com
www.radioland.com
I'll post again tommorrow with more details on choosing a style guide and more details on how to blog.
