Grobstein's blogs
"When I was in high school, I edited the school newspaper and wrote a biweekly column for it. In the inaugural column, I said something like I can't guarantee anyone that what I write will be interesting or useful to any particular reader. What I can and will guarantee is that I will write only about things that have proven interesting to me and that I think might prove interesting to others, and be as clear as I can about both why they are interesting to me and might be to others. That's the spirit intended here, with the addition of active exchange.

thoughts on readings for 2/18
--Paul Grobstein’s blog touches on his notion of involving the reader, that he thinking about his readers and that they might find his blog engaging; he wants to start a conversation and is interested to hear what other people think. As I see it, this is the ideal blogger mindset; someone who is conscientious and considers the reader rather than rambling on.
