Children are taught very little with respect to their approach to the internet, which is probably the crux of another problem. One, I argue, that is more significant.

Every Wordpress.com blog is an OpenID Identifier! This is awesome news! Identity urls are the top-level blog urls, and look like http://username.wordpress.com/.

Have Java midterm tomorrow morning, will be needing sleep.
Have gotten the cd.
J, check the blogs directly, follow the commenter’s links
