Digital Culture Studies

The 13 most embarassing web moments: interestingly, I just saw #6 for the first time, at a talk given by Jonathan Gratch. I am currently reading Convergence Culture, by Henry Jenkins, and now, everything is convergence to me.

Including this: UIC is exploring the possibility of setting up a college endorsed Livejournal site [via gapers block]. What makes it so fascinating to me is that I have been watching and studying college livejournal communities for a number of years, and this is the first time that I have ever seen a college officially get involved with these dynamic, student-driven communities. Good for UIC! Also, and off-topic, is it just me, or does Brad Fitzpatrick look like Jim from The Office in his user pic?
