Last week on the wiki project!!

My goodness me what a ride!!! Finally I have finished my writing for the wiki page. Not that it was much writing as such, but the research was on something that was on a subject very new to me. But now we can concentrate on setting up the site and that is a relieve. All in all I think we have done great in the group. Unfortunately Jess have been absent most of the time so I am not sure exactly where she belongs in this project. However if she turns up tomorrow with a page of research useful for us and the site I am alright putting it up. It has been an interesting journey doing this course. And thinking back all in all glad to be able to work with people I have not worked with before as we will all go separate ways in a few weeks time. Always good to gain more friends on the last breath of a degree. Funny how three years of your life can go so quick, and still not being able to speak to everyone in the classroom. Watching the youtube film much truthful is said about contemporary student life. The Internet has become a frightening important part of our life. Most of communication is done online, skype, facebook, myspace, email etc. is so important for us in the west that we are cut of from the world if we have not got access to a computer. News covering is done online and we don't realize how widely we are influenced by the use of the Internet. Sitting in my room with my computer I am thinking about what I would do without the Internet. I remember my childhood full of adventures and explorations in the real world. Walking in the woods using my imagination to play trolls and witches under the young trees. Pleasures we in our contemporary society easily forget when surfing the net and talking with our friends via Facebook. This creates the question weather the internet is such a good idea for us humans. Well...as long as we have our imagination intact I guess it is good. Just feel my backside grow bigger and bigger by each minute I am sitting by my desk surfing the internet. Better finish this blog entry for today and continue researching for my dissertation : )
