Today I'm guest lecturing in a couple of media literacy classes on blogs and blogging. I pointed to Robot Wisdom as an example of an early Web log. The class was intrigued by the statement "I am a guacamole of knowledge..." a pullquote from a post on Overheard at Work. I told the class if the instructor asks for a response paper, "Start your paper with 'Chris McConnell is a a guacamole of knowledge'."

Update: I was shocked - shocked! - that none of the students in the UTeach class were MySpace users. Or maybe some were users but wouldn't fess up to it. In the second class, which is composed of RTF majors and grad students, I wound up showing my profile on the screen to use as an example.
