Choosing people: the role of social capital in information seeking behaviour
It is an almost universal finding in studies investigating human information behaviour that people choose other people as their preferred source of information. An explanation for the use of people as information sources is that they are easier to approach than more formal sources and therefore are a least effort option. However there have been few studies that have investigated who the people chosen as information sources are and what their relationship to the information seeker is. From

Online learning solutions, consulting, and support: incsub.org
James Farmer has a new project,
incsub.org, which offers free hosting to teachers. As
he explains on his blog, So, by providing free-for-teachers hosting, installation, support and consultation for weblogs, wikis, CMSs and more, I figure I get to learn an enormous amount (which will certainly help me in my career), help some frustrated teachers out and show the light to others who would have a lot of trouble technically getting there.

Fighting Back with IPac
Today I learned about
IPac, a "nonpartisan group dedicated to preserving individual freedom through balanced intellectual property policy." I was impressed enough by their effort to donate $10 to their cause. What I find most appealing about their approach is their emphasis on
promoting candidates who endorse sensible views of copyright/patent law reform. I was very pleased to see a fellow Barton on the list of supported candidates; perhaps this "Joe Barton" is a distant relative of mine? From

Hackers Obtain Passwords on Purdue University Network
Sometime Wednesday, Purdue's IT department (ITaP) discovered that hackers had accessed multiple university servers and obtained usernames and passwords. ITaP and university officials have since asked all facutly, staff, and students to change all their passwords on Purdue systems. No fun for us here as faculty and teaching assistant computers in the English department are all disconnected from the Internet while Purdue discovers the source of the attack and tries to uncover all compromised systems.

Having Students Write Free Software Documentation
As Richard Stallman and other free software enthusiasts often point out, the problem with free software isn't usually the lack of good software--it's the lack of good documentation that really hurts. I've heard some people here mention before that they were having their tech writing students perform projects that involved writing such documentation. I'd like to start a discussion here about the ethics involved here; is this a form of "service learning" that can be justified by the same rhetoric used to justify having students work in community service projects?
