While there are many credible and scholarly websites, there are just as many websites that aren’t credible and are questionable. While exploring the CarpSoft Corporate Solutions wesbite. It didn’t take me very long to see that this was a hoax website. I was reading through the pages I couldn’t even understand what they were talking about. What does the company do? What was their product? What is a karoo? Is like a yahoo.

Just another WordPress.com weblog. Feed Questions… February 5, 2009. 8212; nickiebrock @ 4:51 pm. I must admit I had a really hard time picking which question to respond to. Mostly, I just wanted to talk about the novel. I am going to go with the question that really brought me to a place in the novel that I enjoyed.

Just another WordPress.com weblog. April 6, 2009. 8212; nickiebrock @ 8:45 pm. Thanks to my neighbor Lindsey, I now understand what memes are. The internet phenomenon is anything that catches on as an inside joke or part of pop culture. Memes are pretty interesting. It seems that memes are taking over our lives. Memes are everywhere.

After looking at Sheila Pree Brights images on her website of young adults posing with an American Flag, I came to the realization that all the images are alike in that each individual is attempting to portray what the American flag represents to them as an individual. I really like the one with the soldier. I just love the way that Bright left all the images open for personal interpretation. Notify me of ne...
