Richard, I shut off comments to that September entry because it was attracting a lot of spam... but I'll add this text for you.
Rachel, I've noticed that all the mail I get from students who use hotmail accounts is marked SPAM and is dumped in a "quarantine" directory... does this happen to everyone, or to all professors?
Recently on this blog there was a good discussion about e-mail names.
From time to time someone on campus will take one paragraph of text, work it up into a fancy poster, and them mail it as a graphic or word processor file to hundreds of people at school... that's a huge waste of resources, when the content of that poster could simply be typed into the body of an e-mail message.
Well, those are my pet peeves at the moment... I don't know if any of them are momentous enough to inspire a column.
Some of my EL 309 students have been writing about videogames, and what a time sink they can be. (Almost as bad as blogs!)
Can't for the life of me figure out how to send an e mail msg. to you. So I'm leaving this comment. I found your Sept. post about blogging & fair use & wanted to make you aware that I'd written 3 posts on this topic:

If the topic still actively interests you perhaps you could add a trackback to one of my articles or mention them in a new post?
Thanks.
