As a fourth year doctoral candidate, in addition to having completed comprehensive examinations and prospectus and working on the dissertation, my thoughts are also turning towards the job market and securing that first academic position. This purpose of this blog is to chronicle the trials and tribulations of completing my Ph.D. and finding that first job.

This Is Important!

This is an important issue that I don't know a great deal about, but this is a great little video that appears to have been created by a young man concerned about the influence of big multinational corporations on the Internet.

It's five minutes or more, but it is well worth watching.

Wow! Great video. This is something I will probably have my Multimedia Design class watch and discuss. Thanks Michael.

No problem, although I can't really take credit... It was posted by someone else and just happened to be in my Bloglines as I was going through it the other day.
