This post was long time coming. It is the obligatory post for a blogger who […]

Jimmy Wales that guy who founded a certain Wikipedia comes on the Colbert Report and makes for interesting conversation. He talks about vandalism (more specifically the issue of Colbert and the Elephant article) among other things.

So, the semester is finally inching towards a close and the usual desperate, ’scrambling for getting things done’ process has been well and truly begun. Tons of exciting things like exams, assignments, project proposals, project presentations, report submissions and the like dot my calendar.
