Late for techno class

So today on Outreach, I had a pretty rowdy bunch of students. I also had a student try to argue with me for about five minutes about how he read a book and it said the Powhatan Indians killed other Powhatans to eat for food and I was wrong when I said the Powhatan were predominantly peaceful. According to him, the most important animal to the Eastern Woodland Indians was the human. Due to our large size and little hair, it was better to make clothing out of human skin than deer skin because it would have required less work for the women...where do they get this stuff from??? I wrote my thesis on Pre-Columbian decapitation and I am pretty sure Powhatan cannibalism would have come up in something that I read. After I made it back to the hotel, I did some research about Powhatan cannibalism and most sites just referred to the Jamestown starving time incident and other cultures sacrificing individuals. I am pretty sure this is how this particular student envisons life in a Powhatan village...

Anyhow, on to the assignment for week 5.
The concept behind Delicious.com is great, but it is not for me. I rarely bookmark anything, and when I do I usually forget about my bookmarks. I possibly would have used the site for wedding planning though since I did bookmark a kazillion pages and tried to organize them into folders. Tagging would have been good for that since a photo with pink flowers could have gone into the color scheme folder, the centerpiece folder, the possible flowers to use folder, the different type of vases to use for flowers folder, etc. I have no need though to access my bookmarks from another computer though.

I thought that Technorati.com was going to be playing some old-school Detroit techno music when I went to the site. I doubt that I will use this site, it was fun to browse though, I did enjoy looking through the photo section, but I do not see myself using it on a regular basis. Again, this site is a neat idea.
