Well, the holidays are here, so you know what that means … Jingle the Reindeer is nearly here! [Image credit: animalcrossing.neoseeker.com] Seeing Jingle and getting some awesome new sectional couches from him is the perfect way to culminate an entire semester spent studying Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I’ve sure learned a lot about the game […]
For this blog, we do not simply write, we immerse ourselves in our community and integrate useful tools which together make up a textual ecology. By noting what I did throughout composing my recent blog post, I can see how these tools have changed the way I create blog posts and even come up with […]
Back in October I wrote about How I Met Your Mother’s International Suit Up Day, a fan made holiday in favor of beloved suit upper Barney Stinson. Research for the post took me in several different directions which could not all be addressed in the “holiday” blog post. Although I had known previously about the […]
Most people remember that great scene in Office Space when Peter, Micheal, and Samir take their malfunctioning fax machine out to a deserted field and absolutely destroy it.

To give something back to the community, I thought I might create a QR code for others to scan, but then I realized I’m no artist. So, because we’ve learned about fanfiction and its purposes and implications, I thought […]

A few months ago, I began research on MusclePharm’s Arnold Series brand line. My original goal was to see if people on twitter using the hashtag arnoldseries […]
Over the last few months, I’ve watched how the #DnD tag was used on Twitter, and how gamers used the platform. I’d like to give something back to the community. So, here’s a dungeon I drew up. Feel free to take it, populate it, key it up, and share with your friends and your local […]
