I gotta say the Google Gargantuan isn’t impressing me these days. There’s just something about a link to an “article” about math anxiety that has big fat google links on top and the barest skeleton of a web page template… oh, and there are three more of the same article with slightly different templates, and […]

… It will probably suffice for fixing typos (tho’ I’m not sure any more) but… I copy an address and paste that into the “link” (not a relative link), and it just doesn’t work. That exact same pasted address *does* work, actually, pasted into an address bar. Started my animation class today — probably didn’t […]

However, my stomach did some flippy floppies listening to this rah-rah video on youtube: http://vihart.com/blog/announcement-khan-academy/.
