Well, i have been a bit busy so i need to get back into blogging. Last week's question i WILL get to, sooner or later, but this week the focus is on how digital media affects my life. It's funny that, because i read the question at the begining of the week, although i haven't written about it, i have been on the lookout for when i am using it. Well of course there is the cell phones, computer, tv, all that.. but specifically i had 2 instances when digital media really helped me out.
Number one is for my thesis i am working on a Caldera in the white mountains, you don't have to know what that means, just that because i was working on it i needed data about it. Well i found this great database CCDB i believe, where they are slowly but surely compiling all old and new data on caldera's and liking it to a map. Very cool, and very helpful-- maybe when i finish my thesis my information will go up on this database too!
Number 2 was for the weather, this weekend i have a show i am suppose to go to, kind of like a craft show but for rocks, set up the same way though, with part of it outside. Well i have been keeping an eye out because in 2 weeks i go to Texas, so i need to watch the weather to plan, but also for this weekend because i am supposed to be outside, and i will be doing a lot of driving too. It is so cool that you can just go online and get an idea of what the weather will be a week from now, in a completely separate part of the country. It helps if the weather man is right though, haha.
OK well that's all for now, i will post again soon!
