Comments on: Time Out… Real life sneaks into the blog. http://davecormier.com/edblog/2006/04/14/time-out-real-life-sneaks-into-the-blog/ Education, post-structuralism and the rise of the machines Wed, 16 May 2012 04:34:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Google “Your Name” = Your Resume… or Your Life at Learning Blog http://davecormier.com/edblog/2006/04/14/time-out-real-life-sneaks-into-the-blog/comment-page-1/#comment-473 Google “Your Name” = Your Resume… or Your Life at Learning Blog Sun, 16 Apr 2006 03:39:26 +0000 http://davecormier.com/edblog/?p=52#comment-473 [...] Two podcasts I listened to this weekend brought up the concept of Googling to find information about someone, especially during job searches.  NCQ Talk’s Kris went as far as to say that Googling your name could be your actual resume. At Weblogs, Wikis, and Feeds — Oh My! they also discussed putting information online so that when you are Googled your writing, podcasts, etc. come up as opposed to what someone else wrote about you. This mixes into our students using MySpace and other social networks that are open and share who you are with other people.  How as we work on the web, we create trails of information about ourselves.  How this will effect the job search process.  How I am finding it so hard to separate my professional from personal life. I have lots of interesting feelings about this. Blogging, Webcasting, and Podcasting are amazing media and have really allowed me to get to know many folks around the blogosphere.  Dave and Jeff at EdTechTalk both shared personal pieces this week that made me feel like I know them better, even though I don’t really ‘know’ them.  I guess it’s similar to the way people feel so familiar with their news anchors or other familiar television actors.  But with the Read/Write web, you can actually start a two way conversation and share back.

Bonnie is an amazing writer. I felt along with your past year as I read. Not sure what else to say here -- I'm wordless. Silence can be the best answer at times. My family keeps me sane, although it makes blogging and participating in Webcasts difficult -- except after they are all asleep:-) You can see them at www.ragonefamily.net. Thanks for all of your inspiration. - Alex Dave,
