I'm a lab rat!

I just started to google to see if I could find references to my knitting blog, to see if anyone was reading it. I found a couple of cool things.

There's my blog's "value" as if it were traded on a stock market. I found this site a while back, but just now noticed that I'm indexed on it. It's kind of a fun concept.

And then I found this. I can't decide if it's weird or cool, but my blog is being used as an example in some sort of web writing class at a university in Minnesota. I'm flattered I think?

Is it wrong that this has now made me feel as if I must produce (more knitting, more writing) because I'm being studied?

er...shouldnt the prof ASK you first??

I think it would be funny to write an entry to the students...without emailing the prof first and see if you get any comments from them!

I think s/he probably didn't want to taint the results by letting me know. Plus, it is publicly available on the web.

I did think of doing a little shoutout to Bemidji State U. though. That would be way funny. Maybe I'll say hi before I go on vacation next weekend. :-)
