One Response to Tech News Today 397: Readin’ The Facebook

  1. Hamish MacEwan on December 22, 2011 at 12:39 am

    With regard to Becky Worley’s teasing and the show title:

    “Over the course of a single day I engage in a number of different activities for which the word “reading” doesn’t seem to do justice: I scan my social networks, I check my email, I review student work, I browse articles and books related to my research, and I engage in deep sustained examination of a single text. Each of these tasks require a different frame of mind and, increasingly, different technologies. To simplify matters, I will talk about only three types of reading, each of which encompasses several of these reading-related activities: scanning, browsing and devouring.”

  • @WizChic I loved it! Felt like a whole season in one episode.
  • @oldman916 Lots of headlines mis-stating that the release date is Oct. 25. It's the media that's confused.
  • Frame Rate begins soon, right now we're talking about squirrels and pigeons in the TWiT chat room http://t.co/KgxxBdQb
