Introducing Culture Thursday

   everyday 

"The reason one writes isn't the fact he wants to say something. He writes because he has something to say."
~F. Scott Fitzgerald~

After some thought, I have decided to move up to every day posting!  This is quite a commitment given my workload at this time, but I feel that it is do-able with a little forethought and commitment.  I will be using my Tuesday and Thursday posts to open my information mine to you, dear reader.  I will post only the absolute best finds that I have encountered in my search for truth, culture, and knowledge.  Today I want to share with you the site of a philosopher named Ravi Zacharias.  Dr. Zacharias is in my mind one of the most lucid and eloquent reasoners alive today.  He speaks from a classically trained philosophic viewpoint, and comes to some startling conclusions about the trends of culture and where we are going as a people.  His site has made available for free a massive archive covering a plethora of relevant cultural topic.  I have never heard arguments stated so logically, so eloquently, in all of my searching.  check him out!

INTERACT: Breaking down the barrier beween the reader and the author



Well, its the end of my first month of consistent blogging. I must say that I am enjoying it quite a lot thus far. The ability to voice ideas and be read is extremely cathartic to me, and I have begun to anticipate each posting. One aspect of blogging that I have grown to really love is the immediate and instant contact with the reader. I find that this instant feedback refreshes me, and inspires me to write well. What I want to do with this post is get even more personal in my interaction with my readers. To that end, I have placed a twitter widget and a IM widget on FreshSqueezed. So please, feel free to drop me a line. Complain, comment, trade ideas and opinions, or just say hi. I would love to hear from you. This to me is one of the most exciting aspects of digital publishing. not only for ones voice to be heard, but to build relationships with ones readership. how exciting!
