We don’t often step into the fray, but one of our clients posted an interesting opinion on Congress’ version of economic stimulus.

As a small business, we feel the financial pinch too. Please take the time to read and comment on their perspective.

Andy Chiles (The Argus) reports about Professor Tara Brabazon, from the University of Brighton, prohibiting students from citing Google and Wikipedia as sources.

She has dubbed the phenomenon ‘The University of Google’. Prof Brabazon said: “The education world has pursued new technology with an almost evangelical zeal and it is time to take a step back and give proper consideration of how we use it. “Too many students don’t use their own brains enough. We need to bring back the important values of research and analysis.”

I tend to agree with her premise. Some of the students we see as interns probably haven’t seen the inside of a library.

In addition to getting back to basics, we think something ought to be done about penmanship as well.
