I like blogger personally. Wordpress probably works fine too. I think blogs published through blogger, which is owned by google, will probably place higher on google searches.

Speaking of blogs… do you have any suggestions as to where online is the best place to create one?

All in all, I really liked your article. I hadn’t thought much about being searched online and immediately googled myself (not much there but XC results… and some forum comments) to make sure my name was pretty clear. Anyway, thanks for writing interesting stuff for us! : )

My asking for an apology was that he was in a position of power and that he, as editor of the Forum, was being indirectly subsidized by my fee. He also censored me and made me look like a homophobe. When I asked him to apologize for censoring me and working to guarantee that the Forum remained well, a Forum, he sent me a flippant email. I have it all recorded and would be happy to give it to you, if you email me.

Thanks!

You bring up a fair point, but my argument was that even it it were satirical, it’s still disgusting to have a party that celebrates a regime that’s responsible for the deaths of well over 100 million souls. At the time, I wondered what a Nazi party would look like and even wrote a satirical piece about it. It’s funny, but it would certainly get me in hot water if it got out!

As for a public event, it most certainly was. It was loud and raucous.

So, no an apology will not be forthcoming. Really, what is the modern day fascination with apologies anyways?

It’s essential a scaled down version of facebook where you create a page with basic information about you–residence, job, links, etc–just enough to make sure you can be identified and seen in whatever light you choose.

I just call em like I see them. If you’re a public figure on campus, you open yourself up to criticism. Tis the nature of being a public figure.

I NEVER blog about private conversations or people just going about their business. I do blog sometimes about arguments made in public. But really if you’re trying to ban trays on campus — as one girl was — and you’re running for CMC office, then you’re public figures and fair game.

Juxtapose that with the savage attacks made by anonymous cowards on my now ex girlfriend and you’ll see the difference. If the Left wants to be taken seriously on campus, it should do its best to have a Sister Souljah moment with the loons that comment anonymously.
