While I don't recommend that the average doctoral candidate spends lots of time on web walkabouts, I do suggest that once in a while dipping ones intellectual quill pen into the writings and ideas of those outside of our general field of interest is enlivening. After a hard day at work, and while facing a long night of hitting the books in the latest class or typing away on ideas that run around your head in circles, a little adventure into the ideas of others can be good for us.
If you need this type of fix, below are a couple of pots (posts?) to dip into:
- Since bias is inherent and the bane of research you may be interested to see what these folks are writing about: http://www.overcomingbias.com/welcome.html .
- I don't know what web browser you are using, but I love Firefox. If that is your browser of choice you may be interested in some of the tools/plugins mentioned at: http://www.seosmarty.com/firefox-plugins/ . It might not be a bad idea for this growing community to discuss web tools and see if there could be consensus on what works. While a ways in the future, I will ePostIt the idea for a later time, more readers etc.
All the best for today,
Alana
