Adventures in Associate Instruction

So I'm an AI for a class on Social Networks.

I managed to lead a discussion on how Livejournal was taken over by Russians, how much the RP scene on Tumblr confuses me, and why Facebook is going to take over the world. With a slight detour into the Xbox Live community by a couple of gamer kids in the class, which I mentioned something about gaming communities before networked games. Also DeviantArt talk with a couple art kids.

I'm not too bad at this leading discussion thing. Then again, if I hadn't spent so much of my youth on the internet... XD

That sounds like a lot of fun. It's good you managed to engage so many different groups in the discussion.

Because the Internet is all discussions.

Refuse to be unconvinced of this notion. XD

I'm happy for you. :)
