That latter award is especially nice in conjunction with the former. To win Collin's contest, all I did was write this tantalizing remark:
By the way, hasn't anyone made comment #2000 yet?
On the face of it, that might not seem like a comment that required a lot of thinking. But, if you trace the associations, Latour style, you'll see that it required a number of actors and movements (my blogroll, something [the trace of which is now lost] triggering my memory, etc.). Many associations had to come together in just the right way to make it possible.
And isn't that thinking? The bringing together of associations? I would say so.
At any rate, accepting the "Thinking Blogger" meme requires that I list five blogs that make me think. Well, friends, that's a tall order, since so many blogs in fact make me think. It's not like I'm filling up my blogroll with dross. So, I've decided to concentrate on a subset of bloggers, those who *currently* find themselves pursuing a graduate degree. I'm ever grateful for the opportunity to be in on cutting edge thinking, which (if we believe Kuhn, and I kinda do) happens more often among new members of a field than among long timers. And I'm also focusing on blogs that I've been reading for awhile--cause, you know, they've had more time to get me thinking. So, here's my list:
Earth Wide Moth
Machina Memorialis
Schizzes and Flows
And, ok, I might be biased, but they make me think, in all kinds of ways:
m2h blogging
Wind Farm
