I have been busy, but I'm not exactly sure with what. Been searching for jobs, working out some difficulties at work, eating pies, playing Warcraft III, playing Major's Mask, reading about postmodernism, playing chess (and losing), hanging out with some peoples, going places, breathing in and then breathing out.
I applied for this job that I think is pretty much the sweetest thing. It involves using the Sakai Framework (a community-source (pretty much open-source for a special community: higher education) tools and services aggregation framework for online collaboration and learning environments) to build Web Services for all major UM Library technology services such as citation linkers and so on. The position requires a Java programmer/analyst to build Web Services, integrate them with the Sakai Framework and build a face for the services. I hope I get the job.
In writing the cover letter for this job, I had a couple of things going through my head:
It's pretty much the coolest thing to get together with a seemingly infinite number of friends from all over the world to work on a project and then offer your work to absolutely anyone in the world for absolutely free.
also:
I am a person who cares about people, knowledge, learning and individuality (art and creativity). I realized the skills I have to incorporate these passions into my life are varied but center around gathering, processing and presenting information and connecting diverse individuals to that information, making it real for them.
