The VLCA gave me a Blackberry. Right now, under the excuse of "learning how to use my new tool", I have been looking at things like LJ, webmail, Blogger, etc to find out what I can and can't do.

I can't do anything requiring java, run flash cartoons - HomestarRunner so far, I haven't tried, say, the Project Runway* site - or, for some reason, log into LJ. I can read my umich email, read and comment on LJ, and log into and post in Blogger.

I feel like such a yuppie.

Update: I also cannot get this blog to load. I wonder if it is because of the underscores in the URL, but that seems stupid.

*Did anyone else get into that show? The [second part of the] season finale was on last night. I have also been listening to Tim Gunn's podcasts at work because they are entertaining and the only such thing I know of that doesn't have copyright issues. I like the show because the contestants need skill, talent, and desire that the vast majority of people don't have and the demeanor of the show is very professional. There is drama, of course, but there aren't temper tantrums on the runway.
