Communities Virtual and Embodied

I'm somebody who spends an incredible amount of time doing email; it's a liability of my job. I've never spent much time in the bloggosphere, as a reader or a writer. I love sitting around the table here at DMAC, with everyone working away, folks solving problems collaboratively as they emerge. I'm gonna do my best to give this a real try to see what the virtual community that is produced via the blogging offers. I'll be trying to find my voice in this environment. Right now, I just feel awkward, which is ok. Means I'm in a position to learn rather than perform.
