Last week’s holiday meant a light posting schedule. Fear not, however: ProfHacker returns at full speed Monday morning. At full speed–just like a bird hitting a window. (Sorry: I’m always a bit gloomy during the semester’s penultimate week.) Last week’s posts included:
- Nels’s look at grooming: “Growing a Beard for Productivity“ (Also see: Whiskerino 2009)
- Billie’s overview of “The Challenges of Being a New Faculty Member (First Semester)”
- Amy’s reminder that Google is here to help: “Lost a Paper You Wrote? Gmail to the Rescue!“
- Julie’s suggestion that if you’re “Considering Open Office? You Should.”
- In standing posts, Billie offered strategies for leftover turkey, and I pointed to a new Twitter-curated journal, Digital Humanities Now.
The semester’s almost over, probably, so let’s be safe out there!
