According to the New York Times (December 23, 2007), “tumblelog” is “a website or blog that is collection of brief links to, quotes from, or comments about things a person has encountered while web browsing. It is a sort of digital commonplace book.” Actually I thought that was what most blogs were–almost an annotated my del.icio.us. Anyway, methinks “Digitized Heart” is a tumblelog.
So here’s one encounter that I recently happened upon, courtesy of Nick Brown’s blog: The Radical Midwest Culture Corridor.
The RMCC includes folks from Indiana to Minnesota, including Illinois and Wisconsin. It seems like there are rich possibilities for connecting across the region and reinforcing each other with new ideas and energy. Hallelujah!
