What next?
I have been slow to post since the London bombing last week. I just had a difficult time deciding how to handle the news. It was shocking but even more horrible was the sense of here we go again. The repetition, the horrid loss of lives, the senselessness of things---I don't know what else to say.I'm at the University of Virginia this week for a NINES conference. More on this during the week, but I was happy to hear that the British participants were fine and able to travel into the conference.
While much has been written on the blasts, the links from this site offer a great insite into how blogs have created a way to think about and share information on the explosions. I think that the individuals who are blogging their reactions give a truer sense of the moment than what we tend to see on mainstream media.
