Mutual Help Desk

                   Mutual support societies load and unload information for public use. Within and across social boundaries, we now have the business of social media. As deliverers of content, we journalists are librarians. We must have ethics. Textbooks, documentation, maps or instructions, we all want information. Let us be more entertaining for you.

                   Someone, or something in the Ukraine likes my blog. Like when someone from Russia accessed about a thousand page views that first year, all from Russia only. When I checked the traffic sources I was directed through web sites selling seduction lessons using games theory, in English, to Russia. I'm now accessed for the related articles by people using the Keywords; Images Porno Zenophile, Zenophile Game Porn and Porno Zenophilie, going straight to my posts on the international marketing of pornography using games theory. And now my blog gets tapped several times a day by people sharing these post even in France, the same posts. I am teaching methods that are rather obscure. But this is just an experiment, so thank you whoever you are. Some of what is being accessed is Psychic Reading Technology, Alternative Medicine and their traditions. I don't expect anyone to agree with me, pro or con.

                   Information is power, (If we can read the instructions,) processing computer information is very costly. Money controls the access to the power of processing. For some a Mutual Help Desk is called a "Learning Dream," (Thank you, JANE ADAMS.) The poverty of information is fed by our consumer culture. Most people have no idea how slow the internet is here in the states. Our libraries are little islands of solace and information. In the computer age we all need virtual librarians. I know what I need from a help desk. I want information, and I want it here by the time I come back. I still read big thick heavy books that can't be read on the scroll. Ever. Information, you rule.

                   I like pure math, books, old movies, art history, progressive rock, and long walks on the beach, etc. Personalized media is now taken for granted. We all have preferences and that adds up to a lot of personal data.  Google runs personal profiling algorithms for us. I like advertising targeted towards me. Search engines use hierarchies for selection that have been changed recently, (S. E. O. simplifies searches by classification priority) and as a result my direct keyword searches are much harder today. The mobile revolution is also very difficult and time consuming. Smaller screens squeeze out content. I know because before my big monitor, I didn't know what my graphics looked like. Most of us  have made love with a computer. I like not having to squint with one eye. Why should we be ashamed. I feel bad for my friends who have all gone mobile, the help desk is tiny.
