Friday Varia and Quick Hits

Here are some quick thoughts on a cool NoDak Friday:

• Some folks live more interesting lives than others.
• I really H. Jenkins' idea of "spreadable" media.  I need to pencil in time to read the entire 8 part (!) discussion of it on his blog.
• It will be cool to follow the work at the Berlin-Kent Ostia Excavations again this summer.

• Chuck Jones continues to produce useful online content.  Check out his Ancient World Online for the latest on open access material for scholars of antiquity.

That's all for today... have a good weekend.
