Blog IV: The Struggle

4/17/2013

The struggle continues. Groans permeate the classroom as we dive into our research, finding at times that the pool of singular ideological convergence can indeed be empty as we plunge into hard concrete. The wikipedia group struggles with the difficulty characteristic to public source knowledge as they compete with other contributors on their website. Additions have been both helpful and irrelevant. The twitter group continues to provide our legions of followers with updates on our small breakthroughs and various difficulties. The core of our project, the research engine, churns forward, logging hours of research, often with no particular gain. Despite this rather somber evaluation, if progress is to be measured in terms of finding new directions and crossing off dead ends, we are indeed making progress. The erratic magnetic fields guiding our intellectual compasses are beginning to stabilize; we are finding a singular heading. Now we must reassemble our fleet from the strong of gales of uncertainty and reach that golden coast of intellectual expansion.
