It seems particular to my generation (or perhaps it is ego-centric of us to think so) to be on the cusp, stuck between the old and new. I am as afraid of and uncomfortable with change as any human being. I suspect that these exercises in Personal Learning Environments is symptomatic of much greater trends. I don't know, as much as I like Laurie Anderson, I just love museums. I always have.
