My voyages through the blogosphere

As of late, it seems I've been trying to think of any excuse not to revise, the latest in a line of procrastination tools has been to sit at the computer for hours on end on the Internet. The other day i was "blog hopping", you know, when you visit one of the usual blogs, then you click on a link which leads you to another blog, then you find another link which seems interesting, thus the cycle continues until you realize you have wasted a whole afternoon "blog hopping", You simultaneously realize that you could have spent that time in a more productive manner i.e. revising and suddenly all those blogs you read don't seem so interesting anymore. Although i did find two blogs which i found very interesting and highly entertaining and would happily spend a whole afternoon reading/watching them.

1. Ummah Films A kind of video blog, very entertaining particularly the reminder videos , i love the simplicity of it, just one guy and his camera. That's it. No special effects. No fancy editing. Simple.
2. Rate your students I'm sure everyone's been on a blog where teachers complain about their students. Normally these are high school students, sometimes primary school students, even college students on the odd occasion. However i never expected to find a sight where university lecturers complain about their students, yet it beats them all, it's done with a certain wit and humour that can only be achieved once you've completed a PhD and a few extra degrees on the side. One thing that amazed me was that how much influence American lecturers had over their students grade, many of the complaints were about students literally begging for the lecturer to change their grade as if it's the done thing in America??!! i think the only say my lecturers get in my grade is that the write the exam paper that's it, they don't mark it, a computer does that. And besides if your not going to turn up to any of your lectures or hand in your assignment on time then perhaps, just perhaps you might deserve the rubbish grade that you've got??
