The Ladder: Infrequent Intelligence from the NCSDO Staff
Subscribe to the LadderIf you don't read this blog...
Before alerting the SPCA, please know that Typo remains unharmed. The threat is disingenuous; but what other content could compete with this single dramatic image to bring visitors to the Ladder?
By the way, if harming a defenseless (albeit steely eyed and imaginary) dog to jolt a readership seems a familiar tactic, then you are likely remembering a 1973 edition of National Lampoon. The black-and-white dog made for an easy connection.
But back to worthwhile content . . . and blogs. Others do a fine job dispensing wisdom about higher education, communications, design, food, sports—the stuff that interests us. And then there are the professional listserves, where the idea of information doubling every 10 years is already obsolete.
We made attempts.
We ended up with the dog.
From time to time, we will find ways to salt this blog with thoughts on those topics. Mostly, however, we'll try to keep this area like Typo—a little off balance but, we hope, entertaining and more or less relevant for those likely to stumble upon the site.
But for now, there's a dog that demands an apology . . .
