writing and computers go hand-in-hand

I realize more and more everyday how much the writing I do is connected to the computer. A prime example would be this very blog. One of my minors is in the business and technical writing field, another is in information technology. These are two fields that were once very separate and distinct, but on Friday I was given the same assignment in two different classes. One class was in the BTW minor, the other class was an IT class. The assignment is to create and build my own website. While some of the details are different, the overall goal is to put myself and my ideas out there in cyberspace. That just shows us how much of an influence the Internet has on our lives and if our ideas are out there, we will be heard (even if it is in written form).
