Welcome! Wikis are websites that everyone can build together. It's easy!

The Quest Begins Here (or at least its chronicling does)

Ravings of the Doomed & Delusional


Well, I knew with a face like mine that I was destined for fame (or infamy), and indeed, I've been found! The proof is in the pudding, as they say, and since you're here and have proven me right, I think I'll go enjoy some. Butterscotch pudding, now that's my favorite. Since I'm always grateful for an opportunity to consume that which is the most glorious of amorphous gelatinous desserts, I extend my thanks to you for visiting.

If you're wondering what this is all about, allow me to explain. One of my classes during my first semester at UAT was a Futures Studies course called, "Foresight Development". It's taught by a really enthusiastic futurist who is actually the President of the Accelration Studies Foundation, a non-profit organization whose aim is to promote an understanding of the ways in which our world is accelerating and engender useful foresight and planning skills in individuals and organizations. His name is John Smart. This wiki is a result of taking that course, as creating our own "futures wiki" is the final assignment in the class. This page is meant to help me develop foresight skills by keeping track of my goals and progress, career options, and even just cool shit that I find coming down the pipe.

As you can probably tell, the site's a little threadbare at the moment. But never fear, my faithful compatriots! It is under construction (pardon my dust, or gas, or anything else unpleasant that I may emit while in your presence), and will be ready for your perusal and contributions any day now. My thanks for your patience, it shall be rewarded (depending greatly upon how loose your definition of the term, "reward" happens to be)!

P.S.
This little fancy over here is called a "widget". Widgets are things that you can embed within a page, such as news feeds, photo slide shows, or even chat windows. This one, from meebo, happens to be a chat window.

I figured out how to make it a group chat window, so hopefully, if it works right, then anyone visiting this site can talk to everyone else visiting as well as me (whether I'm on this site or not) in real time. This window may not be operational if I'm not connected to meebo, but I'm fairly sure you can still leave me a message.

However, if you see, "Steve_Olender" or "nantucket.friar" is online, then you can type right into that little window and it will start an Instant Message conversation with me, and anyone else who happens to be here! Nothing to download or install, and it might even fly low enough to get past the radar at your work. Oh, and you don't have to stick with the chat name "Guest(impossibly long string of numbers)". If you click just above the place where you type, you should be able to edit your chat name to whatever you want.

Happy chatting!
