looking at the dew,

laughing as spider webs swayed out of focus…

and this afternoon, digital scholar of note danah Boyd Twittered from the Knight Commission gathering in Aspen; “listening to madeleine albright talk about her pins. today: a spider since we are talking about the web. powerful women make me drool.”

I Skyped my boss Marc, who then took a video of Ms. Albright and said pin, posted it on Vimeo and Knight Blog, and I thought I’d share it with you:

Spiders often align with powerful, supernatural bodies, and I wonder what the spider means Ms. Albright’s mood was today. While Ms. Frizzle remains my fashion icon, Ms. Albright now joins her as my accessory role model.

All of which is to say, I’m a bit starstruck today and readying for the Perseids meteor showers tonight… (find your local star chart here)…
