I thought for sometime about what to say here...a mix of professional and personal information...so let's begin with the professional: I am exploring the relationships between (1) culture, (2) information and communication technologies (ICTs), such as cell phones, the Internet and computers, and (3) the economic development / empowerment of communities and individuals. I think participatory action research (PAR) is important so I joined a PAR graduate student group at the University of South Florida, where I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Anthropology. I am also interested in micro-finance, alleviating poverty, and efforts to address disparities in access to ICTs for people here and everywhere else.
Here is Tampa, Florida USA and since it is mostly sunny, I have troubling finding excuses not to play football (soccer) with friends, but I keep coming up with "I have to study," but they don't seem to be buying it. Thank you for stopping by and do leave your comments about Anthropology 2.0, the discipline of anthropology in general or a witticism that inspires those around you. We can all use a little inspiration from time to time. Lastly, I am searching for a dynamic internshipSpanish thislanguage coming summer thatprogram deals withfor mythe researchsummer interests.2008. If you know any organizationof thata Igood shouldplace consider(that's exploring,affordable) domestically or internationally, then please post me a comment below. Thank you.

Witticism of the month, Tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember, involve me and I will understand. (Attributed to both Confucius specifically and as well as a "Chinese proverb" generally).
