It has been a long time since I have posted. Perhaps it was just that I had not got into the habit of writing regularly. In the intervening days, several things have happened, including an internship at Google and finishing my research proposal. Since yesterday, I have started using index cards to organize my thoughts. So far, it is proving to be very useful! For several things that I have read in the recent past, I intend to go back and create notes for all over again. It is nice to have stuff written on cards that I can shuffle around and reorganize. An important criterion that seems to make this endeavor successful and useful is having a decent set of bins into which to put cards. Recently I was working on the potential structure of my final dissertation, and the chapters are what I am using, more or less, for the bins I am feeling a little disoriented while writing this and I am really writing only to get back into the flow. A more sensible, better-planned entry will be shortly forthcoming.
