Wouldn’t calculus and organic chemistry be more fun for the summer?

No, he’s not the only one. It depends, though, on whether you’re looking for people with blogs or people with journals. I believe that there are quite a few journals, but not so many blogs.

What’s the difference between blogs and journals? We are looking for any writings by Ephs. Please pass on any URLs of which you are aware.

Blogs are more… impersonal, generally? Or they at least have a tendency to talk about things other than the writer. Links, etc. Journals are more, shall we say, navel-gazing. Maybe that’s just a personal opinion, though.
Anyway, there’s a Williams class of ‘09 community on LiveJournal at http://www.livejournal.com/community/williams09

David, I (for instance) have a journal that’s probably not too hard to find… but it’s locked down and only accessible by a select few with accounts for some VERY obvious reasons — potential employers being only one of them. Xanga, for example, lets you open your posts only to certain other registered users. AFAIK, other journal sites have similar measures.
In contrast, with blogs, there’s no “trusted readership” system that’s nearly so easy to create and administer. I mean, you can theoretically create password(s) and username(s) for a protected directory, but there’s nothing to stop anybody from sharing it, not to mention the relative difficulty in adding and removing users.
