Blogosphere Enlightenment: Web 2.0 Update September 16, 2008
We would like to think that everyone out there on the Internet wants to read about college education and learning, but we realize that most people out there are more interested in lifestyles, sports, politics, news, and some of the more exciting things to gossip about. Because we are people too, we will spend some time telling you about the things we have read and found interesting. Each week, we will share the top stories from around the Internet.
Our core focus will remain on connecting prospective students with accredited educational institutions to complete higher education, but we also want to share information using the tools provided us by today’s web standards. You may choose to read, skim, or entirely ignore our Blogosphere Enlightenment: Web 2.0 Updates. Have fun, and let us know if you find something worth following. Better yet, comment on our posts and share links to things you enjoy! We’re happy to include them unless you abuse our comment areas, or spam them in any way.

Love her or hate her, our girl Jennifer Lopez has accomplished some great things in her life and career. Most recently J-Lo, wife of Marc Anthony, set out to complete her newest goal following the birth of twins in late February 2008. She finished the Nautica Malibu Triathlon on Sunday in 2 hours, 23 minutes, and 38.8 seconds, raising $127,000 for Children’s Hospital of L.A. in the process.

This is an interesting subject to tackle, and caught our attention as this one is directly related to our sites content and topics. The California Court of Appeal held session yesterday in Martinez v. Regents: the most significant issue [in this case] is whether California’s authorization of in-state tuition to illegal aliens violates a federal law, title 8 of the United States Code (U.S.C.) section 1623, which provides as pertinent.

I must first admit that I am a Denver Native, and an avid Denver Broncos fan so I clearly thought that the Denver Broncos should have won that game on Sunday. Anyone out there who is an NFL fan, or simply a football fan for that matter, may have had some serious issues with the way that the game ended.

How I Saw It: Broncos Beat Chargers 39-38 - Britney Back At The Dance Studio!!
Last but not least, once again making headlines, and giving us something to talk about at the office is our girl Britney Spears. With an upcoming album release scheduled for December this year, Brit has been spotted at the International Dance Academy in Hollywood today. I personally think she looks great, and anxiously look forward to a positive album release to get a healthy, and radiant, Britney back on the scene just like the old days.
