serendipity

this is sort of related to carter's last article on "why blogging is important." the fact that blogging randomly helped some old high school sweethearts unite after 47 years is awesome-and serendipitously random.

i had my own serendipity the other day, also thanks to technology. i usually delete the digester, but i decided to read this particular one. there was a message from an alum who works at procter and gamble (the company that deals with a zillion different products from pringles to fabreze) and she was saying she was available to help any pomona person looking for an internship or job at her place. its was exactly what i have been looking for. it combines marketing, consulting, and advertising, and the company is amazingly socially conscious. (See their website.) basically, the social tech use that is the digester helped me out just like blogging helped beverley and bootsie in carter's article. i love the internet!
