Anthropology: the year in review

by Alex

I normally don’t go out of my way to point out Lorenz Khazaleh’s great “anthropology.info”:http://www.antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/ website because I assume by now that everyone already knows about it and is reading it along with me. Howevever, at the start of the new year I thought I would make an exception in this case and second Oneman’s “reccomendation”:http://savageminds.org/2006/01/06/the-year-in-review/ of Lorenz’s “year in anthropology roundup”:http://antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/index.php?p=1587&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1. It’s not only a great over view of what happened, but it’s also a reminder of all of the amazing thing that happened in the anthropological noosphere. It’s just crazy, daisy.

Although Lorenz intended the post to make the point that “2005 can be characterized as the year anthropology finally became visible on the internet” I hope he decides to make it an annual feture of his blog, that we will read more of them for many years to come, and that all of them are full of as many signs of collaboration and community as this current one.

Now: when are we going to get around to the year characterized by a sudden and uncontrollable growth of interest in gradcore Jedi fan fiction?
