Today, while studying for my Media and Society Midterm exam in the fabulous Mullins Library, I unfortunately had to use the restroom. You can tell I don't make an appearance at the library often, because I definitely did not know where the restroom was. Now, any normal person would have just gotten up and found one, or interrupted the unsuspecting soul, deep in their studies, next to them to ask where the closest one was. But I didn't really want to leave my computer, cell phone, and iPad just laying on the table as I aimlessly wander around looking for the loo, not to mention I am most definitely not normal. Then a little light bulb went off in my head! (This is where my interaction with the all-pervasive media comes in);) So I opened up Safari, went to google and searched "floor plan of the University of Arkansas Library," and what do you know? The first link took me to the Mullins Library home page where I was able to select which floor I was on and find the nearest restroom. Thanks to the all-knowing Google, I was able to get up with confidence and head off in the exact direction of the restroom. I minimized the time a lowly thief would have had to come by and snatch my iPad, and averted disaster, all because I looked up directions! Thank you Google! Thank you for providing directions!
Until next time,
