I attended several technology-related sessions at the MLA convention, and I would not mind exchanging comments with others who attended, or with others who may have something to contribute. The organizers of "Internet 101: Resources for Research, Communication, and Teaching" (session 130) got something of a shock during the first speaker's comments. Perhaps a year ago, when this session was likely first planned, there was a greater need to introduce humanities instructors to the internet I think we were all rather suprised when, in response to the question, "how many of you have used e-mail," perhaps 99% of the people in the large crowded ballroom raised their hands; in response to "how many of you have used hypertext documents," perhaps 80% of the hands went up; when the question was "how many of you have used the World Wide Web," around half of those present raised their hands. When the question was, "How many of you have authored Web documents," I saw perhaps ten hands, although there may have been more behind me. The session was not so much a 101 course as a remedial one -- the speaker discussed how to use a mouse, and demonstrated how to double-click on an icon. I don't at all mean to criticize the event organizers for underestimating the experience level of their audience; on the contrary, the high attendance at the event demonstrated that scholars who already know a little about the internet are very hungry for even more events like this one. There are a few more MLA sessions which might be of interest, but perhaps I will wait and see what other people have to say before I continue. Dennis G.
