Philippe Beaudette, whom most of you know as the guy who wired the no-bid research contract to Q2 Consulting (his previous employer) has hired a right-hand gal on a temp basis, Christine Moellenberndt. QUOTE Christine Moellenberndt’s Summary
I am currently attending San Jose State University, in pursuit of a Master's degree in Applied Anthropology. My thesis research focuses around stakeholder relations in Web 2.0. My research analyzes relations between the owners of LiveJournal, a blogging website, and their users through posts made by the company to communicate to the community, the community's response in replies and messages on other LiveJournal communities, as well as interviews with LJ employees and users and anonymous surveys.
This research will answer questions surrounding formation of online communities and the feelings of ownership around those communities. My other areas of interest include identity in online communities, categories of insider and outsider as they pertain to online communities, self-identification, acceptance into these communities, and also into the broader category of "geek."
After graduation, I plan to take my new-found knowledge (and my 12 years of experience in the tech industry, with 10 years of experience with online communities) into the tech sector to assist companies with their understanding and usage of their online customer/user base. Christine Moellenberndt’s Specialties:
Unique knowledge of online communities, both as a researcher and as a member of several, understanding of the "geek" mindset, ability to translate from "geek" to "non-geek"

I'm still finding more references to her whining about her college debt... Also, from here: QUOTE Date: Mon, 21 Oct 96 15:58:44 EDT Name:: Christine Moellenberndt E-mail:: catwoman@inreach.com RQFC-topic: Masonic history and purposes Message:: I'm a Past Worthy Advisor of my Rainbow assembly, and Master of the Grand Cross of Color. I'm doing a research paper on Masonry, and am doing my own research, as my father is considering becoming a mason. Anyone who knows of some good books or articles is encouraged to mail me with their information. She leaves little paw-prints all over the Internet...

QUOTE(thekohser @ Tue 26th October 2010, 4:54pm) My coverage of the story in Examiner.com isn't going over so well with the Comments crowd. If Moellenberndt personally doesn't like the coverage, perhaps I could modify the article, or even delete it, but that would require her engaging with me, and the WMF has manifestly declined obligation to engage me. Anybody else notice how close Moellenberndt is to Moeller / Brandt? (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/fear.gif) Greg, please please reconsider that article. Yes, Wikipedia can be evil. But if someone posted that on Wikipedia, I'd delete it on sight. So, a young girl has taken on a job with an organisation which you find morally bankrupt. Is that any reason for you to victimise her by showing the worst goggle can do on intrusiveness? Please, tell me you can be better than that? And better than you accuse them of being? Reconsider?

What has age/gender got to do with anything ? The person in question is an adult making adult choices. Those choices have included disporting personal information around the internet, the stuff that multitudes of WP BLPs are made of, though those BLPs may use pre masticated low rent journalism to justify the inclusion of 'personal details'. No one who works for WMF should expect any better treatment than the worst that any WP BLP dishes out to its subject. At least Ms Moellenberndt doesn't have to live with a 'teen nude in suggestive pose' photo of herself gracing the 'sum of all human knowledge'. A.virosa

A.virosa Sticking some info on a social networking site isn't (mentally) the same as being the subject of a prurient article in what's designed to look like a newsite. (Although I agree, those posting on social networking need to consider it has the same net effect.) Now, I'm the first to agree there's a parallel with Wikipedia does. But at least Wikipedia does have a metric of "notability" and didn't scrape stuff from facebook, last I checked. Greg, if you were making an anti-wikipedia point, you've made it. This now just makes you look bad. We've had our differences, but I give you more moral credit than this. Please rethink. This post has been edited by Doc glasgow:

One year before reporting that school loans were practically insurmountable, there was the ability to get from California to Rome. QUOTE Christine's Blurbs About me: I can't believe I let myself get dragged over here.
I mean, LiveJournal was bad enough. But I let myself get dragged to freaking MySpace!? AM I INSANE?
The short answer is, I am insane but I suffer from prolonged bouts of sanity.
at the moment my life is very dark. i don't see it getting better anytime soon. for now i hope i can just make it through my master's program and not find myself more broken than i currently am.
Who I'd like to meet: Here's the thing.
I'm not really here to meet new people.
I'm here to find people I knew, and keep in touch with those I know. I'm not here to discover hot new local bands, or hot new anything bands, or guys who are looking for another notch in their belt, etcetera.
So unless I already know you... chances are I'm not going to friend you. This does actually go double for bands. I'm not the band type. I don't do that scene. So if you're looking for a new fan... I think you might want to look elsewhere.
Stuck up? Snobby? Cold? Maybe. But it's the truth.
Oh, and if you read all of this and add me anyway? Do you really think I'm going to add you back if it's that obvious you don't read, comprehend, and pay attention? Yeah, I don't think so either.
Sounds like she's not exactly "helpless". This post has been edited by thekohser:

Then again, it sounds like she could really use some help. QUOTE lamest of the lame
* Oct. 21st, 2008 at 11:04 PM
i am so freaking lame, it's disgusting.
i have a midterm due tomorrow. i've had it for two weeks. i have nothing written. and i mean that literally.
any other two weeks i'd have gotten it done by now. i'd probably not be happy with it, but i'd at least have words on a page, and didn't send an email to my advisor at 9:45 asking for more time.
i am so fucking lame.
that and the fact i was falling asleep at my computer at 9:30.
all of this just adds to my giant pile of lameness. lame. lame. lame lame lame. i suck. in a bad way. QUOTE fuck everything.
* Oct. 23rd, 2008 at 2:51 PM
there are times i wonder why i fucking bother with anything.
you make a mistake, people get jumpy, and i'm worse off than before.
i swear, why do i even fucking bother? i should just do what i wanted to do so long ago; curl myself into a little ball and insulate myself from anyone and everyone.
i'd quit getting hurt at least. I hope that her experience with the WMF helps restore a more holistic view of herself and her interaction in social environments.
