Hi, how are you?
I have something to share with you. Last year, some professors from different universities organized and published a book with some articles about recent researches we've done. One of them was written by me. It's about blogosphere and I mentioned your blog. I'd like to send it to you. What do you think about it?
What address should I send to? Well, my email is rejanemaria@uft.edu.br. Feel free to send your information. If you don't want, ok. I will understand.
Thanks,
Rejane
