I did critical theory as an undergrad, inside of an English B.A. I
started work towards an M.A. in English, but ditched Restoration Drama
and British Colonial Literature courses in favor of working on the
web, which is what I've been doing since. I'm considering doing an
MLIS in the near future.

I've found the "inherent problems of language and representation"
approach from my undergrad days to be pretty useful way looking at the
web.
