Well, it is a little late, but Happy New Year! It's been a fairly hectic time in our personal lives post-New-Year, so we apologize for being offline. We promise we'll be back soon with new posts and contests and overall deliciousness.
Until then, enjoy this video, in which some students that we can only imagine are majoring in Computer Science or Engineering, put on a light show using the lights in their dorm.

The Wall Street Journal visits the PUTZ dorm at MIT, where MIDAS (the dorm room with a "party mode" resides). It all looks a little dark but the technology is sweet, and the idea that MIT students stay in the same dorm all four years is pretty cool.

We're Tweeting! For those of you unaware of the phenomenon that is Twitter, here's the scoop. It's basically a social tool that lets you communicate with people following you with short messages called tweets. Over the past week, DormDelicious has been building our Twitter account, @dormdelicious, which we encourage you all to start following.
Not only will we be updating you when we have new posts, we'll also be tweeting about goings-on in the college/dorm life space and asking for help as we write our articles. We think it's a great way to get quick feedback from college students like you, so we don't just keep writing about our own experiences, which we will eventually run out of, and have to write about that time we stole a cup from the dining hall, or that time we tried to do that thing where you make a harmonica out of a blade of grass.
For more Twitter fun, check out this just-released video from the guys over at HackCollege, where they ask 101 college students (at LMU, which is just up the street from us) whether they know what Twitter is. Enjoy! And remember to follow @dormdelicious.
