I’ll take any post you would care to send but perhaps some ideas might get the posts flowing, so to speak.
It is National Library Week! What are you doing, if anything, to celebrate? And does it involve beer and random trivia about Ranganathan?
What the heck is up with ALA’s request for a propsal to examine [...]

Bloglines and Wordpress 2.02
It really seems like there’s something going on with bloglines not picking up on feeds after people upgrade to Wordpress 2.02. My feeds don’t work, and when I looked over some of the other blogs I follow that also run Wordpress, I’m getting similar bloglines error messages when logging in to see if there are [...]
$#@%!!
I was trying to troubleshoot the problem I was having with my feeds in bloglines, and I think I managed to mess up my .htacess file. So if you notice any wackiness going in with the site, that is the cause.
I’m stepping away from the blog now before I mess anything else up.
Test post & Wacky feeds
Ever since I upgraded to the latest version of wordpress, my rss and atom feeds have been showing up as invalid in bloglines, although they seem to work just fine in FeedDemon. This is a test post to see if they are working now. If you subscribe to this site with an RSS reader that [...]
?-lists
I always feel conflicted when people talk about ranking bloggers. It seems goofy to me to think about ranking a subset of bloggers like library blogs, because I think mostly the only people that read library blogs are other library bloggers. That being said, I was amused by Libraryola’s post about The Nice Thing About [...]

He’s getting a $25.00 gift certificate for Amazon.com. Thanks to everybody who has commented on my blog so far! It is likely to be quite some [...]

2000 comment update
Now, I’m very very very close to declaring the winner of the 2000th comment giveaway! Thanks everyone for you feedback about the ad issue. I’m signed up with AdSense, so I’ll be adding that to the site soon. All of this should be invisible to those of you reading via RSS.
Ads, yay or nay?
I’m toying with the idea of running some ads on this site (maybe just Google AdSense or whatever Yahoo does, I’m not sure) but if a large group of regular readers hates the idea, I probably won’t do it. So, I’m curious, would you find a few ads on this site extremely irksome? Or would [...]
Carnival of the Infosciences #20
It is Monday and the 20th Carnival of the Infosciences finds people contemplating the future shape of libraries and librarianship.
We start with the idea of libraries as place, can a digital library help collaboration?
“Places of Quiet Collaboration” a commentary about a newspaper article by Alex Wright by Tinfoil + Raccoon, examines this question.
Woah, dude, [...]
