A Wiki About a Blog About Social Software….at a Library Conference.

“A group of music librarians will be blogging in real time during the upcoming Music Library Association annual meeting in Vancouver, BC, in February. I’ve started a Wiki to gather ideas from the Library Blogging community on what nifty tricks we might include.”
Jenny had some ideas about what she would like to see at library conferences:
“I’d still like to see comments and blog posts by presenters & participants, but it’s a hell of a start…note how the pictures and the commentary give you a better sense of the day-to-day conference than a one-page write-up in a print magazine. Voice. Personality. Tone.”
As always (well, most of the time), I agree with Jenny here. Another suggestion that I would make is directed towards integration of content. One of the big issues that we had at Internet Librarian was that we didn’t get together as a cohesive group. There are ways to do this right and I hope to get the opportunity at Computers in Libraries in March.
Good luck with the blog John.
