Fluffy…You Can Come Out Now
December 28th, 2004I just got off the phone with my new boss and I can officially go live with this.
Starting January 3rd, I will employed full-time at PubSub. I’ve always wanted to work in the blog/RSS field and this is my opportunity to do so. I’ll be heading up some new projects (I can’t tell you what they are, so don’t ask) and doing other library-related initiatives. I’m very excited about this new adventure.
The content of this blog will not change. I will continue to post about weblogs/RSS/Social Networking/Social Software and how libraries can use them to leverage the content that they produce and share. I will also still be attending library conferences and giving presentations. I’m still a librarian and will be a librarian in 2005. I just won’t be working in a library.
Also, even though I will be working for PubSub, it does not mean that I will not talk about other weblog/RSS initiatives. Will I talk about PubSub more? I might. Not sure yet.
I’ll miss working in libraries (I’ve done so since the 10th grade). I’ll miss the reference work, the satisfaction of finding that needle, the comraderie that we all feel with one another.
I also mentioned that Library Stuff will have an official sponsor next year (probably starting in mid January). I still can’t mention who they are, but they are well known to anyone who reads my blog on a daily basis. I am thrilled about this prospect as well.
Again, thank you for your continued readership over the past 3 years.
And away we go…
