Sal – “Make sure that you fool your bosses (who are a million times more technophobic than your grandparents) into thinking that you are ‘up on technology’ by making reference to Wikis and RSS content as if they really mattered”
Ha! Love it.
livelibrary – “Kansas Memory is the Historical Society’s newest online offering, featuring the largest collection of photographs and manuscripts from Kansas history on the Internet, and can be accessed at kansasmemory.org.”
Pumpkin Spice beer at John Harvard’s.
Even better? You can purchase a 64 oz jug of the stuff to take home. We’re picking up one on Saturday.

George Needham – “I always thought that there was a great library-based sitcom just waiting to be produced.”
Shel – “If nothing else, my previous post asking what I should say in a speech to the California Librarians Association, produced over 30 responses. Clearly people are passionate on the subject. Clearly they also have a positive outlook for the need for libraries.”
I met Shel once (he probably doesn’t remember me) at a Syndicate Conference in SF (I was with PubSub then). He’s a great guy and will make for a wonderful speaker at the California Library Association.
Tim Spalding – “It’s too bad asking users for help is harder in the physical than in the digital world—although I’m sure a lot of thingamabrarians would pay for the privilege of rolling a cart through the LC’s stacks…”
Reuters – “Rather than looking for their perfect match, one in four Americans say the Internet can serve as a substitute for a significant other, according to a poll released on Wednesday.”
On October 30th, I will be doing a quickie 5-10 talk about RSS at the EOS International Luncheon Seminar. We use EOS for cataloging/OPAC at one of our clients and have built a strong relationship with them. I’m thrilled to be doing this for the EOS folks.
I hope to see you there as well.
