I know I don’t post much here anymore (and I know that the “why I haven’t been posting lately” post is one of the blogosphere’s most popular refrains), but I’m truly uncertain as to why this poor blog is experiencing such a dry spell. It certainly isn’t from a lack of ideas. I think of… Read more »

Remember me?
Well, after many months of being m.i.a., I’m finally back in the good ol’ web 2.0 mentality, trying to get back into the world of the social web. Mind you, I’ve been good and active on Facebook, Twitter, feed-reading, etc., and even trying new apps like friendfeed and Digsby, but just haven’t found the time,… Read more »
You know you’re obsessed with the blogosphere when…
You actually know what the hell the blogosphere is, and have used the word in a sentence (frequently). Extra points if you can identify at least one prefix used to describe a particular segment of the blogging community (a la biblioblogosphere). You know who Andrew Keen is, and think he’s pretty much full of it…. Read more »
New Feed! Humble Apologies! Advice-Seeking! Act Now!!!

If you let the video load and then shoot ahead to about 5… Read more »
I’ll Tell You Where You Can File Your Authority…
Ok, I am not even going to comment on the Gorman thing. Seriously, he’s like a message board troll.

Why am I practically begging for them to at least provide… Read more »
cyber schizophrenia
Managing my online identities has been a bit of a challenge for me lately. With all these cool web 2.0 apps out there, I really am finding it hard to keep track of it all… I find that just keeping up on my rss feeds and checking out all my social networking profiles is eating… Read more »
Well Hello There, You!
My love of all things web 2.0 and my desire to play in the biblioblogosphere has given birth to yet another blog. I currently have a (very) personal blog, and also maintain a blog for my library, but this one seeks to merge the two me’s- personal and professional- into a well-integrated, well-balanced (haha) whole….
