Judging from lists of other books tagged chick lit, I'm pretty much staying abreast of the genre! I liked that it was very easy to sign up for an account. By blogging about it, and including a link, I should be able to remember how to get back into the account. Between Flickr, bloglines, blogger and now librarything, there's alot of account info to remember. Not to mention the accounts that I maintain IRL.

Emotion A.1.5



Newsreaders- you could keep track of photos of new library design projects by tagging the terms librarydesign in Flickr and adding that tag to your newsreader.

Here's an image from Middle County Public Library in Selden, New York. Spiffy, huh?

Emotion B.2

The 7th Thing. Anything technology related that interests you: e-mail, twop.com, dowloading music from iTunes, burning CDs, the iPod shuffle at the gym. Other technology that I enjoy includes cars, toaster ovens and microwave ovens. Water heaters and hair dryers. Air conditioning. Search engines and databases. Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens (oh wait, that's not technology related). Cell phones (calls only, no texting). Have a digital camera, but can't think of anything to take pictures of.

Emotion B


[as Pavlov] Day 1: Rang bell, dog ate food. Very excited. Day 2: Rang bell louder dog even more food. Have become welsh. Day 3: Like speaking in Welsh so have decided to continue in that way, rang bell, dog ate so much that he explodes. Win Nobel dog prize at Crofts. But he never published his cat results did he? Oh yes they were hushed up. Day 1: Rang bell, cat [didn't pay attention]. Day 2: Rang bell cat went and answered door. Day 3: Rang bell, cat said he eaten earlier. Cheeky bugger. Day 4: Went to ring bell but cat had stolen batteries! Final day, day 5: rang bell with new batteries but cat put his paw on bell so it made a 'thunk' noise. Then cat rang his own bell! I... ate food. --Eddie Izzard
See how Pavlov, the cat, and the dog all use various aspects of the 7 1/2 habits of life long learners to reach different conclusions.... Obviously the hardest part is teaching he who will not be taught.

Emotion A

Yes, no smoking in bars now, and soon there'll be, no drinking and no talking! .... Soon everybody will be saying, "Come down to the library, we'll have a wild time!" "Don't know where that book could be, mate...there's a lot of 'em about!" --Eddie Izzard

Hmm, blogs could be something fun for people to get involved in at the library when bars ban the drinking and the talking.... Blogging is to library as talking is to bars?
