I had a great time in Monterey at Internet Librarian this year, but boy, there sure were some aspects that I found frustrating and infuriating. Let’s start with the internet access. Why am I blogging about the conference after the fact? Because I wasn’t able to access the free wifi at the conference, not once. [...]
Did I have a good time at this year’s Internet Librarian conference? Boy, did I! For one thing, I got to spend more quality time with some of my coworkers, who were at IL for the first time. We hit the aquarium, which was mindblowing. I think my jaw was in a state of perpetual [...]
Dear World, Yes, I’m in Monterey, attending the Internet Librarian conference. I’m having a great time. I intended to blog about it more than I have so far, but the wifi access at the conference has been abysmal. My roommate and I are paying for hi-speed cable access in our hotel room, so I’m taking [...]
One week from today, I’ll be winging it to Monterey for my second time to attend the Internet Librarian conference. Last time, I went alone. This year, I’ll be traveling with six of my coworkers. I’m really looking forward to attending the conference, hanging out with my Johnson County Library comrades in Monterey, and seeing [...]
I was feeling a bit under the weather yesterday. I was not feeling up to writing about going to NEKLS Tech Day the day before. I’m feeling better now, thank’s for asking, and so, once more, here we go with…NEKLS Tech Day 2007. The Good: I got to hang out with my witty, amusing coworkers. [...]
The second two days of Tri-Conference were even better than the first. I saw Royce Kitts give a really good presentation (which I later found out was, due to a lack of time, an abbreviated version of what he was intending to do) where he pulled a non-blogger out of the audience and walked her [...]
I’m attending all three days of Tri-Conference (yesterday, today, tomorrow) in sunny (well, not so much) Topeka, KS. The motel I’m staying at advertises free wifi. It wasn’t working in my room, so I went to the front desk and was told that the wifi probably won’t reach my room. “You’ll need a cable,” the [...]
Mickey Coalwell and I will be giving our Flickr presentation (“My Friend Flickr: Libraries, Pictures and Communities”)–the one that we gave at last summer’s NEKLS Tech Day–once again, at this year’s Kansas Tri-Conference in April. I’ve never been to Tri-Conference before, as a presenter or otherwise, so this is pretty exciting.
Ah, good ol’ Kansas! It’s cold, gray and rainy, just like October should be. The perfect weather to reflect upon my first professional, out of state, big-time conference. Not counting the keynote speech from J.A. Jance (which was interesting, funny and surreal), I started the conference off listening to Paul Miller from Talis talk about [...]
Karen G. Schneider wasn’t at Internet Librarian, so I still haven’t gotten a chance to meet her in person. That makes me sad. But she made a video and posted it on YouTube, sending a greeting to a bunch of IL bloggers, including myself! That makes me very happy.
