Today, I somehow found some energy and inspiration for a blog post. But rather than post it here, I’ve started a new blog on the LSW site: Humbug! The idea is for it to be a group blog, with other members and me posting to it. But even if no one else posts to it [...]

Two people have told me that my last couple of posts have come through Google Reader with spam links cluttering the post. I have no idea why this would happen or what to do about it. If anyone else is seeing this, please let me know. And if you know how to solve the problem, [...]

It’s been almost a month since I last posted here (and I said I intended to post more, ha ha!), but the fact is, I’ve been feeling…well, bored with Libraryland.

Meebo is looking for Customer Support Manager, and they think someone with reference librarian experience would be good for the position. I have no idea what Meebo is like to work [...]

Karen G. Schneider for hire! Karen is looking for work, and boy, if I could hire both her and Walt Crawford, I could rule the school! Sadly, I have neither the funding nor the influence to get Karen a job. But I can offer my best wishes, so…best of luck, KGS!

I’ve been liminally tagged by Rachel Singer Gordon, so here are eight random tidbits about yours truly: 1. I love all six Star Wars movies. Yes, I love the prequels. 2. I’m currently addicted to the game Rome: Total War. If I haven’t been blogging as much lately, that’s a big reason why. 3. I [...]

For reasons that are beyond me, OCLC is letting Walt Crawford go. (I’m not going to introduce Walt because, well, I’d be shocked if anyone reading this blog doesn’t know who Walt is.) If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “Gee, wouldn’t it be great if Walt worked for me? Too bad OCLC snatched him up,” [...]
