I love knitting. I love the Creative Commons. I hope wearing this hat will get people asking me about what Creative Commons is.
Do you want to learn more about Creative Commons too? Ok. Try:

The Reader — New Blog from MPOW
Posted by: greebie on: February 2, 2009
A few colleagues of mine have released a blog for MPOW about reading called The Reader.
Kudos to David, Kristina, Maureen and Laurel for what looks like a fairly impressive blog so far (my name is up there only to put in a few bits of CSS here and there).
Blog and Twitter Worlds Collide. . . then Converge?
Posted by: greebie on: April 30, 2008
It all started because I Blogged where I should have Twittered. . . Greg wrote a post called “Stepping into Marketing“ talking about Mitch Joel presentation. And I wrote this:
I actually had Mitch in my Twitter list, but he didn’t follow me, so I took him off. I might put him back though.
Whether or not you think this [...]

Too bad LISNews only mentioned 10 blogs in their list.
In With the New; In With the New.

Ten more ideas about how I can make my life better, in libraries and elsewhere:
Plan an unconference — somewhere, somehow.
The field needs more unconferences, and I’d like to host/organize one for local librarians this year — probably in the summer sometime.
More controlled and productive computer time.
No, this has nothing to do with social software. I [...]
The Year in First Lines
Posted by: greebie on: December 19, 2007
There is a meme going on. I am not going to tag you. It never works anyway. Just do it if you want to do it.
December: Oh yeah, there’s been a hiatus.
November: So, I can generally get funding for approximately one conference per year.
October: I’m happy to say that the [...]
A Month-Long Change of Theme. :)
Posted by: greebie on: December 2, 2007
Oh yeah, there’s been a hiatus. Lots of real life going on these days. But here are some interesting things:
I will be presenting at Computers in Libraries on the use of laptop labs in libraries. This is exciting because fellow Library Society of the Worlders, Steve Lawson, Joshua Neff, and Rikhei Harris are going too. [...]

What fun, a claymation program at your library and then everyone can see it on YouTube! Hurray. Heather and crew at the Spring Garden Memorial Library did a “Under the Sea” program last year, which was also quite cute. I love it!
I’m #22!
Posted by: greebie on: September 4, 2007
I was absolutely astonished to discover that I am #22 on the Online Education Database’s list of the top 25 bloggers. All grains of salt are required about the numbers. A bunch of blogs were not included in the study that could easily kick my pagerank backside. To name [...]
Too Bad “Librarian” Doesn’t Meld Well into “Entrepreneur”
Posted by: greebie on: August 17, 2007
So I stopped into the Uncontrolled Vocabulary live discussion forum only to be told that they were previously discussing my “We Asked for 2.0 Libraries” post from a few days ago. Besides being a bit surprised (though after today I have discovered that the post has potential to beat out my “no brainer” [...]
What am I doing now?
- RyanDeschamps: @laurenoostveen I'm definitely interested - just need to confirm that I can make it!
- RyanDeschamps: Still looking for people who read lots but do not use a library to do a focus group at the Alderney Gate library. DM me if interested.
- RyanDeschamps: @andrewbaron Just means for market share for 'bork bork bork'! Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCbuRA_D3KU
