One of our Five Weeks guys, Fred Jahns, sent us this hilarious video entitled Supermarket 2.0. It includes nods to some of my favorite tools.
–Jane, laughing in 2.0
Wow, indeed
You know when you come up with an idea and it seems really great and then you see it in print and think, “Wow, maybe I should have rethought that?”
I give you this book.

Meaningless Chatter
Is Twitter really meaningless? Sometimes, yes, but the smile that I get from reading things on Twitter is valuable to me. Here are some things to brighten your day:
- What is Web 2.0? And why can’t I get it in my pants? from LouiZoot
- explaining to Luke the dif between a “time out” in basketball and a “time out” for kids (L: “that guy has to have a time out? what’d he do?) from stevelawson
- Librarians are hiding something. from Steven Colbert
- Drew just asked me who Judy Blume is. *headdesk* Clearly, my husband was never an adolescent girl. from Jenica26
–Jane, Twitter may be chaotic subversion at its best
Mr. Abram dun care
In spearit of I Can Has Cheesburger, theese from ze LiB almost mades me wetz ze pantzes.
Proof of My Salvation
I received a spam comment from Jesus. The. Son. Of. God.
I know if Jesus can take the time to send me a spam comment, my place in heaven must be assured.
–Jane, what a relief
April Means Big Changes
In a surprise move, Google takes over OCLC and thus the library world. Will we even have a catalog anymore or will everyone “just look it up in Google?” Oh, wait, they already do. Well, I might as well quit and go live in the mountains. Free information is dead.
For more commentary, read Hectic Pace, Free Range Librarian, and It’s All Good.
–Jane, is wrong to still love Google?
A Little Bit of Insanity
Just a bit of something to start your week off right. You have to see it to believe the goodness.
–Jane, hooked on a feeling
Why I Have Hope for ALA
At least for the publishing division…
I am sure you have all seen Magnum, A.L. but I am behind on my feeds and Jenny just placed it in my inbox. Oh, what a way to start out my day. Thanks, A.L. Team!
–Jane, laughter is the best medicine
The L-Team
It is silly, so very eighties, and you probably all saw it at the bottom of you Al Direct (right?), but I could not resist giving them some link love.
–Jane, giggles
I Turned Out to be Wash
Normally, I would not post this stuff, but it was Firefly, so how could I possibly resist?
Your results:
You are Wash (Ship Pilot)

You are a pilot with a good if not silly sense of humor. You take pride in your collection of toys. You love your significant other.  |
