Is that really a bunch of librarians on stage ??? I guess not - but it sure looks impressive !!

How could we use Flickr in the library - even if not many of us know any ballet steps ?? Well , we DO have a website and we use it for our customers to find out stuff about us - and pictures would certainly enhance that. What if I wanted to look at possible configurations for for a new circulation desk ?? What if I wanted to find a picture of the latest winner of the Nobel winner ?? The possiblities are absolutely endless.

Okay .... now it must be time for a sugarplum and tea !!

My new RSS feeds

Okay .... it wasn't so hard after all. I subscribed to the Shifted Librarian feed - how appropriate ! (Oh, wait a minute - it's not the SHIFTY librarian , as I thought) . This is a very cool place to go - issues that peopel who work in libraries are all about.

The, for something completely new and different, I subscribed to the Globe and Mail's "Food and Wine" feed. You may ask - how will that help me in my job ??? Well, it will certainly keep me happy, which will make our customers happy - it's a win win situation. It's also possible that someone could ask me a question about food and/or wine , and I would be a good position to answer !!

My first post

I am heading into this new task with fear and trepidation - and my old brain is creaking with the effort of doing something new ! Why did I decide to participate in the Web 2.Huh?!? God alone knows - He or She must be laughing at this old dawg having to learn some new tricks. Oh well - what the heck - here we go !!!!
