Cinco de Mayo

Yes it is that time of year again - though I don’t really celebrate Cinco.  I’m celebrating in a different way today, by moving to Chicago.  My bags are all packed, my belongings are already on their way up to Chicago and I’m at the airport (ATL) waiting for a flight to take me to [...]

Last Chance to Make an Impression?

I’m flying to Baton Rouge later today to teach my last “official” class for SOLINET.  Tomorrow is my last day and the end of almost 5 years at this job.  I’ll be teaching Web 2.0: Social Software Applications for Libraries at the Greenwell Springs Road Regional Branch Library (part of E. Baton Rouge Parish Library [...]

Madisonville

As the title shows, I’m in Madisonville, KY at the moment. I was thinking on the drive over here from Benton this afternoon after class, that I used to be more open to taking side trips on the way somewhere. I remember being in Wyoming and going “off road” to see the sights [...]

30-Second Office Space

One of my all-time favorite movies has been redone as a 30-second movie recreated by bunnies. Check it out: http://www.starz.com/features/bunnyclub/office%5Fspace/
Heading up to Paducah and the Land Between the Lakes region tomorrow to teach Web 2.0. It’s been so fun to teach this class and to learn from what other institutions are doing with [...]

Raintree County

Last week I taught a Web 2.0 class in Frankfort, KY. I love that part of the state, it’s so beautiful. This time instead of teaching at KDLA, I taught at the Paul Sawyier Public Library. This library is right downtown, sort of near the Capitol on a meandering river. [...]

4:21

My flight was supposed to leave at 2:19 pm today and it finally left (the tarmac) at 6:45 pm. I’m in Baton Rouge, Louisiana to teach the last two of the Rural Library Sustainability Workshops here and then another in Alexandria on Wednesday. It’s weird to think that I have been working on [...]

Sunshine and Rain

I flew down to Tampa on Thursday to teach a class - “Marketing Your Virtual Library” for a group of awesome librarians at the Ocala Public Library (for NEFLIN). This library used to be a grocery store - much like the library I was in, in Ruston, Louisiana in April. I spoke to [...]

lastday

No I’m not a Runner and no I’m not going escaping elimination, but I am heading home to the US finally tomorrow. I am back in Melbourne staying here and about to go exploring to see what I missed when I was here before.
In the past week:

I have flown from Brisbane to Christchurch
taught a [...]

Queensland - the other Sunshine State

Ok so no jokes about the name of the state I am in (and by that I mean one of the states of Australia.) I arrived in Brisbane on Tuesday evening after teaching two days in Sydney. So Sydney was unfortunately very short, but I hope to go back someday. Brisbane is [...]

How I Spent My Birthday This Year
