While freebase.org is still developer only (are these related? a little hard to tell, but I think yes) freebase.com is now open, no invitation needed.So, there. Go play in a new sandbox! ;-D

I started blogging at blogger long before google purchased it. Once google purchased it, users were given the option of continuing to blog the old way, or move on over to the google way. To entice people to move on over to the g way, google offered enhanced blogger with lots more functionality (widgets!!!!!!!! love widgets. thank you ajax. another topic)When I finally moved to the google way, unfortunately, my user name at blogger migrated as a new gmail/google account. So, although I had a gmail account, I now had a second gmail account just for my blog. Sigh!

Well, I guess it's no surprise to me. Flickr is superior...------------------We will officially close Yahoo! Photos on Thursday, September 20, 2007, at 9 p.m. PDT. Until then, we are offering you the opportunity to move to another photo sharing service (Flickr, KODAK Gallery, Shutterfly, Snapfish, or Photobucket). We're making the transfer real simple, and with a couple clicks we'll automatically move your photos to Flickr or wherever you want them.

So, the session (seminar)? that I co-taught about MARC, record structure and secrets of the catalog went well. Overall turnout about 60 people. I think that' s pretty good. My colleague & I will probably (hopefully) followup with more sessions later. I had a kind of big snafu -- pressed what I thought was the magic secret extraordinarily hard to remember shortcut key combo to launch the movie from ppt and bzzzzpt!

So, you may (or may not!) have noticed a new feature here. I've loaded the widget for snapshots. What is snapshots? Well, when you see a link in a post, if you roll your pointer over it, a little preview of the website pops up. Pretty handy, hmm? On the snapshots popup, there is a little wheel looking icon on the toolbar. You can turn off this feature (if it just drives you crazy) or you can change the settings (see RSS feeds instead of page view).Give it a go:Move your pointer here
