Comments on the fritz

It turns out I must have installed Captcha! a bit wrong – I didn’t notice a problem but one of my readers contacted me to tell me that she was having problems. I’m going to look into it this week – I’ll keep you posted.

Installing MediaWiki

I’m trying to install MediaWiki on my other site (Tag You’re It) but I must say – it’s not very easy. I have read the documentation, but it doesn’t seem to be terribly helpful. One thing I did find, was a hack to make it so that only registered users can edit and add pages [...]

Overreact Much?

I just read over on Leslie Burger’s blog about a – what I consider – silly fiasco over a simple holiday card. A NJ librarian sent decided to use the ALA “Seasons Readings” holiday cards this year. She sent her first batch of cards to the township committe, library donors and local politicians, then as [...]

I love this guy!

Okay – I’ve never met him – but I love reading John Blyberg’s comments on Library 2.0. I’ve mentioned Blyberg in the past in reference to his ILS Customer Bill-of-Rights, now he’s talking more about this & Library 2.0 in general.

Google Librarian Newsletter

Back in October I subscribed to the Google Librarian Newsletter and the first issue has just arrived. This first issue is one article from a software engineer at Google, but Google promises that it won’t always be that way: But this newsletter wouldn’t be much of a conversation if it were written solely by folks [...]
