Campus Explorer
I just read about this beta site via Sites & Soundbytes. The tagline for CampusExplorer is “School Search Made Smart” and I totally agree. I have been trying to help my husband find a master’s program near our new home for special ed. Most sites just let you search by state - but [...]

The Good, The Bad, and Web 2.0
I should not be writing here - I should be writing one of my three papers, but I couldn’t resist. I got distracted by a “discussion” between Andrew Keen, writer of The Cult of the Amateur, and David Weinberger, author of Everything is Miscellaneous.
Keen says:
Yes, the people have finally spoken. And spoken. And spoken.
Now [...]

How did we end up this way?
Tyler Rousseau has a great post over at Library Garden in which he asks:
But how did we get to this stage? Why do we have professional librarians who refuse to keep up with the professional and technological requirements? How did we reach a point where the patrons' needs were less important than the traditional way [...]

Future of Librarians
A very very long time ago (so long, that I actually completely forgot until I read about it on Helene’s blog) I gave an interview for DegreeTutor on my thoughts about the future of librarians.
Be sure to check out the other interviews as well.
WikiMindMap
This is pretty neat. I just learned about WikiMindMap. It’s a tool that lets you browse Wikipedia articles graphically.
Here’s a little search I did for Library.
By clicking the links on the image (were you on the WikiMindMap page) you are brought to the article in question on Wikipedia.

Google “My Maps”
I saw this new tab earlier but just ignored it (who needs another “my” tool?), but then I read what it was all about on Lifehacker and had to share.
To add multiple layers of data points to your maps - like information about real estate prices, weather, earthquakes and movie showtimes - from the “My [...]

Just a quick note to let you all know that I’m still around. I have sold my house and have an offer in on a new one. I am trying to keep up with my last term at Drexel and I’m still commuting 3-4 hours a day. All that makes it a [...]

World’s Thinnest Notebook (for real)
The other day I wrote about the thinnest laptops ever. Today I read that Toshiba actually has the thinnest notebook.
The Portege R500 is Toshiba's newest addition to the mobile front. Surprisingly this two pound notebook comes with an optical drive which is touted as the worlds thinnest at an impressive 7mm.
The R500 packs some [...]

Thinnest Laptop Ever
I agree with Sarah - I want one of these nifty little things!! In fact - that was just what they were aiming for:
Though designers say the product is unisex, as a fashion accessory it may carry particular appeal to women, a group Intel has long wanted to win over. “Increasingly, women are often [...]
