YouTube choice

I love the Wu Tang Clan!
This song is from their first cd, The 36th Chamber.

Wu-Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M.

Technorati and tags

Absolutely not interested as of now; I prefer stream of consciousness browsing and I use the internet mostly to read writers blogs, and to find books. I like the nooks and crannies of the internet;they aren't usually tagged nor do they have an rss feed thing.

I also hate the word technorati the way I hate the word impacted used as a verb.
This last statement, of course, is appropos of nothing.

Another thing,16 this time, Wiki's

Wiki's have never been my first choice for information but they are good at times for the extra detail of a web address or book title. I was happy to discover that libraries were using them to share tips on weeding ,etc.;and the Princetons Book Lover wiki was cool.

Thing 19 & Stuff

I am familiar with both Bibliofind and Library Thing. I have bought books thru' the first and cataloged books with the latter. I find them easy to use but haven't used them lately.
How they could be adapted for public library use I can not fathom unless aquisitions is looking to buy archival material or it is decided to catalog materials on Library Thing, just in case...

There is probally a technical aspect to this thing that I don't get,but the Whiz Kids et al will figure it out,and they'll tell me and all will be well.

I'm out!
