DISQUS

Congratulations! What fun. Look forward to both publications.

Sounds like a terrific conference! Thanks for sharing your notes.

Thanks for that news. Flying on Tuesday. Think my laptop bag will be TSA friendly. Now, what about my shoes??? :-)

So sorry for you loss. How wonderful that you knew your great-grandmother though. What a rare privilege. No doubt she is smiling down on you and your family.

What a great project! Congrats. And neat idea to build a wiki as a "collaborative collaboration" - very meta-meta and escher-ish! :-)

Feeling exhausted reading your schedule! Thanks for taking the time to post all the great blog posts. So good to be able to read about what's going on. Hope you get some rest!

Interesting, I too went to the Business Week site to read it and had no problem. Now you have me wondering what I've installed to block things and have forgotten about!

I have a similar problem with their opening page.
Windows XP Pro 5.1.2600 SP2
Firefox 2.0.0.14
flash 9.0.115.0

If I'm doing a short session that's just demo/talking/chatting, I go paperless and direct participants to my wiki for links and other info. I've only had one complaint, the person was really quiet distressed and informed me that speakers always provide copies of slides. It was an interesting moment!

That said, for my full-day/hands-on sessions, I still provide handouts. I get a wide range of skill levels in my classes and I find a handout helps people work at their own pace and lets me help the people who need the most help. Evaluation comments consistently thank me for the handouts. Still, I hate all the paper I'm using. Lots of it ends up shredded and put in my compost heap!

Welcome to the world of the home office! I'm impressed, at your desk at 7am! My hours are a bit different. :-) But I love working from home, been doing it for 11 years now. Lots of flexibility and frankly, I think I get more done. But I do miss the people sometimes. So lots of lunch meetings. And strangely, even though I don't post much on twitter, just dipping in there now and then lets me know others are out there.. somewhere....

Very cool idea! What a dizzying photo. They need some cushions for the steps. I could see sitting on them a lot.

=Will have to read that article. I too was lost when I first looked at Yahoo Pipes, and haven't had time to get back to it. Like you said, reading the instructions helps! :-)

Guess I need to add all my cookbooks to librarything and compare notes! I leave recipes all over the house too. I thought we librarian types were supposed to be organized. :-)

Congrats!! You did all that in one year and worked full time and did all the rest of the stuff that you do???? Wow. Superwoman!
