23 Thing Blog Treasures

I’m enjoying reading all of the blogs and thought I would highlight some of the things I’m finding. At some point, I’ll add them to the 23 Things website, but for now, I don’t have that energy.

Heather’s My 23 Thingz blog has a fun Slide Master. (Yes, I realize she also has a thoughtful post on spokeo, but it’s Friday afternoon and I’m all about flash!)

RoyaltonLibrary posted a funny Muppet Show 2008 Election video

I like the little pictures Ginger Gellman uses to illustrate the posts on her weblob (Ginger, I’m sorry for the typo, but I’m glad you’ve adopted it!)

Blue Boare has a YouTube video showing what happens to a book when returned to a huge library. I’m hoping she gets the karmic technology points for learning how to embed a video she desires, if only because she referred to me as ‘the sainted Mara’!

Week 2

OK, so I wrote that first post last week and decided today that it’s time take a lesson from all of you brave librarians in Vermont who are participating in this project and PUBLISH MY BLOG!

I haven’t had time to do the first week’s ‘things’ yet, though I did look them over when setting up the program. I had thought I might use my blog to write about the 23 Things and write about the process of running the program, but frankly, I’ve been so busy adding blogs, sending notes to participants (and other interested parties), and trying to set up the 2008 workshop schedule, that I haven’t gotten further than thinking up imaginary blogposts in the shower or on my way to work.

23

This number keeps coming up these days. Or maybe I’ve just been noticing it since unveiling Vermont’s 23 Things on the 23rd. I’m really pleased with the response so far. The blog info is pouring in. Ok, trickling, but it’s only the first week and blogging is Week 2.
