This is the link to my delicious account. I think the Ask a Librarian team would benifit from using this tool.

my thoughts on wikis

I'm still a bit hesitant to recommend a wiki such as wikipedia for authoritive information. I do however like the idea of sharing information within a select group such as the booklovers wiki and Wisconsin Heritage one.

RSS Feeds

I have successful put on feed link to this blog. Now how do I know how many people subscribe??

I like the idea of RSS feeds as I am a basically lazy web browser and would much prefer articles to come to me - especially ones I know that I will be interested in.

my sights into the teenage mind through travel

I recently spent 3 weeks with my son travelling through Turkey. I think this is the first time we had spent so much time together since he was 2 weeks old - not that either of us have strong memories of that time. My mind (at that time only - ha!) obviously can only be described as mashed peas while his neurons were not joined. 4 weeks ago I would have questioned where the joining had actually ever happened. So... you can guess by that last remark I was mildly surprised with this young lad.

I found him compassionate, sensitive and to have a deeper understanding & tolerance of human folly (usually mine) than his usual monosyllabic responses suggested. He didn't easily make friend especially in my company or with older people but I witnessed him learn to speak up, ask questions, look people in the eye and initiate conversations!


He did display [other] male attributes because as a women I like to reflect and comment on people & situations (not necessarily in a mean or disparaging way) and as a guy he mistook this as whinging & complaining...
