Similar to The Powerhouse Museum's Photo of the Day The Met has a blog with a new photo every second day of a "Addressing Fashion" exhibition they are currently showing.
As a form of advertisement this type of thing seems worthwhile but I wonder if this doesn't spoil seeing "the real thing"? Are they getting less on site visitors or more?
It doesn't appear they have a RSS feed.
Anyway, if you have a interest in fashion history you may like to check it out.

Flickr etc
I already had a Flickr account but i don't use it, maybe I will in the future but right now it doesn't do much for me - the same can be said for Face Book.
I'm not alot wiser after checking out the information that was suggested to check out.
Anyway here's a link to a photo that I liked.
I still might take some photos at work and post them, but I'm waiting for some more fine weather.
I'm looking forward to finding out more about RSS feeds.
OK, goodnite.

So far so good
Blog set up.Check.
Check out 3 blogs, yep. Liked the Library of Congress blog but thought the Powerhouse blog was visually attractive but didn't draw me in further than the front page.
IBM Guidelines. Check.
Watched the YouTube clip. Lucky my broadband is faster than it was 2 weeks ago - if people wanna do this from home they will need fairly fast net access or a lot of patience.
Lifelong Learning wiki. Check.
Stephen Fry clip, check. Didn't know he was a techie but checked his website which has a blog.
Within the library blogs will be good for communication, expressing and refining ideas.
Also for training I think it would be good to video all training and post it on servers, only available to staff, of course. (Not to go overboard or anything, but I think it would be good for staff on service points to see and hear how they interact with clients on videotape as a means to improve their client service.)
The other techie thing that will be good for Staff and clients is an RSS feed of New Books whereby you are notified of a new book that fits your interest or subject headings. I know I would sign up.
OK that's all for now.
