The program It's Not Just Google Anymore: Blogs and the Latest in Search Engines sponsored by NEASIST is summarized by Elizabeth Riba on her 'blog, Riba Rambles. Speakers included Jenny Levine of The Shifted Librarian, Steven Cohen of Library Stuff, Jessamyn West of Librarian.net, and Greg Notess of Search Engine Showdown. All that and in Cambridge, Mass. a great city. I've spent some time at the Inman Square pubs, the Coop, and Legal Seafood in the days of my youth. Good contra, English country and folk dancing there. Have to revisit soon.
