Things I Learned While On Vacation...

People (especially young adults) are still using libraries. (great analysis from the FRL, Lorcan, Stephen, ACRLog and more)

The Firefox Facebook toolbar completely rocks. Try it out!

Stephen Abram's 30 Library Technology Predictions for 2008. I especially loved his thoughts on Google Docs and the demise of Blockbuster.

Avatars are everywhere among young users. My five year old daughter received her first WebKinz over the holidays (we didn't activate it) and watched her first online video at Cute Overload. I can't help but feel that she is poised at the top of a huge precipice, and I don't want her to jump off.
