Lame excuses and other topics…

I know, my blogging here has been, well, it’s been crap lately. Unfortunately, I’ve been spending so much of my time writing for other projects that writing here has become a bit of a chore. I’ve had to write and edit a web RFP for the Friends of the Library, work on a series of articles aimed toward home PC users for another venture that has yet to launch, write up a course outline and other materials for a training class I’m teaching next week at work, and to top it all off, I just really haven’t seen or read anything lately about technology that has excited me enough to want to write about it!

I’ve pointed to news items and interesting little tid-bits on the link blog, but even there, nothing’s really caught my attention long enough for me to write about it. Of course, there’s always the same old bloggers as journalists, blogging as a business model, blogging as PR junk floating around, but I’m much more likely to want to talk about people doing actual information sharing, as opposed to talking about what it all means.

It’s sort of like in every workplace, there are people who do the work, and there are those who talk about it. The talkers never really seem to get anywhere on their own, and most times work gets done more around them than through them. 😉

    One of my favorite things about living in South Carolina, especially now that I’ve been here awhile and have gotten used to things, are all of the great photo opportunities. Not only do we live close to the mountains, but with the mild weather, there aren’t long stretches of the year where you don’t get…
