"The Librarian's Book Club has made their book slections for May - June. The books are 'The Myth of the Paperless Office' and 'Scrolling Forward: Making Sense of Documents in the Digital Age.'
The Librarian's Book Club welcomes anyone to join that is interested in reading books that relate to libraries and the library profession. Information on how to join the book club and more info on the current selections can be found at bibliofuture or Creighton Library" [LISNews.com]
If I was reading regularly or if these titles were available on Audible, I would join this book club in a heartbeat. I may still consider lurking to hear the discussion. Is that so wrong?

iBlog: Running Radio on the iPod
"Today I moved Radio UserLand folder to my iPod. Since moving Radio is usually painful, I renamed my iPod disk with the same name of my PowerBook HD. Everything works as expected, I'm posting this message from my G4, running Radio from my iPod.
This also means that I can walk to any Mac, plug in my iPod and start blogging in seconds." [Paolo Valdemarin Public Weblog, via Scripting News]
Very cool! So Paolo is using his iPod to make his blogging more portable. See also Bryce's Pocketblog application for PocketPCs for more great work in this area (although his doesn't carry around your entire installation with you). C'mon Palm developers - you can do it, yes you can, provide us with some blogging jam!
