The Shifted Librarian comes through again - It feels right when I first read it, but then it fades.  It doesn't really represent my experience. I have not been thrilled with the cumbersome tools and so I am stuck somewhere between 2 and 3.  I don't have any practical applications of my own, but I can see lots of neat ways that blogging can be used.

Guess I need to define for myself the purpose of my own blogging... but not right now;-)

The Three Stages of Blog-awareness

"One of my lawyer friends who is tech-savvy and runs a cool website has recently been made aware of blogs.  After a few weeks of studying the blog phenomenon he sends me an E-mail and reports the following:

'OK, a couple of weeks ago I knew nada about the subject of blogs. Here is my take on the 3 stages of blogging:

1) There must be something to blogs because so many people are into it, but I don't have a clue.

2) OK, it does seem kind of cool and there is much, much more to it then I expected. I just don't see any really practical applications.

3) Oh my God, the things I can do with this are coming to me faster than I can keep up with.'

Well, looks like another one has been assimilated.  We who have already been assimilated know that resistance is futile.  Apparently, he's working hard in his laboratory on some new fangled way of doing things that will revolutionize the world.  Man, I love it when the complete absence of a plan comes together." [Ernie the Attorney]

This is so true! Come to the SLS Tech Summit about blogging on Thursday, February 27, and skip directly to step three. Pass GO and collect $200!  :-)
