Bears in today's Sun


The Vancouver Sun
14 Jul 2008
Discovered that the Sun links a feed to a blog - they also have an RSS feed but it has to be to a RSS reader on your personal computer - it didn't like Google Reader on our work computers. Loved the picture of the bears this morning.

Desk Set


Just looking at the "Desk Set" social networking group.. didn't join as I don't fit the social networking profile - well not the "single" bit..

Desk Set's Details
Status: Single
Here for: Friends
Body type: 0cm
Zodiac Sign:

Education: Grad / professional school
Occupation: librarians, archivists, people who like books


Quick link to: Desk Set

But it's a good way to connect to people with the same interests working in the book world. Great for Networking...maybe something to think of as we set up our new Webpage - a link to an NVDPL Social Networking Group - would have to come up with a cool name for it.. any suggestions?
