Lots of miscellaneous stuff

Lots of stuff is going on here in my little corner of the universe. I updated Movable Type to the latest version and gave the blog a little facelift. I bought Spam Bully and upgraded to the latest version of ACDSee. I got introduced to a new people networking site called orkut a few days ago. It’s interesting but I’m not sure what the point is.

In other blog news I joined the staff of authors over at LISNews and posted my first story today. Just look for stories posted by Dan G. And in brick and motar library news, looks like Knoxville is thinking about a new library. From an article in the Knoxville News Sentinel ; “When Library Director Larry Frank talked about the need for a new library last fall, he noted that by the standards of the American Library Association, the current library, which was built in 1971, is only one-third to one-half the size that it should be.” Yep, sounds like it it might be time for a new library.

And for those of you wondering how I’m doing, I’ve gotten my neck brace off finally and have managed to walk a few feet with help. So things are looking ok on the recovery front.

    Terrific news, Dan!

    I saw the call for authors at LISNews, way to step up with the cajones, man.
