I stumbled across this amusing gem from the Annoyed Librarian tonight, while trying to deal with my well overflowing feed reader in a slightly more productive way than hitting ‘mark all as read’.

But then, I may as well just hit that oft maligned button, given that more than half the posts are from library blogs and will therefore say nothing, repeat themselves, link to images I don’t want to see, or be full of recipes and advice I’m not interested in. Pah! ‘Mark all as read’, here I come!

a haiku for our time

From Joho the Blog, written by David Weinberger of Everything is Miscellaneous fame, comes this little gem of a haiku:

When the doors open
the library’s early birds
use wifi indoors.

Funny, and how very true.

Also true (unfortunately) is this one in the post’s comments:

If the earlybirds
Try to use wifi outside
Police harass them.
– AKMA

Hmmmm. So few words, so much said.

[Aside: Joho the Blog is full of goodness. I highly recommend it.]

…and the next day?
