Well, after that last post the rest of the day pretty much ran together. Presentations and more presentations. I’ve got lots of new URLs to check out including many new coll little utilities that deserve a look-see. I ended up spending the majority of the evening talking to Karen Coombs the Library Web Chic from SUNY Cortland. (We spend the majority of the two hour evening reception speaking with the two systems geeks from SUNY Stony Brook.) Wonderful clam chowder in a bread bowl and her as company made for lively and thought-provoking dinner-time conversation. After dinner I ended up walking 1.25 miles down to the local Kinkos to make new copies of my handouts for my cybertours as the ones I made originally are still back in Aurora. Oh well. I’ve scoped out the location for my cybertours and it looks like it’ll work just fine. Even though the cybertours are scheduled to be 15 minutes long, there all an hour apart so I’m no longer worried about running long.
