Wikocracy is the U.S. Constitution as a Wiki. Don’t like something? Change it. Got an idea for an amendment? Add it. Just to warn you though, amendments 28-64 are already there.
On a more serious note, my undergraduate minor is in criminal justice, and I took two semesters of constitutional Law as an undergrad. This is one of the most philosophically interesting Wikis I have ever seen. I’m going to be keeping my eye on this one to see how it develops.
Thanks Jenny!
Check this out. Websites as graphs takes in your URL and visualizes your site. This one’s mine. There’s also a flickr tag (websitesasgraphs) so you can see other results.
Legend:
blue: for links (the A tag)
red: for tables (TABLE, TR and TD tags)
green: for the DIV tag
violet: for images (the IMG tag)
yellow: for forms (FORM, INPUT, TEXTAREA, SELECT and OPTION tags)
orange: for linebreaks and blockquotes (BR, P, and BLOCKQUOTE tags)
black: the HTML tag, the root node
gray: all other tags
What I’m trying to figure out is what four pages on my site include tables…
Thanks Darlene (but I can’t get a link to your blog to work…)
With the recent announcements by those speaking at Internet Librarian this fall, and with one of BCR’s receptionists (who is attending the LIS program at the University of Denver) excitedly telling me that she’s attending her first library conference in a few weeks, I thought it was appropriate to pass along Stephen Abrams’ conference tips. It’s a bit long, but worth the time spent.
This was posted to the state-wide Iowa librarian’s mailing list so I don’t think there’s much of an issue with me posting it here. (I’ll admit I don’t know any details beyond what’s said here but it does sound like something stinks about the whole situation.)

Hi all:
Well the shit hit the fan! Marilyn Mouw retired
March 13, 2006, I asked her to take her retirement.
She is the sister-in-law of the city manager here
in Sioux Center and he objected to her retiring.
So he put pressure on the city council and they
put pressure on the Library Board and they fired
me at his request.
Be advised that when the add comes out if anyone
accepts the position they are walking into a hot
potato.
Nice knowing all of you.
Karen Bjorkman
former director Sioux Center Public Library
