I took over 650 photos at CiL2008 and have uploaded them all to a flickr set. As it was to be expected, some where better than others. Here, IMHO, my 70 best.

Game On!
03
Apr 2008
What: Gaming (& Gadgets!) Night
Where: CIL 2008, Jefferson Room
When: Sunday, April 6th, 5:30-8:00 pm
How much: FREE
Who: You and other people interested in gaming
Jenny Levine and Aaron Schmidt have given a few gaming workshops at past Computers in Libraries and Internet Librarian conferences. After the sessions we’ve opened up the room to anyone interested in playing some games and/or learning about gaming. It’s proven to be a popular and really fun time, so this year Information Today has turned the post-workshop gameplay into a featured event. With refreshments even!
They’ve assembled an impressive array of games!
Systems: Nintendo Wii, Playstation 2, and Xbox 360. We’ll also have two Nintendo DS handhelds.
Games: Wii Sports, DDR, Hotel Dusk, Guitar Hero III, Professor Layton and the Curious Village, Wario Smooth Moves, whatever you bring, and Rock Band.
Since they’ll have three systems going at once, we’re opening up the option of an honest to goodness tournament with prizes. You probably want to know which game, huh? Well, it’s up to you. Sign up on the CIL08 wiki titled CIL08 Gaming Night to play Rock Band, Guitar Hero, or DDR. We’ll play whichever game gets the most signups!
In addition, Chris Harris is bringing some modern board games. Bring your own games, bring your latest shiny, new gadgets, and we’ll see you Sunday night!

Feb 2008
As I posted yesterday there’s a Twitter feed for Computers in Libraries 2008. @stevelawson has suggested that I run a contest to create an icon for the account. So, ok, I will. Create an icon for the CIL08 Twitter account and send it to me. On March 17th I’ll post all submissions on this blog. Vote by leaving a comment. The winner will be declared on March 21st. (In the case of a tie I’ll decide.) The only real rules: Keep it clean and keep it within the technical specs required by Twitter (Maximum size of 700k. JPG, GIF, PNG.)

CIL2008 Twitter feed

Feb 2008
It’s coming up on that time again. I’ve set up a Twitter account for the 2008 Computers in Libraries conference. If you’re going to be at the conference and twittering, contact me and I’ll tell the account to follow you. (You’ll need to friend the account back if you’re protected your updates.) Once the conference has started, or before if you’d like, use your RSS reader to subscribe to the CIL08 & Friends feed to get all the tweets from the conference.
