I’m currently doing a monthly online session for the Nebraska Library Commission’s NCompass Live series titled “Tech Talk with Michael.” In each session I’ve interviewed another librarian that’s doing something technologically interesting or innovative in their library. So far I’ve done interviews with the library in New York that’s circulating GPS devices, a two libraries here in Nebraska, one with a photo printing Kiosk, and another that’s using OpenDNS to filter their Net connection.
I’m looking for more folks to interview. Each interview lasts about 30 minutes and includes time for questions from the audience. The show is recorded and archived for later viewing online and for listening via the Commission’s podcast. If you’d like an opportunity to show off what’ you’re library’s doing, just drop me a line and we’ll get something scheduled.

About two weeks ago I was interviewed by Sarah Long, the Director of the North Suburban Library System in Chicago, for her Longshots podcast. Mostly we talk about library blogging and how to tell if your blog is successful. You can listen to it and other episodes on the Library Beat web site.
I’m a bit behind on my podcast listening so sorry for the delay in posting this. The first 45-ish minutes of This Week in Tech episode #144 covers the following topics and is definitely worth a listen.
The episode is listenable and downloadable from the TWiT site.
Last night I again participated in Uncontrolled Vocabulary and loved every minute of it. Cindi, another regular participant has written a great post about UV that talks about what’s in it for me? Go read it, listen to an episode or two, then set aside the time next Thursday night.
Episode #3 was recorded live last night. We tried to determine whether we’re hip or not but I’m not sure we came up with a clear answer.
Last night I participated in the inaugural episode of Greg Schwartz’s new podcast Uncontrolled Vocabulary. The Hollywood pitch is that it’s TWiT meets the library world. It was the most fun I’ve had on the phone with my pants on.
