Putting a face to a…

The era of meeting someone and “finally putting a face with the name” is still alive and well but I’ve now started “putting a face to the blog.” Two stories:

Just ran into to Darlene Fitcher (University of Saskatchewan) who mentioned my library card collection in her presentation last night. Turns out she does the Web site for Neal-Schuman, one of my publishers, so she knew of me when she stumbled over the collection while prepping her presentation, (Turns out she didn’t find it through Google afterall.) Anyway, she said she was glad to be putting a face to the name. She also told me she read the after all last night and enjoyed my posts from the conference.

The person giving the next presentation, Jenny Levine, is the person who first asked my about my laptop yesterday. Turns out she’s The Shifted Librarian one of the blogs that I ready regularly. So now I’m finally putting a face to a blog. As I mentioned earlier I’ll be meeting Chris of L.A.C.K. tonight at dinner so I’ll be doing it again in a few hours.
