Yessir, a new catalogue!!!

Well, I went ahead and gave our new library catalogue a little test drive. I think it's a huge improvement. I got to where I was only using OPAC as a last resort. That sucker was WORTHLESS. In short I am thrilled about this new catalogue. Looking forward to getting to know it better.

The three library related feeds that I subscibed to are as follows: Aweful Library Books, Library Journal News, and the Unquiet Librarian.

I think this thing is pretty neat, and I have subscribed to other feeds, including the Missouri Theatre, The Columbia Tribune and various other blogs that I am following.
It's pretty fun learning this stuff.

Just took a gander at last.fm. What a neat site!! Users are able to search for any artist and see what other folks have to say about them. I am currently all into the band Punch Brothers. I was able to easily find them and was able learn things about them that I never knew. Also handy is the "similar artists" section. In that section I was able to view songs that I might not otherwise have heard of that I will probably like being a fan of the group whose site I just looked up. There is also a section for classical music. I haven't quite delved into this part of the site yet. But I sure plan to.
