My boss mentioned to me the other day that you can always tell who your fellow librarians are when you attend a conference, and I've been noticing that here. Something about the librarian look; it's not really a fashion thing, just a vibe.

Although I suppose it might have more to do with the bright chartreuse tote bags they gave us.

Today was quite interesting, and I think also useful in terms of ideas. I did end up sticking with the social computing track, and I saw sessions about podcasting, Flickr, MySpace and Facebook, and jazzing up library webpages with syndicated content. Most of it isn't super practical for my job at this moment, but I do have a renewed committment to getting the library into social networks. Chatted a little with that speaker after the session and got some tips (and a business card). Tomorrow I think will be more on similar topics, unless I decide to session hop again.

Then was the reception for graduates of my library school, which was nice. Only one person there I recognized from my time there, but we had a pleasant chat, and I talked with several other folks as well, including the new director of the school (who seems a decent and personable fellow. I got a much better vibe off him than the woman who used to be the director when I was there, whom I never really cared for). Then I was conferenced out, so I skipped the evening session (which was more about hardcore online scholarship which isn't so relevant to me right now anyway).

It's been fun, and tomorrow will be useful I think, but it will also be nice to sleep in my own bed and talk to my husband and pet my cats.

Ten years. Plenty of time for Kinoc to think about everything that had passed between them, to consider how he had lost his best friend.
