PhotoSynth

I saw this on Pogue's Posts and immediately went to the website for PhotoSynth and downloaded the software. It allows you to turn a few hundred photos into a 3-D virtual rendering.

I'll definitely be playing with this during the weekend.

Other Law Library-Related Ning Networks?

From the AALL CS-SIS Web 2.0 Challenge, I know there's now an AALL Federal Law Libraries Caucus Ning group:
http://fedlawlib.ning.com/

And I know the ALLUNY and SFALL chapters of AALL are on Ning:

http://alluny.ning.com/

http://joinsfall.ning.com/

Any other law library-related groups on Ning other than Law Libraries and Librarians and its sub-groups?

Thanks,
Lyo.

First blog post.

Okay. So now I have 4 email accounts. I have facebook. I have this new "Law Libraries and Librarians" networking site. I have a cell phone, a home phone. I have two chat accounts--NO, three. Gad.

AALS Workshop for Law Librarians

Wondering what your friends and colleagues are up to in Cleveland this week at the AALS Workshop for Law Librarians? I've posted several short video clips on Flickr.

In each case I asked "What is the most valuable thing you've gotten from this workshop so far?" Look for more clips coming tomorrow.

New Features

PBwiki doesn't integrate all that well--you'll have to pop out a new window to use it--but it looks workable.

Welcome everyone!

Wow--this room is filling up fast. I hope people will use the forums (fora?) to talk about those pressing issues. And, we're hoping to use the meebo chat room for some scheduled talks but it is also available for informal chats.

What a great place to seek support and advice from our colleagues! Thanks to Jim Milles for creating this space for us.

Cheers,
Connie
