I’m tired. I had trouble adding this photo.
Have you ever been to Hamilton, Ontario? It has a reputation as a steeltown but it is that and more. I found some interesting photographs on Flickr. Check it out:

Hello. I feel like I should introduce myself all over again; it’s been so long since I last posted.
I worked with del.icio.us today, a tool for social bookmarking. I’ve imported my “favorites” from Internet Explorer to del.icio.us, which means that I should be able to access these bookmarks from any computer –which is great. When looking these files over in del.icio.us, I see that I need to rename my “tags”. This may be a lengthy task because I may reorganize as well. After overhauling, this could be a useful tool.
Today I added some links to the Digital Reference Shelf wiki to useful cataloguing sites. This wiki is full of information which I find quite useful for some tricky reference questions.
After editing, some colleagues prompted me to “comment” on another page. This was rather slowgoing to start because I kept looking at the “Recent site activity” menu for the page I wanted –thinking a history file resided there– rather than looking through the navigation menu. I missed the obvious on that one!
Later, for greater accessibility, I renamed my page. This function seemed buried to me but the help page, clearly and promptly, got me on track.
I added content to the “My favourite books” wiki, adding my personal (recent) favourites to the sidebar. After stumbling along, I actually got it done, although I did confer with a team leader since the copy/paste function failed to work and, yes, this was witnessed. In the end, I enjoyed doing this because I liked the topic. After looking over other book lists, I was inspired to add links from my titles to amazon.com. Did I use some techie jargon here?
