I'm having trouble with slideshare (and facebook and my email and...) in the meantime, here is the presentation for tonight's guest lecturer presentation. [googleapps domain="docs" dir="present/embed" query="id=dkcxvp2_1748gm22gbfr" width="410" height="342" /]enjoy!

I can't believe I never posted this beyond delicious.com. Sorry! So there, ya go -- free cataloging tools.

Depending on what browser and resolution you are using, you may find that your content (such as blog posts) which have embedded videos are running over your blog post area. You COULD change your stylesheet, but if everything works except for embedded Youtube videos, an easier answer might be to change the width of the Youtube player. This is super easy to do.First you need to find a video that you want to use. ;-) Not all Youtube videos are embeddable and many copyrighted ones are not.

Sorry for the late notice, this just came across my desk.As far as I can see, it is free.-------------------------------https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/948880016Mobile Learning Fundamentals: Innovation Showcase and Real-World Examples - Presented by A.J.

Class size is limited. Live interactive demo, too!As the Open Source and Free Software movements gain ground, more and more open-source options are becoming available to libraries. In this two-hour online class, will discuss what Open Source does and doesn’t mean, and will introduce a variety of different types of library applications (with an emphasis on web site tools) for which there are open-source versions available. http://tr.im/NnohYay, I'm teaching... (again)....

A question asked by one of my coworkers (and you all thought I just answered social media, opensource, or database questions, right? LOL)Q: How does a phone text to email? Does the computer have to have anything magic?A: You can text to any email system. It's the phone that has the magic. Each texting phone (which is just about every cell phone except for a few REALLY old ones) has an email address attached to the phone number, so it's essentially email to email. SMS (short message service) = texting, which is based on really old GSM (Global System Messaging) which was back with early cells.

Didn't know that there were more templates beyond what is listed in google docs (and didn't notice that 'search templates' link in google docs?) Well, now you do. You can also get 'em here.... and here is how to create your own (well, sort of).
