BLOGGY RESEARCH

The inspiration continues with Fresh Styles and New Masters of Photoshop. Have spent all weekend developing a collage for a webpage to celebrate my upcoming six years on the Web. And a lively year this one has been. Unfortunately, it has me reliving the emotions of September 11th. Deep breath and on with posterity.

Hopping down Jessamyn's librarian research trail:

Cindy's A Closer Look at Weblogs. Despite her unfortunate opinion...

"...most Weblogs are too personal to be useful to anyone other than online voyeurs"

...I did mine several interesting links from her page which led to other interesting links.

• Weblog on Researching the Web
• The Virtual Acquisition Desk
• Research & Reference Resources Events of September 11, 2001
• Weblog for the Redwood City Public Library; here's their list of other library blogs.
• The page of only weblogs
• Just in time for Halloween, Horror search engine
• Search engine for news and weblogs

From A List Apart: The Trouble with Em N En by Peter Sheerin. He says that the entire range from  through Ÿ are invalid characters. Oh no!

Speaking of invalid characters: chicken little media. (Thanks, Dave.)

Avoiding a new cold war.

From The Onion: Hijackers surprised to find themselves in hell (Thanks, MetaFilter.) Which goes along with another Onion story, God angrily clarifies 'don't kill' rule.

(Christmas—and I say it quietly since it's not Halloween yet—is coming and here are some good ideas if you're feeling que craftsy this year: Containers to put things in. This link found at Not Martha where you can find her recipe for how to make lip balm.)
