pq: "The librarian estimates that there are some 40,000 science journals published every year; if 3,000 libraries pitched in, he calculates, "then each of them would have to index 15 journal titles.""

Actually I suspect you'd want more redundancy than that -- maybe 50% overcoverage, which would mean 20 titles each. Still do-able.

"Hi Steven — I completely agree that UX isn’t a “trend” (I said as much during the panel and in my blog post about the session). Really, all that talk about UX was just to frame some honest-to-goodness trends I was/am seeing in UX design. Specifically: the impact mobile devices is having on the way we design for other formats. I couldn’t agree more that UX needs to become part of how we *all* (not just UX folks) think about delivering resources/services/whatever to our users. I appreciate all your posts & articles on the topic — keep fighting the good fight!"

I might write a post on this--I think that most TTTrendsters, in the past, have interpreted "trends" as "things that really matter this year (and maybe in the future)," not as "trendy fads," and I think your selection of UX is solidly in that pattern. It's a definitional issue... [Just left another comment instead.]

@Walt - as a total TTT noob, it's good to know that I was somewhat on track in my take on the "trends" part :)

Amanda: As one who deliberately dropped off the panel years before this year's reboot, I thought you caught the spirit of TTT precisely--but that's only my impression.

lifestreaming for a university. neat. like the disclaimer: "A word of warning: There are no editors on the internet. What you see might not always be the best Cornell has to offer."
