Bam! I've made new T-shirts: http://www.cafepress.com/libra... Do the fonts look OK? I'm thinking the "Shovers & Makers" needs to be larger. - joshua m. neff

here's a link to the map - http://thelsw.org/node/20 OR http://librarysociety.pbwiki.c... - Courtney S.

okie dokie, I'm on both maps now - martha ☮

Courtney, I don't think all LSW members have placed themselves on the map. (I, of course, maybe wrong.) - Jill Hurst-Wahl

There is pretty much nothing that *all* LSW people have done. Which is kinda cool. I'm in Colorado Springs. Might I see you at ALA Midwinter in Denver? - Steve Lawson

On the map. Two of us within a couple of miles, right inside of DC. - Julian

I know of at least four more in DC, with a few nearby in Maryland. We could have a regional chapter! Or at least a pub night. Yeah, I think I like the pub night idea. - jönαthaη

I am likely not anywhere near anywhere you will be going, but I may try to make it down to Denver around Midwinter, if finances, weather, and timing allow. - laura x

Sydney Australia. Come on over - Fiona Bradley

Added myself to the map, plus if any LSW people want to share on Dopplr I'm there as well (usually travel once a quarter for work): http://www.dopplr.com/travelle.... You can do a lot of customization to protect your privacy and that of your friends. - Steven Kaye

I'm having a hard time believing I'm the only one in Seattle - Nikki D. ~ eagledawg

Doubt any of you are coming to Scotland, but am going to Denver so would be keen to meet up. - Jaclyn

Fremantle, Western Australia. I would be most isolated, but there are another couple of LSWers in this town too. - Kathryn Greenhill

...and already on both maps. Another in Perth. Western Australia. - suelibrarian

In the library town of Champaign-Urbana, I'm the only LiSieWig? That can't be. - librarienne

Would it be worth sending a message to the group in LinkedIn asking people to "pin" themselves? - Jill Hurst-Wahl

I'll be honest, I don't really pay much attention to LinkedIn beyond approving people for membership. But that's just me. If you think it would be worth it, go for it, Jill. - joshua m. neff

I think that would be great Jill. - Jill, Superhero Librarian

I don't pay much attention to LinkedIn, either, and I'm not on the map, but I am in Nashville, TN. - RachelW

I AM SHOCKED -- that Steve Lawson is coming to ALA Midwinter. - jokrausdu

Joe, I'm just coming to hang out. Not registering or anything. Keep your pants on. ;) - Steve Lawson

Added myself to both maps, thanks! - Ruth Kneale

on both maps - bob frasier

Okay...I've posted something in LinkedIn. Let's see if it helps. BTW Thanks to everyone who has added themselves to the maps! (I wasn't actually on the Google Map until today, so I was also part of the problem.) - Jill Hurst-Wahl

I'm having trouble pinning myself in Philadelphia. - Jill O'Neill

I'm in too. - Jαsοn Puckett

Heck, I'll give you 35 cents for the issue... - jokrausdu

Looks like the comics I made when I was 20- except your art and writing are better. :) - David Rothman (☤)

Rochelle++ :))) - ♫ Rahsheen™

Amen, Rochelle, but you need real whipped cream. I could go for some pie! - Cyndy

Just had some. With homemade ginger-spiced whipped cream. It was worth it. :) - Squirrel Girl

Agreed - it's always time for Pumpkin Pie. - Sparky

I was just wanting some. Think I'll have a pumpkin latte and then go in search of pie. - Yolanda ♥s Nuttycakes

Rochelle took the words right out of my mouth. *lol* - Thankful Molly

never too early for pie - clarke thomas

Remember kids - pie is healthy for breakfast. It's like toast with jam. A lot of jam. - Sparky

Pie is good for breakfast. No worse than a danish. - Jill, Superhero Librarian

i think pumpkin pie makes a terrific breakfast, more so than any other pie - Melissa Maskevich

Health benefits of pumpkin: Pumpkin meat is very high in carotenoids. They're what give pumpkins their orange color—but that's the least of their benefits. Carotenoids are really good at neutralizing free radicals, nasty molecules that can attack cell membranes and leave the cells vulnerable to damage. Pumpkins are also high in lutein and zeaxanthin, which scavenge free radicals in the lens of the eye. Therefore, they may help prevent the formation of cataracts and reduce the risk of macular degeneration, a serious eye problem than usually results in blindness. Besides carotenoids, lutein, and zeaxanthin, which are all antioxidants, pumpkins have a lot of common nutrients, like iron, zinc, and fiber. Iron, of course, is needed by red blood cells. Zinc deficiency may be related to osteoporosis of the hip and spine in older men. And fiber is important for bowel health. - Squirrel Girl

Apparently, pumpkin pie is the BEST kind of breakfast you can give your body. - Squirrel Girl

The only problem is that staff don't have admin rights to work PCs & can't use Firefox, so it's not as easy as it could be for staff to add bookmarks. & because staff can't customize their browsers, it discourages them somewhat from playing with delicious & other things. - joshua m. neff

I think my colleagues might be less keen than me on del.icio.us - I do keep hold of some information that's relevant, in addition to my own stuff, and when anyone asks me if I "remember that site that.... " then I can often find it (if it's there!). Would be useful to be able to "post to" a particular account rather than having to log out and log in again. - Jo Brodie

Joshua - you can't use Firefox at all? Wow. Man, if I was a PhD student I would *love* to go around the country studying library staff work-flow. Some very eye-opening information there, me thinks. - librarienne

Please do it, Librarienne. The WTFery around computers in librarianship is astonishing. - Dorothea Salo
