FeedDemon Wins SIA Award


FeedDemon Wins SIA Award 07/19/2004 11:26 PM

Last night I returned from this year's Shareware Industry Conference, and I'm pleased to report that FeedDemon won an SIA award for "Best Internet Enhancement or Utility." I'm not much of a public speaker so my acceptance speech was shockingly brief, but I do want everyone who attended to know how thankful I am that I won.

Unfortunately, my laptop's modem died while I was away, so I've got quite a bit of catching up to do. If you're waiting for a reply to an email or forum question, you should hear from me during the next 24 hours or so.

Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL), 2005
http://www.jcdl2005.org/

The Joint Conference on Digital Libraries is a major international forum focusing on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and social issues. The theme of JCDL 2005 highlights the powerful role of digital libraries as cyberinfrastructure. This cyberinfrastructure has the potential to engender the creation of new tools, research methodologies, and processes that will enable scientists and learners to investigate the natural world, the social world, and the human-built environment in new and previously unimaginable ways. As global interests in computation, information management, networking, and intelligent sensing converge, the conduct of research and education will be transformed. They welcome researchers and practitioners with broad and diverse interests including: technical advances, usage and impact studies, policy analyses, social and institutional implications, theoretical contributions, interaction and design advances, and innovative applications in the sciences, humanities, and education. Participation is sought from all parts of the world and from the full range of disciplines and professions involved in digital library research and practice, including computer science, information science, librarianship, archival science and practice, museum studies and practice, technology, medicine, social sciences, and humanities. All domains - academe, government, industry, and others - are encouraged to participate as presenters or attendees. This has been added to Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
