It's All Over Now but the Waiting







It's All Over Now but the Waiting

It's All Over Now but the Waiting 06/22/2005 02:19 AM

I’ve finally been able to post a few things because for the first time in about three weeks, I’m not spending my nights working on grants. In Illinois, 2006 LSTA grant submissions were due Friday, June 17, so it’s all over but the waiting now. Which is a killer, because I’m very excited about both of the grants MLS is involved in.

  1. MLS submitted a grant to create an online, statewide book discussion group for audio ebooks called “One State, One Listen” by adding simultaneous use titles from netLibrary/Recorded Books and OverDrive to ListenIllinois. Of course, I think it would be totally cool, but we’ll see what the grant reviewers think.
  2. MLS is also mentioned as a supporting agency in the big gaming grant I mentioned last month. Aaron submitted the grant under the Thomas Ford Memorial Library, and we ended up with 23 participating libraries out of 35 applicants. Response was incredible, and I’m truly sorry we couldn’t take every one of them. Everyone that read the grant loved it, and we have some mighty big plans if we get it. This will truly be something never before seen in the library world.

So now we wait until September to hear back. I don’t want to say much more until then, so light a candle for us!

Oh, and thanks to Su Bochenski for driving all the way to Springfield to make sure they were there on Friday before the deadline!

I've arrived at the Hotel Fundador in Santiago, Chile (free wireless in the lobby).  It is difficult to fault Chileans in the department of hospitality.  One of this Weblog's readers, Jorge Tambley, picked me up at the airport on Sunday morning and dropped me off at the hotel.  Then he came back a couple of hours later to invite me to lunch with his wife and kids.  Then he took me to the small airport to hunt for flight schools and onward to the various neighborhoods of Santiago.  Jorge provided some insight into the world of the Chilean computer programmer.  Things seem to be done on a somewhat smaller scale than in the U.S.  The programmer needs to be more in contact with the client, with the users, and more aware of business problems and how to solve them.  Consulting rates and real estate prices are in a more favorable ratio than in the U.S.  A top programmer might earn $70/hour and a newly constructed small condo in Santiago sells for $25,000.  A reasonably nice house is $100,000 and a Las Vegas-style McMansion is $225,000.

With some very kind assistance from Cristian Levy of Amity Tours (http://www.amitytours.cl/) I've begun to sketch out a trip to Valparaiso (Dec 30) and La Serena plus environs (Jan 2-8). 

It is 8:30 pm now.  Only about one more hour of daylight...

I'm tired of waiting. The iPhoto book printing service never did arrived in Singapore, and I doubt the iTunes Music Store will ever materialise here either. So, I'm throwing this out, instead, to the Scobleizer: when will Microsoft bring its Media Center PC to Singapore?

:-)

P.S: Sheal Israel: Scoble is an evangelist for Microsoft and is totally enthused about its technology. What is news is that Scoble, at times, is among Microsoft's toughest critics... He's the most honest company evangelist youwill find, anywhere.

Waiting for SyndiCon I


Waiting for SyndiCon I 03/06/2004 01:48 AM

So BloggerCon II is scheduled to take place on April 17 this year, again in Boston at Harvard.

Happy: there will be a session on weblogs and libraries!
Sad: I have no budget to attend (although I'm really pushing Steven to go).

I'm glad there's a follow-up and that these folks will continue exploring the impact and potential of blogging, but I'm also ready for SyndiCon (or AggregatorCon or whatever you want to call it). As evidenced by Will Richardson's vision among other things, it's time to take syndication to the next level - make it more user-friendly, integrate it into other tools, figure out what users want, and in general take RSS to the next level. Same types of sessions - education, politics, business, libraries, journalism, etc.

The RSS Winterfest was a good start, but it's difficult to over-emphasize the value of this type of conversation taking place in-person, face-to-face. In addition, how great would it be to include an "RSS Hackfest" (led by Andrew Grumet) to get us BitTorre nt + RSS, authentication, better customization, metadata, and more?!
