http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelsphotos/45312710/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelcasey/44912824/ 🙂 I did an advcanced search…are there no more Librarians in Hardhats photos?
(What can you learn about folks by their Tag Cloud?”) Anne down in Australia turned me on to this term while we were preparing for my talk with Skype and Jybe. ! I love it. Have you gotten lost in tags yet? Now there clusters too!! Tag Cloud: A tag cloud is a visual depiction of content tags used on a website. Often, more frequently used tags are depicted in a larger font or otherwise emphasized. Selecting a single tag within a tag cloud will generally lead to a collection of items that are associated with that tag. Try these: […]
Flickr-Stalking: (verb) To browse through someone’s photostream with the intent of learning all about how they live their lives: where they go, what pets they have, what their living rooms look like, etc, includes in-depth investigations of their tags and their contact’s photostream and tags as well.
http://socialsoftware.weblogsinc.com/entry/1234000860052805/ I’m intrigued by the idea of clustering – associated tags for groups of like images, such as the Michigan Clusters here. It made me realize I need to pay attention to my tagging. If I want labrador retrievers and get to this page, I get to see all the variances in tags for those sweet yellow, black and chocolate hounds!

For example, librarian’s desks at flickr: http://flickr.com/groups/librariansdesks/ Here’s mine: http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelsphotos/sets/347976/ Flickr friends…feel free to tag away!
Brian from Jybe reports: I wanted to point you the University of Northern Illinois and this link – http://www.niulib.niu.edu/ask-books.cfm. They are using JYBE for VR at their library via IE – went live this week. Basically, if you want help, you install JYBE and then click the link to join a session – that link will automatically connect them with a librarian. Wowza.. take a look…

This INCREDIBLE handout was created by SJCPL’s own Kathryn Slott – who ROCKS! This one is for FIRE, a MAC OS X IM app, but you could adapt it for almost any IM client. Note the incredible attention to the Reference Interview! http://www.tametheweb.com/presentations/Fire_training.pdf
