This past weekend I attended Infocamp Seattle, an “unconference” presented by ASIS&T and the UW’s ischool. An “unconference” simply means that there are no planned events throughout the day – the participants are the presenters. Topics ranged from UX to using drupal to build a website to re-imagining the Reference Desks of the Future. I even hosted a discussion about Accessibility for those people with print disabilities — since I’m new, but have some insight after completing a Literature Review/Poster for Accessibility, I can share the basics of what I know, and, even better, I can get feedback from Accessibility Professionals and learn from them! Eura from WTBBL and Raymona from the Alliance of People with Disabilities both added much to the discussions. It was a good meeting, amidst two days of events that really helped broaden my knowledge base. Thanks, Infocamp Organizers!

- SearchResearch Challenge (5/25/22): Finding original patents? I found the most remarkable machine... ... just a few years ago. I'd gone to a farm auction in upstate New York where a longtime family in the area was getting rid of the old homestead and everything in it. If you've never been to such an auction, it's worthwhile, if only to see gadgets and gizmos that you wouldn't believe. At this auc […]
- Answer: Why... in New Orleans?Yep... I was in New Orleans... P/C Hitesh Choudhary... at a conference with just over 2,000 of my friends. It was a wonderful time, right up until the last day when I felt pretty sick (felt like a bad head cold + muscular soreness). I figured it was the flu, but out of an abundance of caution, I got a COVID RT test from the pharmacy and found that I was p […]
- Superb example of SearchResearch... in AlgeriaI have a wonderful video I want to recommend to you. It's about what this mysterious circle of circles is... In this video from Vox, they explore the limits of what you can find by internet searching, and go beyond the limit when they realize that they'll have to visit this site in person. It's not exactly around the corner: it's at 27 […]
