My Experience with RSS, Bloglines & PBWiki

I had no problem setting up my bloglines account or setting up RSS Feeds. However in attempting to set up a Wiki - which is what I think will be really useful to me in my day to day work I encountered technical difficulties. PBWiki indicates that all of my email address bounces back and PBWiki support will get to this within 24 hours. Frustrating!

After numerous attempts to set up and IM account using AIM I have given up and will use my goolge account. For those intersted my screen name is Beckham Osborne.

I realized that the link to my blog was not live so I'm trying this again:

I found setting up a new blog relatively easy. However, while I can certainly see the benefits of blogging as a means of up to the minute news and information - such as the way we are using a blog in the Law Library - I'm not sure about my personal blog. Do I want to put my thoughts out there for everyone? Does anyone really care about what I have to say on my blog? Hmmm... things to ponder.

Reference at the UK Law Library

The University of Kentucky Law Library now has a fully staffed Reference Department! The Librarians include, Amy Osborne, Sarah Glassmeyer, Michelle Cosby and Ryan Valentin - all of whom are all ready to assist patrons with any of legal research. In addition, the librarians will be offering 50 minute classes this semester on a variety of research topics.
