LibraryThing

I already use Novelist Lists to keep track of books but love this site for the social data and ease of adding titles.

This was the closest I could come to the real me (except for the balloons) and it's me 50 pounds and 20 years ago!! Very sad.

Favorite Library Blog

The blog I like to check regularly is BooksForKidsBlog, written by a retired elementary librarian. I've read and enjoyed quite a few of her recommendations in the J, Y, and YA categories since I first started to read this blog last spring.

Favorite Flickr Web Application

One of my favorite Flickr web applications is retrievr, "an experimental service which lets you search and explore in a selection of Flickr images by drawing a rough sketch." The rough sketch may also be colored and the images which are retrieved are just beautiful.

On the Lower Emerald Pool Trail looking up at the Upper Emerald Pool Trail. That's about the point when I was telling the rest of the family to call for the park rangers to airlift me out!

7 1/2 Habits
