metablog
I hate metablogging as much as the next guy, but here I go again. 🙂 Blogging is likely to be really light over the next week, given that I will be involved in an ongoing interview process, and working my ass off with research and presentation prep.
I’ll probably use the blog to think out loud about some information literacy concepts….do any of my readers have thoughts about the concept? What does the phrase mean to you? In what ways has the concept of “literacy” changed in the last 5 years? As a secondary question: what do you wish you had been told about research/the library when you were a freshman, that you later found useful?

When the president talks to god
Looking around the ‘net for a copy of the new(er) Bright Eyes single, When the President Talks to God.
Found it on iTunes for 99 cents.
Then I found this link, through the publisher, for a free iTunes download of the song.
Thought to myself, “Self…that is really odd. Why would the publisher provide a free download through the iTunes interface, when iTunes charges for it? Why not simply have the iTunes link be a free download? Or instead provide an MP3 download on your site rather than pushing people through iTunes…”
Just another oddity in the world of DRM/copyright.

Happy New Year
Hope that everyone has a great 2006. I was going to follow Justin’s lead and take a look at the “most popular” posts and such for the year, but I swapped web providers midway through, and only have the more recent info. Plus, I’m lazy. And I’m in the middle of updating to WordPress 2.0. So that will have to wait.
Here’s hoping the 2006 kicks 2005’s ass. Cause 2005 wasn’t very kind.
