Some quickies for Aug 22 2006
- Joel of Joel on Software is looking for software that will scan information off a book and download Library of Congress info. He found a couple programs but neither will print labels. It’s surprising there aren’t more offerings with the large collections some people have. Would probably be a money saver for small libraries as well.
- Jon Udell posts that del.icio.us isn’t simply backed by a database, it can function as a database.
- Casey discusses how easy it is to tweak the catalog once you have a backend that’s a bit more robust.
- What if drugs were legal? (video) - via Metafilter
- A drop-in Atom Publisher Protocol for WordPress is taking shape. The more I work with Atom the more I like it, though I haven’t gotten the chance to play with APP yet. I’m doubtful I will ever produce flavors or RSS in the future. I’ve also been thinking of playing with Wordpress as an Atom store. There’s some semantics in the Atom feed I don’t really take advantage of, such as related links.
