Why use Twitter
When Twitter (twitter.com) first become available, I was wondering how could I use this tool? Since signing up (back in Feb), I have not touched the tool until this past July.
Professional associations, newspapers, magazines, etc. are now using Twitter for short entries (entries can only be about 125 words) discussing websites, current events, what's happening at an annual conference. Librarians and information specialists from AALL and SLA are using Twitter to report on sessions during the annual meetings.
Then I had a "V-8" moment! I found a use for Twitter. SEC and IR (Investor Relations) Reports are now on Twitter. It is great for CI work--lots of newspapers and magazines are twittering. And, all groups have RSS feeds (good for my Bloglines reader!).
Today on LexBlog, Owner Kevin O'Keefe, talked about the first real-time trial proceedings coverage that appeared on Twitter. Will this be the future of trial proceedings?

AALL: Bloggers Meeting
We had about 20-30 attendees at the AALL: Second Annual Bloggers Get Together and a special guest: Ernie the Attorney. http://www.ernietheattorney.net/
Ernie is a lawyer living in New Orleans and has been blogging for about 5 years.
It was wonderful to see and hear Ernie the Attorney. I was so glad he could make it and his insight was, IMHO, inspiring. I am definitely going to read one of the books he mentioned: Everything Is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder. Information Anxiety was another title that I read while getting my Masters Degree, which is also worth the time to read and digest.
Kudos to Mary Whisper and Library Boy for blogging the session!

And, the DALL blog is being read outside of DALL membership! Jennifer and I heard some great compliments about the blog from various librarians at the AALL meeting.
