Are you out there?

Lucy says: We've been listening for two full days to wonderful people talking about Web 2.0; the overriding feature of this is social community. This means people talk to each other electronically, and one of the ways they do this is--stay with me here--commenting on blogs. Every time we get online, we anxiously scroll down to see what somebody--anybody--has to say about all this great stuff we're experiencing. The silence is deafening. Come on, folks, at least comment on the photos! We're headed into day 3, and looking forward to Josh and Maryann's presentation this afternoon. They'd like to know you're thinking of them, standing up in front of 100 or so people to talk about EVPL. And speaking of that--last night we had a presentation by a Dutch team making a documentary about libraries, and particularly gaming, and our own Maryann was interviewed. Her responses were so enthusiastic and so well-put-together that there's no doubt the interview will be part of the final cut. And just in case that news isn't sufficiently earth-shaking--during the presentation we experienced a 5.6 earthquake! Well, some of us did; Todd, sitting right beside us, somehow missed it. He's not pleased . . .
