Lots of things have happened in the past few weeks:
- I got my first professional archivist job in Colorado (see below post)
- I found a house in Colorado (see Flickr pics…and picture it without the rasta flag and other college paraphernalia)
- I had my last day at the office where I have worked (in a non-archival capacity) since 2003
But, the most momentous of all….
I am finally the proud owner of both a 15″MacBook Pro and an iPod nano! I have to confess, there was a subsidy in the case of the MacBook, but my PC was starting to make me a little nervous (I got the blue screen of death a few times) and I was really sick of being yoked to my desk at home. The nano, well, I couldn’t resist, and I’m glad I didn’t. My trips to Colorado for both the job interview and the house-hunting were relatively stress-free, and I think it was largely due to the Ella at my fingertips.
I will be traveling to the Society of American Archivists conference tomorrow, where I’ll be attending the DACS (Describing Archives: A Content Standard), Managing the Digital University Desktop, Advanced Electronic Records Management, and Digitization Matters workshops, in addition to the annual meeting. I am pretty darn psyched.
Also, as far as I can tell, the “Blogger Get-Together” (which, incidentally, is not just for the bloggers, but for anyone involved in making the annual meeting more “2.0″…Flickr taggers, wiki creators, etc.) will be held on Thursday at lunch, exact times and locations TBA. This is probably one of the only chances I’ll get to meet some of the other archival bloggers/wiki-creators, etc. out there, so I hope everyone who’s there and who even sort of fits this description will come.
Be forewarned, I’ll probably take pictures.

Hi
It’s nice you get yourself a new 15″Mac Book Pro and an Ipod Nano.
Apple iPod and other mp3, and mp4 players have gone from simple music players to multimedia must-have, and you’ll
find thousands of options on this website to fit your lifestyle and budget.
Before you can listen to music, podcasts, and audiobooks or watch movies and TVshows, you need to transfer content from your desktop computer or laptop to your iPod, mp3, or mp4. iPods come with Apple iTunes software to help you organize tracks and transfer music.
Incase you are looking for your next ipod gadgets at BARGAIN prices and free itunes, mp3 and zune downloads just go to The Ultimate IPOD, MP3, MP4 and Gadgets website.

Brilliant – now that is perspective! I think we frequently react in understanding or discrepancy because of our feelings, but listening another side, turbulently faced, really makes us think! I do not mind understanding what you stated here as it has really caught the respect of the topic in a worthwhile good sense. With that, writer, I toast to you.

There are certainly lots of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great level to convey up. I provide the thoughts above as general inspiration however clearly there are questions just like the one you bring up where an important thing will likely be working in sincere good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around issues like that, but I’m positive that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls really feel the influence of only a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

I precisely had to thank you so much once more. I’m not certain what I would’ve accomplished without the tricks revealed by you relating to such a area of interest. Entirely was a very fearsome case in my view, but considering a skilled approach you processed it made me to cry over delight. I’m happier for your support and as well , hope you really know what a great job your are undertaking educating others through the use of a site. More than likely you haven’t met all of us.

Its like you read my mind! You appear to understand a lot as you wrote the ebook in it or something. I think that you simply could do with a few videos a bit, but instead of that, that is excellent blog. A great read. I’ll certainly be back.
