Comment on Wikipedia is good enough, good grief by Librarianship First Principles | PomeRantz

Librarianship First Principles | PomeRantz — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 21:02:24 +0000

[...] Libraries used to be about the only game in town here, but no longer: commercial help desks and social Q&A sites like Yahoo Answers have cut into that market. The edge that libraries have here is (1) that libraries have access to source materials (see points 1 & 2, above), and (2) that librarians care a lot about providing quality information and helping the user. Edge #1 is important, but less critical than it used to be, since see point 2 above. Edge #2 is critical, but librarians often trip over that one: as a profession we’re not very good at acknowledging that good enough is good enough. [...]

[...] Terrell Russell: This Old Network : Promises and Privacy of Self-Disclosure in Online Communities "I just read the most plausible of law review papers suggesting the potential for protection of a private space within social network sites (SNS). Fellow UNC grad student Woodrow Hartzog proposes the use of Promissory Estoppel as a means to protect self-disclosure in online communities. It would create a type of contract or agreement between users of a site whereby a protection would exist for information disclosed in that community or site. If someone else shares the disclosed, private information, with a few caveats, they can be held accountable."

Do you have any resources you recommend for learning about OAuth? I just got back from Drupalcon in DC where they were talking about integrating OAuth into Drupal 7. I’m still quite confused about what it means for me today and what I can do to speed its implementation.

By the way, I found your post via the Barcamp RDU list of people. I’m a SILS grad.

Comment on Later Button poster at iConference 2009 by Terrell Russell

No, they didn’t mostly say a month. “One Month” was the max elbow of the data that didn’t consist of “Now” and “Never”. “One Month” was only part of the “Later” collapsed category.

We’re currently planning a follow-up to help validate some of this and tease out a little more detail. We didn’t ask “Why”, so we don’t have that answer yet.

I think the motivation for answering ‘later’ is explained in part by the fact that these shared items have context and meaning that are diluted as time goes by. But if shared “immediately”, they may mean quite a bit more to particular audience members and to the person themselves.

Perhaps something akin to “that’s who I was, not who I am”.

What? I don’t get it. You asked “How long ago must your photo have been taken before you are comfortable sharing it?” and people mostly said a month?? Why? What is the motivation for waiting a month? Am I missing something?

This is really interesting mapping. It also shows the impact of how many earned their doctorate and did not then go onto being hired as faculty at a library school. Their trail stops dead-like.
