New Things to Come

Currently I've been working on a new website for my presentations and handouts.  I've also been working on catching up on my research readings. Which, you guessed it, means new blog posts!!

Other than that, I've been working really hard on maintain a number of projects at Crystal Bridges.  We launched a new version of the app a few weeks ago and it's been going well.  And of course there are always new files to published for iTunes U.

I'm also looking for some new tech podcasts.  Bring forth the recommendations, and thanks in advance!

Missing Tapes Update

  Well, I’m still looking for the interview tapes of my grandfather and my mother-in-law. In this round I’ve learned not to trust labels. I found a commercial tape in a “homemade” cassette holder. That prompted me to go back through all my commercial tapes and look in the cases. I found some home tapes in them and got all my commercial tapes back in their cases. I found a tape that was labeled with my husband’s name, but I listened to it anyway. It was an accompaniment tape from my voice lessons. I updated the label.

Book Reviews

I'm often asked to review books on tech topics and I'm finally getting some time to work on it.

However, I would love some suggestions on books that you think need to be reviewed. I've also been asked to write an article on podcasting for a Botanical Garden publication. I'm pretty excited about that as I love the outdoors and gardens, but I don't often get to do a lot of work with them. I've also started diligently working on an exhibit that I've been put in charge of to open in 2010. My plan is for it to be our first publicly curated exhibit and we will have the public vote on what artifacts will actually be included in the exhibit.
