Tom Davenport was the opening keynote speaker at Information Today’s KMWorld & Intranets 2005 last week in San Jose, CA. He did a great job, and now he’s written a blog piece about it.

Isn’t it great when an article appears in the non-library press about the great things information professionals are doing, especially when if focuses on talks from Information Today’s Internet Librarian. Check out this article by Jason Boog of Ziff-Davis Internet’s Publish; The Definitive Authority on Web Publishing and Print. His article is called,
Library 2.0 Movement Sees Benefits in Collaboration with Patrons and quotes Darlene Fichter, Jenny Levine and Aaron Schmidt.

Just noticed an upcoming continuing discussion on the topic of “the long tail”, mentioned by recent keynote speakers at Internet Librarian 2005 — Lee Raine and Liz Lawley. It’s happening online at the Long-Tail Camp.

Chris Anderson’s article in Wired magazine started the long tail discussions and now he has a blog on the topic and has a book coming out next year!
