Tell Your Boss: Benefits of Telecommuting | Librarian in Black B
At a time when we’re looking at reduced staffing in libraries, reduced salaries, reduced benefits, and reduced morale, it might be a good time to ask your boss about telecommuting (working from home) opportunities.

Twitter: An Asymmetrical Chat Room
Back in July, I wrote a blog post titled “ How Twitter has changed my life ” in which I stated that the best way to explain Twitter to non-tech friends is to show, not tell . Giving examples of Twitter’s impact on my life has been far more effective than trying to describe the service in layman’s terms. The blog post has had a lot of traffic in five months, and visitors spend an average of 5 minutes and 17 seconds on the page (for me, that’s a lot).
