It's now 8:30am on day 2 of CODI 2006 in Salt Lake City and I guess most delegates will be breakfasting at the moment.
Let's catch up with the action…
Over at The Gordian Knot, Susan "suzyq" Johns-Smith has posted her analysis of the opening keynote speeches:

Ben has confirmed that those librarians were doing [...]

DUG/HUG 2006 – Day Two
The only problem with offering to do presentations is that they don't leave you any time to blog about the actual event itself!!!
For those who prefer an electronic version, here are the 3 presentations I gave today:
Introduction to Web 2.0 / Library 2.0
Email Notices at Huddersfield
Sentry at Huddersfield
If you have any questions or comments, you [...]
DUG/HUG 2006 – Day One
ARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!
It's 01:02am and I just spent the last 30 minutes writing up an in-depth blog entry for day one… by the time I submitted it, the University of Lincoln network has timed my web connection out and refused to reload the page containing the text I'd just typed.

This is something I originally coded in January 2006, briefly blogged about in mid February, then got [...]
It's July already?!?
I can't believe how quickly this summer if flying by!
The UK is currently broiling itself under the first decent spell of sunny weather we've had this year, and the annual DUG/HUG (Dynix User Group/Horizon User Group) conference is just 9 days away — let's hope the weather holds until then
This years conference is [...]
