It would make it sweeter if the colours could be customised...like I could do to the feedburner counter on the sidebar and you can do to a google CSE results search. A couple days after this post, I wote <a target="_blank" href="http://librariansmatter.com/blog/2007/01/07/blah-blah-blah-about-dewey/" rel="nofollow">this one</a>  linking to Christian Long's <a target="_blank" href="http://thinklab.typepad.com/think_lab/2007/01/the_future_of_l.html" rel="nofollow">Future of Learning Manifesto</a> . It tells us that millenials are not impressed by our "penpals in Bangledesh", they're kind of used ot it and we should get over it. After 16 years or so on the 'net, I can still be thrilled by this kind of thing. "Get over it Kathryn" :) Hi Ryan.

It's this sort of stuff that makes me think cross-national collaborations are possible in research (for me). Great post. I like some of the enhancements Meebo made to their interface as well. It seemed to me that one of the big barriers to a library using meebo was the difficulty of integrating it into a website color scheme. I think this is possible (or soon will be possible) now. You also reminded me of my promise to visit SL at least once a month. Up-up-and-away! :) For sure it is amazing how productive Web 2.0 productivity tools can be!
