So sorry to hear you've been sick, Karol - hope you're better today! This has been a hard winter - hope some weekend sunshine will have you up and about. We missed you and Marguerite last evening. Marguerite logged in to chat which was really fun to see although probably not too fun for her as I was abysmally bad at multi-tasking during the presentation. It was a nice crowd and some great conversation and ideas were flowing. More anon!

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow Karol - and hearing more about Henrietta :)

Our Win Everett talk went well - got 35+ people. Marguerite was a great addition -- answered some questions that neither Ed nor I knew!

Me and my pup Button had just finished our walk. She chooses the bench - hops up - and there is nothing for it but for me to sit with her and be mindful. Button saw the photographer before I did. Thats unusual as she hates to have her photo taken! I feel the same but I didnt see the photographer until I got up to walk us back to the car.
By the way - thanks for stopping the dvd by!

Karol,
Saw you on the front page of the Norwood Bulletin today! Unfortunately, I can't find the photo online. I'll save you the hard copy, though.

The digital storytelling thing is exactly what I have in mind for our library. That said - im trying to get a handle on what I need to know (read train for) and how it will play out in terms of workflow and end product. The end product if done well will be great. My problem is being only part-time and already doing to many full-time things. Here is a website doing much of what I would love to do- - they are doing some great things: http://www.mybrightonandhove.org.uk/index.aspx

Yes - Brown is a great place to be, so is Providence. And I love my job - it's great to get to be in a new place, trying new things. Tell me more about your community conversations - how are they structured? Who participates? I'm very curious about all kinds of digital storytelling possibilities. I just recently returned from a three day workshop put on by the Center for Digital Storytelling, which uses video, audio, photos, music to have people craft short (3 minute) first-person stories. I'm trying to figure out if it's a model that might dovetail with what I do in my oral history classes. I'd love to hear more about what you've been doing through the library in this regard.

Hi Karol:
I see you're interested in oral history. Me too. Have you done interviews? What kinds?
