Recently, I started to realize that our page on the proxy bookmarklet (a bookmark that allows quick access to full text articles via the library's subscription even when the user doesn't use the library portal as a starting point) is extremely popular, despite being burred deep in our current portal design.

My recent blog post on "heretical thoughts" where I played devil's advocate and expressed doubts and how libraries weren't yet successful in getting users to use mobile services.

One of the keys themes of my blog is how to use free tools to get alerts of news of interest.
