Proof that I'm a dork...

...as if you needed any. But I like giving the occasional glimpse into the late-night inner workings of a LIS blog hunter.

So Steven talks about library bloggers who use del.icio.us. He counts four. I immediately think of five and begin to write a comment to that effect.* But I quickly start to wonder whether there are others to be found lurking within the social bookmarking latticework. Working through a series of possible bookmark categories, including libraries, library and librarianship. I note the user names of the people bookmarking in these categories. And by following the user name links, I come across the following, another library blogger using del.icio.us:

Easy Librarian - Musing on Digital Library,Topicmap,Knowledge Organization System" (RSS feed)

So that makes six (seven if you count Karl Siewert, occasional contributor to memepool). This same obsessive behavior leads me to wonder if jlm has or will have a library blog for us to share with you.

*[The five user names are librarystuff, planetneutral, tangognat, simanoff and mamamusings. The individual pages are at http://del.icio.us/user_name]
