			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Internet Librarian 2008 is over and it was another action-packed convergence of libraryland&#8217;s netizens. I find I don&#8217;t learn quite as much as I used to at these conferences, but being on stage a bunch of times (four, to be exact) will eat into the learning energies. And I do a better job of keeping myself informed and in tune with what&#8217;s going on in library land, so there are fewer surprises to be gleaned from others in this kind of structured info delivery environment.</p>
<p>That said, lots of interesting people and interactions. I&#8217;m saving most of my reflections on the conference for tomorrow night&#8217;s recording of <a href="http://uncontrolledvocabulary.com">Uncontrolled Vocabulary</a>, which will focus largely on a wrapup of IL2008.</p>
<p>As for my appearances, they all went well enough. Here are the slides from my brief presentation on personal branding and online reputation management.</p>

<p>I was also honored with an invitation to take part in <a href="http://www.infotodayblog.com/2008/10/22/shanachietour-returns-to-monterey-1-year-later/">the Shanachies&#8217; Tuesday evening session</a>. Have to admit that you feel a bit of the rock star aura when you&#8217;re talking to &#8220;the Dutch boys.&#8221; It was a great privilege to be interviewed by Erik, Jaap and Geert and get to talk a bit about Uncontrolled Vocabulary to a new audience.</p>
<p>I also had the privilege of moderating this year&#8217;s Pecha Kucha (which a reliable source tells me is pronounced peh-cha-koo-cha with even emphasis on &#8211; and consistent cadence across &#8211; all syllables), featuring presentations by an all-star cast comprised of Rebecca Jones, Stephen Abram, David Lee King and Nancy Dowd. Here&#8217;s the video from that session:</p>

<p>Whether you were at the conference or not, feel free to drop by <a href="http://uncontrolledvocabulary.com">the show</a> Wednesday night at 10 PM Eastern and join the conversation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Howdy folks. Haven&#8217;t had much to say lately, but wanted to let you all know that I&#8217;m heading to Monterey early Sunday morning to take part inÂ <a href="http://infotoday.com/il2008">Internet Librarian 2008</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be on stage three times over the course of the conference&#8217;s three days. Monday, I&#8217;ll be talking about online identity, personal branding and reputation management as the first half of a session entitled &#8220;<a href="http://infotoday.com/il2008/day.asp?day=Monday#TrackB">Making a Difference with Digital Media</a>.&#8221; Later in the day, as part of the same track, I&#8217;ll be sitting on a panel discussing issues in public libraries. Not exactly sure what that&#8217;s going to be about, so I&#8217;ll be wingin&#8217; it.</p>
<p>Tuesday, I get to be an plain ol&#8217; attendee.</p>
<p>Wednesday, I&#8217;m moderating <a href="http://infotoday.com/il2008/day.asp?day=Wednesday#TrackD">the Pecha Kucha session</a>, which will focus on the theme of planning. For those of you who saw <a href="http://openstacks.net/os/?s=pecha+kucha">my Pecha Kucha presentation at Computers in Libraries</a> and were hoping for a repeat performance, please note that I am not presenting, just moderating.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re planning on being there and would like to say hello in person, please <a href="http://openstacks.net/os/contact-me/">drop me a line</a>.</p>
