Hi Everyone

Glad you were happy with meeting our participants. Nice to hear NetVibes dark side is not totally winning.

Cammy – I was so glad that I realised from commenting on your blog that I was linking to the wrong blog. Have now discovered that I have to include my link to my blog when signing my comment, if they do not allow other user.

Sue — I’m so sorry that it was my blog that made you feel like an idiot! Definitely not my intention

I’m still hooked on my iGoogle home page. Don’t see too much of a difference between Netvibes and iGoogle — aside from the sharing feature and the fact that you can change colors on individual items.

Good morning or good evening to you wherever you are. Yes, back after the flu and with some catchups to do, there’s been some mulling time which is nice.

Sue you’ve done a terrific job putting this little neighbourhood of chocolate-challenged bloggers together. Thank you!

Like Christine, I was intrigued by Alex’s great intro to Netvibes, and of course had to dive in myself and have a go. Not sure yet whether Netvibes will lure me away from iGoogle, but I like what I see so far.

Sad to say, there is a big down side to virtual worlds – you can present at a symposium using a virtual world, so you don’t get to fly to sunny Qld. I’ll actually be in my ‘jamas and on the telephone .

I’ve made a couple of audio/slide combinations about libraries in SL and what Murdoch Uni Library is doing with it. My avatar will be there while they stream into SL…and I’ll use my voice via the phone line beamed in. And I (or Emerald – I’m not quite sure which one of it is doing it…) will be part of a panel discussion also.

But..I do get to go to Qld later in the year to give a workshop to academic librarians about SL, and then go to the State Library of Qld Unconf the next day – so I can’t be too sad.

Yes, I am from the USA on the West Coast in Oregon.

I have my new Netvibes, but I haven’t quite let go of my Google Reader. It is easier for going through long lists of blogs. So you can count me on both sides
