Why We Blog – 11/15/2007 – Library Journal
Library Journal – Nov 15, 2007
The best way to ensure productive blogging on staff time is through training. Make sure staffers know how to use the software effectively and encourage them to read widely in the biblioblogosphere so that they can gain both inspiration and a sense of how to strike a professional approachable tone in their posts. SJCPL’s Marianne Kruppa web developer librarian uses a blogging FAQ and step-by-step handout on WordPress blog software in her training sessions with staff. Both the FAQ and the handout are available on the internal staff wiki so interested staff members can self-train if they prefer. Kruppa reports that 20 percent of the library’s staff are trained on the software. “We have a core set of ten who post regularly but other names often pop up” on the library’s three public blogs she reports. Topics and mission statementsThe topics covered in library blogs are often the same as those addressed during in-person or email interactions: new materials library programs and events online resources and library services.
Effective Tagging For Both Usability & SE

com: simply by tagging one of my posts with the keyword “blog optimization” I received a top 10 ranking in Google for the query “blog optimization” — within only a few weeks and without any additional effort. It was a tag page that achieved the high ranking for me and it was created automatically the first time I used the tag. (Note: I use WordPress which now as of version 2. 3 has tagging built in. ) A tag page by its very nature is designed to have its tag as its keyword focus. So simply select a relevant keyword to rank for when coming up with tags for your content and presto! — instant rankings. Tagging is particularly effective at delivering Long Tail search traffic when the site offers “tag conjunction pages.
WebKit 3′s ten new tricks
Ars Technica – Nov 15, 2007
Perhaps most interesting is greater support for rich text editing at many popular sites including Gmail Blogger WordPress Google Docs and more (we also note that Gmail's Google Talk sidebar panel appears in Safari 3 on Leopard). Plenty of speed enhancements are in WebKit 3 as well especially in the JavaScript page loading and caching departments. Last but not least is support for styled forms and menus allowing Safari to display websites the way they were intended. While this is by no means an official review Safari 3 definitely feels snappier (at least in Leopard) despite all the new features. Considering that Safari and WebKit are venturing out onto new platforms like Windows mobile devices Google's new.
