Headtale Blog Birthday Review

Continuing my birthday week festivities, thought it might be nice to review my posts on July 18 since this blog started… 2012 – Average Canadian Male Life Expectancy = 78 (Happy 39th Birthday To Me!) 2011 – A  Montage Video of Various “Paranoid Android” Covers on YouTube – obviously my birthday wasn’t front and centre that […]

“One Prominent NDP Blogger Recently Wrote…”

So I was flitting around YouTube this weekend and came across this video of a member statement made by Carrot River MLA, Fred Bradshaw in the Saskatchewan Legislature and which was uploaded a couple months ago on April 17, 2013. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Psj4cFq7kqQ Although they don’t specify who the “prominent NDP blogger” in question is (and out […]

Refer Madness

Over the years, I’ve occasionally posted about some of the  search terms that were bringing people to my blog.  I did this once a few months after starting my blog in 2006 and again during the 2009 NDP Leadership Race and probably a few other times as well. I thought it might be interesting to re-visit the […]

Flickr Redesign Now Gives You ONE TERABYTE of Space (and Some Other Thoughts on Cloud-Computing)

Flickr, a photography storage & sharing site which was one of the original Web 2.0 services (the missing vowel gives it away!), has lived in a state of benign neglect for the past few years after being acquired by Yahoo!  in 2005.

As I have on this blog every year since 2007, I’m planning a week-long series of posts relating to the unofficial Haunakah (er, or week-long holiday of your choice) for librarians everywhere – Freedom to Read Week! Tune in for the rest of the week for seven crazy nights of fun! To start it off, let’s […]

First Lines from Each Month of My 2012 Blog Posts

My Annual Christmas Blasphemy Tradition

Because what’s Christmas without tradition? (I evidently like tradition!) Merry Christmas 2012!

This is just to say

I have written this blog that began in the oughties and which has gone on now for 2500 near-daily posts Forgive me the posts were delicious so sweet and so cold

Meili Monday – A Political Disclaimer #skndpldr

I usually do a “Music Monday” post at the start of the week. But since the SK NDP Leadership has just started, I thought it might be fun (and alliterative!) to give over a few of my Mondays in the coming weeks and months to some thoughts on the race, Ryan Meili’s campaign and other […]

Botox Blog Update

I made a reference to my blog undergoing botox treatments yesterday which was more than a bit intentional as I have indeed restored some youthful vigour to this blog. After starting my first blog on the Blogware platform at blog.jason.hammond.net back in 2006 when I was in library school, I ended up with two blogs after […]
