Squarespace

There’s a new hosted blog solution in town, and it’s creating quite a bit of buzz. It’s called Squarespace, and while they don’t have a free option (they have a free trial, but for any ongoing blog there is a cost), they do have quite a following online. Kevin Rose has his blog hosted there, and Leo Laporte is in the process of moving over to them.

It looks like a really nice option for complex looking sites that are actually easy to build using their software. I’m keeping an eye on this one.

Online Information

I’ve been invited to speak at Online Information in London, UK, on the topic of…..drumroll….Library Blogging! I’ve titled my talk “Beyond Blogging: the future of the format” and my goal will be to talk about where blogging is going in general over the next couple of years.

I’ll post the talk up here as soon as I get it done! Still working feverishly.
