SOME MORE EXEMPLARY BLOGS (Feb 04 2004 20:59 GMT) - I've just adding another dozen items to my already bloated blogroll. I'm actually quite discriminating in what I add, rejecting most of the requests I get to 'reciprocally' blogroll, and never adding a blog until I've seen at least two remarkable posts on two different days. There's just a lot of great writing out there! Here are a few of the blogs I've added this time: Practical Metaphors - Ryan Fugger finds amazing things on the Internet that no one else seems to find. |

New Seattle central library is not by the book (Feb 04 2004 20:59 GMT) - The Seattle Post Intelligencer Is Covering the spiffy new central library in Seattle. It is an education for anyone who thinks of libraries as cozy, softly lit structures with oak bookshelves, a few desks and a card catalog in the center of it all. This is as far from Carnegie as you can get. "I don't think people quite understand what this is. It is really quite spectacular," Sam Miller, principal with LMN Architects, told reporters and photographers who got a tour of the building yesterday. |
