Mashups
I liked HubMed: there were fewer results of higher relevance (higher precision and lower recall.) I looked at several mashups and finally decided to write about Popurls which combines fifteen consensus filters into one page view. By displaying the top hits on each of the sites it seems to take the pulse of the Web, in its continuous Zeitgeist.
Rollio, Privacy, and Librarians
Privacy has always been of major interest to librarians, and the debate has been stirred by the present politics, the new technology that makes it much easier to have one's privacy invaded, and the differences of opinion about privacy among generations. Even in this search, which was limited to librarian blogs there were 9,640 results, which shows how popular this topic is among librarians.
