Collection Development for My Random Life.

This is pretty neat. My favorites are 12 Angry Men and Primer. Nothing like a time machine movie to screw with your straight lines,  eh?

I wonder if some people are “afraid” to use libraries because when they are surrounded with all the books, they become acutely aware of what they don’t know. This realization, perhaps subconsciously, frightens them and they react either by not asking a question or acting like they know it all already (and thus don’t need a library).

Maybe a search engine on the internet is more palatable to use since you can’t actually see what you don’t know and it that gap is not manifested physically around you like in a library.

So my categories to tags conversion resulted in permanent casualties, in that all my categories were erased. Boo! They were converted to tags though. Categories… tags, pretty much the same difference. It took me awhile to figure out how to get tags completely enabled on the posts. I think I did that. So now, for better or worse, there is a tag cloud on the side of the page to help navigate. The top of this page is an example of a wordle tag cloud (I wish I could make it bigger, but I can’t figure that out without blurring it… yeah I am not the perfect blogger…). You can see it better detail here: http://wordle.net/gallery/L1BRAR1AN
