I am now in possession of a blog. Why does this development not fill me with more excitement and anticipation? Can it be that I can't think of anything to say? Perish the thought! I've been keeping diaries/journals/epistolary relationships since I was seven years old.
I AM, however, afflicted with stage fright of a sort. My antique sensibilities were developed over half a century ago, back at a time when public embarrassment and humiliation (as opposed to the dubious benefits of modern celebrity) were still a very real possibility. Obsolescent Twentieth Century model that I am, I can't seem to free myself from the limitations of an overactive sense of privacy.
Oh well, now that I'm breathing the free, anonymous blogger air, perhaps all this will change.

Congratulations on creating your blog! Now you have truly joined the information age...
I feel kind of dubious about this 23 things project as well. I think it's a good idea for people to try out the technology, and if nothing else comes of it, that's probably a good thing. However I'm not sure that most of these things are going to be that valuable to us in our work. I don't have a lot of time to blog; I'm usually too busy working at the the reference desk. Plus, there's nothing that makes you feel old and crotchety faster than looking at some stupid MySpace page with a bunch of drunken teens partying.
I'll try to drop by with encouraging comments for you. Keep blogging!
