CCQ notes

Some news items worth following up on for my next column, e.g.: ALA | Margaret Mann Citation honors Robert Wolven; Library Thing profiled in NYT business section, 3/4/07. Andrew Pace on significance of LibraryThing (" am very, very impressed by the work of Tim Spalding at LibraryThing. Libraries should be licensing his database's social tags. LibraryThing's interface design is also very, very good. I'm sure Amazon.com has taken notice") and future of bibliographic control; "History Digitized and Abridged" in 3/10/07 NYT magazine; Automated Web searching at MetaWeb Technologies with Daniel Hillis. Intro to mashups for Health Librarians by Allen Cho.
