Do any of my favorite watat.com readers have suggestions of other blogs my coworkers might not be able to live without??? If you post them in the comments, then I can teach my coworkers about comments, too. Plus you'll be famous.

Don't forget to mention (from David Weinberger's book, Small Pieces Loosely Joined): "on the Web, everyone will be famous to fifteen people."

Leaping Lizards is one of my favorite college student blogs; but it needs to be updated more often!

Okay, here's one more: Amusing Things that Patrons Do and Say in the Library Environment. This is written by a folks in public and academic libraries, and anyone who works in any library will recognize these patrons. (And laugh!)

I'm so focused on WATAT, I was unaware there were other blogs. All hail the queen.

Please do not forget Tiny Little Librarian who tells some of the most harrowing librarian tales on record today. Ah, Methadone Man, will you ever learn?

Hmmm. May I suggest the lightly updated GN for Librarians. It really truly is a masterpiece! :) Well not really, but I have gotten free books because of it.

Oh and what about Patty's director blog from Ogden? Her blog shows directly how useful blogs can be for libraries.
I also have blogs that I created for the teens and kids in my library, but I don't want to toot my own horn... although I do love the word toot. Toot toot toot. That may explain why I buy all the books about farts. :)

I'm too ashamed to admit to looking at www.cuteoverload.com, but, oddly have no qualms at all in reccomending www.yarnharlot.com even to non-knitters. Knitting's the putative subject, but the woman is simply one fine and funny writer.
