]]> I’m now in Baltimore, for the SLA conference. Activites for me have already started with a business meeting for the IT Division. I’ll try to post as much as I can during the conference (hey, Days Inn has free wireless, although weak, in the rooms!).

Don’t forget about the SLA Bloggers Get-Together on Monday. I look forward to discuss blogging with you.
