Looks like I *will* be blogging in the month of May, but only from Chicago.

To my surprise, I was approved as an “official conference blogger” for MLA 2008.

All MLA 2008 conference bloggers:

Stewart Brower - Professional Notes

A’Lyn Ettien - The Creature from the Health Informatics Class

Marie Kennedy - Organization Monkey

Maureen ‘Molly’ Knapp - LSUHC New Orleans Health Sciences Center

Michelle Kraft - The Krafty Librarian

Leigh Mihlrad - Leigh’s Little Corner of the Web

Emily Molanphy (Emily has 2 blogs!) - Emily’s Journal - and - Eponymous Blog about Libraries

Bryan Nugent - The Universe of Medical Librarianship

David Rothman - davidrothman.net

Eric Schnell - The Medium is the Message

For reasons I haven’t yet been able to determine, they decided to aggregate all posts about MLA 2008 from each of these blogs on a page at a WetPaint wiki …but don’t provide an aggregated feed. So here’s a feed I slapped together in Yahoo! Pipes.

Here’s that same feed, previewed with FeedSweep:

I’ll put together a feed that pulls from more than official sources (sort of like the one I set up for CIL2008) next week and will elaborate on the MLA2008 GroupTweet I set up that’ll allow MLA attendees who use Twitter to conveniently send a tweet to all other MLA 2008 Twitter users from a laptop, cell phone, or other mobile device.

I’m bringing with me to Chicago these newfangled devices for the digital recording of sound and images (both still and moving)- so expect at least a little of that sort of stuff to appear here between 5/17 and 5/21.
