Sorry if the posts are a bit spotty, but between being out of the office for three days and getting all my final projects for school done (due next week), I'm a bit behind! I'll catch up after the STC conference, I promise!

Two of the three days I was out were spent as an exhibitor at the spring FedWeb conference. Booth duty was slow, so fortunately there were some good sessions to attend, including one by local bud Thom Haller--who is one entertaining and informative speaker! I also caught Jared Spool's plenary on Wednesday. I know some hard-core usability folk have some issues with Jared, but he makes one hell of an entertaining speaker and was a great choice for an audience like the one at FedWeb. Alas, I missed Ginny Redish's, but fortunately I'll be able to catch her at STC in Dallas.

In today's blog catch-up activity, I added my two cents after Jess in the what's in a name thread (an IDblog record).

I also finally responded to an old daBurgh bud, Ken Mohnkern, in the STC conference thread. If you aren't a link clicker, do check out Ken's weblog. Interesting stuff!

I was amused by Ken's right-nav link for the Political Compass (now missing, alas!) that showed that our politics were very compatible. According to the results of their test, I'm slightly more to the left and more Libertarian than Ghandi. Hey, things could be worse :).

Interesting that Hitler and Thatcher are as close as they are! I'm also in the same quadrant as Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama. Now there's good company :).
