Librarian by Day

If you follow me on Twitter you know I share and retweet a lot of links.  I don’t know how you treat Twitter but if I’m not paying attention when something is shared I miss it. So I’ve been thinking I need a way to share those links ones on the blog.  I thought I’d try to blog a best of the best of Twitter blog post each Friday.

I really don’t want to do an automatic recap of my Twitter posts each week and force you to wade through all of my conversations, so I’ll be hand selecting the 10 best links each week.  I hope this is useful. Please feel free to let me know of any links you think deserve to be in the list!
