    BYU’s Hunter Law Library has created a neat, new drop-down search toolbar for their students and faculty. Has anyone else created something with multiple database options like this for their library?

    I went to Steven Cohen’s “What’s Hot in RSS & Social Software” presentation at CIL today. Here are two things that I thought were particularly interesting:
    1) page2rss - You can create an RSS feed for a static Web page (though I noticed some - like Ask BILL!, (darn it!) are too large to work).
    2) AideRSS - You can use this to analyze your blog posts - try your blog URL if your feed is too taxing for it (it’s more fun than useful, though, in my humble opinion - maybe it’s more useful if you have a mega blog).

    I’d like to make a small suggestion, if I may. Perhaps, before we post here, we could do a quick search on law.librarians to be sure no one else has already posted on the same topic. We seem to have an awful lot of duplicate posts.

    The Encyclopedia of Life’s “Your Preferences” allows users to limit information to authoritative sources only (although they have a little typo).  Wouldn’t it be great if everything had that option!

    Hmmm. It doesn’t seem like anyone on law.librarians is in my time zone. I realize the chances are slim that I’ll be posting when the Londoners are posting, but I thought the Canadians and I might cross paths. So, where is everybody? I’m in Washington, DC. Where are you?
