After a little over two years processing, referencing, and cataloging, and hacking at AIP, I’m skipping up to the City That Never Sleeps to join Jay Datema, Josh Greenberg, and company in the NYPL Labs. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t thrilled about this opportunity, and I’m ready to see where my new [...]
It’s been some time since I’ve had a substantive post, and I don’t really intend to write one now. I figured I should mention, however, that I’ve been featured lately in print and in the blogosphere.

The Archival Solidarity Session was really great and generated a [...]
I’ve finally gotten around to doing some serious work on the site. I’ve completed the first post for Dalliance, my MP3 blog, and it’s about one of my favorite songwriters ever, Dr. Franklin Bruno. I’ve also figured out some of the odd intricacies of Drupal and am finally getting this site to have a look [...]
