Isn't it nice to know the government's listening in on all our phone calls? Thoughtcrimes are next. I didn't really pick this archive of American Left materials as a response, at least not consciously...

The missing library of Iona sounds very cool. I volunteer to go investigate.

From the good people at LII.org and ResourceShelf.com, some good library-related links: Worldmapper skews countries to show resource allocation, which is pretty amazing; there's a hidden city of salt under Detroit (urban explorers, take note!); and Kentucky university libraries, including my MLS alma mater, are struggling with the exorbitant prices of some academic journals. Legal materials are the same way these days. It's insane.

If you use Bloglines (and honestly, I can't imagine how I managed without it!), here's some good news: they've figured out a way to embed YouTube video within the feeds!

Tomorrow: links from others, as per usual.
