It does sound like an ideal fit. And, you are returning to Online, all good news. I’m glad it all woked out before getting too stressful.

What a great match! Sounds like something that you’ll really enjoy and you’ll certainly bring the kind of expertise, energy and experience that will make the Leadership Network a success. Within the Medical Library Association a major priority for this year is to do more experimenting with social networking tools to improve the way the association functions and involves its members. I suspect we’ll be looking to what you’ll be learning from developing this community of practice to help us move forward as well.

Well, PALINET certainly knows I have a blog, and I’ve never attempted to maintain a brick wall between my work life and my professional life. That’s especially true with a position that draws on my writing and editing. So I’d imagine that I’ll be blogging about work to the extent that it makes sense for all concerned. Whether that’s here or elsewhere…too early to say, but I’m generally not inclined to start a new iteration of something when an existing one works well.

Mad props to Palinet for scooping you up! As long as it doesn’t take you too much away from the LSW kaffe klatch, we’re very happy for you.
