- “Walt Crawford’s January Cites & Insights is available for reading. The piece entitled “A Time of Limits?” was quite intriguing, examining the presumption that “everyone” has all of these wonderful technology services (cell phones, Netflix, etc.) and the actual reality of the digital divide and people who can’t actually afford to buy these things end up buying them anyway to “keep up.”" (LibrarianInBlack)
- Sarah Houghton-Jan’s Top Tech Trends for 2008, ALA Midwinter (especially her comments on the digital divide and our reaction to it - past and present)
- Top 10 obscure Google tips
- There’s a great article in the January C&RL News about using fantasy football to teach information literacy. “Librarians Sport of Choice“
