There's nothing wrong with reading a book you love over and over. When you do, the words get inside you, become a part of you, in a way that words in a book you've read only once can't. - Gail Carson Levine

Do you have a WordPress Blog?

Did you know you can connect it to the Fediverse so that people on Mastodon can follow you and comment on your posts?

It works through the WordPress ActivityPub plugin:

I appreciate this WordPress philosophy overview. More products should be built with these principles in mind:

Works with little configuration and setup
Designed for the majority
Makes decisions, not options
Clean, lean and mean
Strives for simplicity

#Librarians friends of the Fediverse, I am looking for interesting newsletters or RSS feeds about libraries I could follow. Could you help me?

Mostly around:

#library and #librarianship in general, #archives are an interest too, physical and digital sides both
All things #public #library
#cataloguing in all its form
#games library, in particular #boardgame library

Languages:
Mainly EN and FR, but feel free to point to stuff in other languages, I will check it out, thanks to the miracle of today’s internet translators.

Principalement EN et FR, mais je jetterai un œil à des choses en d’autres langues aussi grâce aux miracles des traducteurs en ligne d’aujourd’hui.

இணையம் இருப்பவர்கள்தான் தடுப்பூசிக்கு பதிவு செய்ய வேண்டும் என ஒரு நாதாரி கூறுகிறான் என்றால் அவன் எந்த உலகத்தில் வாழ்கிறான் என்று நினைத்துப் பாருங்கள்.

டிஜிட்டல் இந்தியா என்பது ஒரு மாயை. பணமதிப்பிழப்பை ஞாயப்படுத்த உருவாக்கப்பட்ட பொய்.

இன்னும் அந்தப் பொய் எத்தனை பேரைக் கொல்லும்?

Hot tip for increasing your joint mobility in a short time: ditch the chair. Sit on the floor instead. This simple hack will drastically increase the range of motion in your ankles, knees, and hips. No amount of ergonomic chair will beat squatting down and getting up many times a day.
