Google Docs Ditty

I grabbed a book
and took a look
and what did I behold?
A brownish spot
that smelled a lot,
and no, it wasn't mold.

I like to call the above ditty "The Joys of Delivery." I composed it, and this whole post, on Google Docs, which I think is an excellent invention. We should have Google Docs bookmarked on all of the computers. That way when patrons forget their jumpdrive and we no longer have floppys, they can still save their work, and better yet access it from home (or if they don't have internet access at home just save it and come back later with a jumpdrive). Actually, there are other programs we've been learning about that would also be great to have bookmarked on the PALs, like Goodreads and Librarything. What a great reader's advisory tool! Much more user-friendly than Novelist, I think.
