07:48 chuck hey anyone home?
07:48 chuck do you have any sort of ready-made scripts for radio or TV for promoting an Undergrad Commons in the Library?
07:49 chuck I'm at Florida State
07:52 chuck I'll hang out in case someone shows up :)
17:16 jsstover chuck?
17:16 jsstover sorry i missed ya!
17:18 jsstover i don't know about the scripts you mentioned, but i'm not sure that ready-made is the way to go...i'd like to hear more about what you'd like to do.
17:28 jsstover i have a question:
17:29 jsstover does anyone know of libraries using text messaging for reference or other services?
17:32 jsstover i only know of one place, Sims Memorial Library, that has done this:
http://www2.selu.edu/Library/ServicesDept/referenc…
17:38 jsstover so maybe i just answered my own question but i'm curious as to how these efforts are working out and what barriers are out there in adopting sms.
17:58 Chuck@FSU hi

17:59 Chuck@FSU well -- i was just looking here and i dont see the reply
17:59 jsstover oh, well, it wasn't much of one. i just mentioned that...
18:00 jsstover i haven't heard of any scripts
18:00 Chuck@FSU it must be beyond as far as i can scroll uop
18:00 Chuck@FSU kk thats cool
18:00 jsstover but i wasn't sure if pre-made was the route you wanted to go - did you just want to get an idea?
18:00 Chuck@FSU yea i wanted to find a ready- made script -- the tweak it
18:00 Chuck@FSU **then
18:01 Chuck@FSU no biggy -- i was just being lazy
18:01 Chuck@FSU I can some up with some -- i think its pretty straightg forward
18:01 jsstover ha! no, there's no reason to reinvent the wheel
18:01 Chuck@FSU heheh
18:01 Chuck@FSU yea
18:01 jsstover yeah, i was going to say, just listen to radio/tv ads you like
18:01 Chuck@FSU i love this embeeded thing
18:02 jsstover cool! well, the scrolling thing is a problem, i think. i'm using meebo and i can scroll fine.
18:02 Chuck@FSU we are upgradig our web pages at fsu -- and i want one of these in my page
18:02 jsstover i also just found that this keeps transcripts - nice!
18:02 Chuck@FSU that is nice -- exports to notepad ot soemthing?
