One of the most prolific and interesting voices on the electronic discussion lists is James Weinheimer (I'm sure you know that already). So, I was glad to find that James is using a blog as a brain dump for his AUTOCAT and NGC4LIB listserv posts.
From the first post of his First thus blog:
I have posted so many messages to listservs that I thought I might try a blog. We'll see how long it lasts. So, I shall occasionally forward my listserv messages to this blog and slightly rework them when appropriate.
I am very interested in metadata and the future of the library profession (that is, if there is to be one) and how librarians--especially catalogers--can try to control their own futures.
A worth cause and a worth blog!
Thanks so much for this tip-off! I've always loved James' contributions to AUTOCAT et. al. but find it so hard to keep up with listservs these days. Yay!

Me too. I enjoy reading the listservs, but volume is daunting.
