This blog rarely hosts up-to-the-minute reportage, but here it is: Internet Librarian is a bust!

Most everyone we see loves LibraryThing for Libraries and our new reviews feature (announced today)—but nobody’s here! There are only two rows for exhibitors, and attendees aren’t walking them. According to an unnamed source—unnamed because I don’t know his name—attendance is way down this year.

So, if you’re here, come by! We’d love to show you the remarkable new system we’ve built. And we’ve got laptop stickers, t-shirts and cuecats to give out. And we’ve got nothing to do tonight either. Last night Sonya and I had a business meeting at a Denny’s.

Don’t make us do that again!
Update: Things looked up for about 30 minutes.
