ownhandsThanks to PDX Time Bank (see Hourworld.org for more info), I’ve been fortunate to meet two amazing collaborators on the Own Hands Story Search tool: Rob Bednark and Matt McNamara. Rob has jumpstarted serious work on this project, and Matt put together an impressive prototype, integrated with a wealth of information from OpenLibrary, something I would never have thought of.
A quick plug: If you use the research-organization tool, Zotero, you may also be interested in Matt’s Zotero extension for Firefox, Webtero, optimized for web-based research.
Also through the time bank, I’m doing beta reading of Sara Bednark’s (Rob’s wife) novel, Delia, a very well-written tale of isolation and connection in the pandemic. I look forward to seeing this work published and will keep you posted on this newsletter.
