This is an interesting kind of day where I will spend a lot of time sharing my opinions. I just finished an inerview on how I experience the Internet, the role of regulation on the Internet and how I experience the system as a Canadian. I'm presenly researching Internet regulaion so this was interesting to think about... In related news, tonight I will be participating in a focus group to help the SLA.
It feels a bit odd to get paid to offer my opinions, but I find it worthwhile. I like supporting research projects and professional associations.
EDIT: To my disappointment, SLA members (at least ME!) were NOT paid for participating at the 3 hour focus group. I think I was misled in this regard and that's what bothers me. The focus group event involved reacting to videos (mostly or entirely by the leadership of the SLA) and riffing on the meaning of worlds like "librarian" and "information." Still disappointed though.

You must enter politics now. Politicians get paid to express opinions, so now you can too!
In this profession, feel no shame in getting paid to express opinions. You're learning how to hustle. Go for yours...
