This morning on Public Radio's Performance Today, I heard about Mozart going back and forth with [another composer] with colorful sketches, markings, and quips within his original manuscripts like a couple 4th graders would.  I was inspired and intrigued to find out more and see for myself.

Turns out you can peruse a digital archive of Mozart's and LOADS of other artists' original manuscripts and artwork on-line!  By default, you are led to a crafty Shockwave viewer that lets you zoom, pan, and flip pages, but there is also an accessible version that might be easier to digest (and faster to dive into!).

We had a nice media event at the County Courthouse to show off some of our recent achievements in IT. The bulk of the presentation was for the public wireless access blanketing the courthouse and online legal library access offerings, but the wiz-bang that shone for the media was my docket scroller*. Cool stuff-- incidentally, my big mug takes up half the screen in this KBTX video clip:
