Eric Arseneau's Weblog

Just ran into an interesting use of my blog just now. I have just started using the online system for our local library to reserve and renew books. I took out my wallet, got my library card out, logged in and renewed some books. I had a couple of books that I could not renew and so had to return them. So I got in my car and drove to the library.
Once at the library, I realized that I had left my wallet on my desk :( Picture ID was required in order for me to make some changes to my online account, for some reason the library system will not let me set my notification e-mail online.
With no ID, the librarian was unable to allow me to make changes to my account. Then I had a eureka moment. Asked the librarian if she had internet access, which she did. So I asked her to go to http://blogs.sun.com/eric, where she would find my blog containing my full name and picture. Presto, I had an online ID !!!
So BLOG!!! You never know when it will come in handy :)
