A happy tenth birthday to Ariadne. When the first issues appeared, I was employed at the North Thames Regional Library & Information Unit. Even now when I see the masthead (in those days it appeared both in print and online) I am taken back to my office in a basement in Millman Street, then still the headquarters of the British Postgraduate Medical Federation.
It is worth reading, especially for John Kirriemuir's reflections on Bright Young Things and cuckoos and monkeys. It was John who memorably introduced an audience of animal health information specialists to the pleasures of squirrel hazing. I think he was illustrating a point about search engines.
