One Blog

Set up the One blog feed and a MERLIN feed.

RSS feeds

Set up RSS feed with Lorelle on wordpress and Merlin.

Lifelong learners

Discovered a few pointers from lifelong learners. I think keeping an open mind during this learning libraries has been very helpful to me.

My thoughts...

This is my brain after learning libraries...

It was a great experience participating in the Learning Libraries program. There were many fun and challenging excercises. I'd have to say of everything I enjoyed Utube and Flickr the most. This program has helped to broaden my knowledge of the internet and web 2.0 more than expected. I am still fuzzy on some topics. However, with practice I could see some of them becoming easier. I would enjoy participating in another discovery program in the future.

Netlibrary

Introduction to Netlibrary was interesting and helpful. Would be a great tool for those who enjoy talking books. I am more of a reader than a listener. I can see this being very helpful for those who cannot get out to their local library branch.

Forgotten: Play Week


Forgot to do my play week. Played on Flickr looking for a library/pug picture. This is my Monday morning feeling pic.

Podcasts

Explored some comedy podcasts on yahoo podcasts. It was fun to hear them. Would be great for the library to have this available for patrons to listen to talking books or even share their book or DVD reviews with other patrons.

Youtube

Played around on Youtube today. Mostly searched pug videos. It was fun. I can see the library having this so the patron could preview DVDs before borrowing them.

Web 2.0 Award list


Searched on Realtravel for hotel reservations in Atlantic City. It was very helpful and compared prices found on many sites. Would use for future travel plans.

Zoho writer

Read about online productivity tools. Seems like a good idea for users who don't want to mess with software.
