I love learning new things! <br /><br />I only work ten hours a week. I wasn't able to send as much time as I would have liked on each exercise. It was also hard to concentrate going back and forth between patrons and the exercises. <br /><br />I will continue to use bloglines and Book Thing. I have been asking patrons if they have heard of Technorati, Rollyo or Flickr. YouTube and wikis seem to be alot more popular.<br /><br />I am glad to be done!!!!!barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-86256054439050793802007-09-05T14:29:00.000-07:002007-09-05T14:54:54.093-07:00Thing 22 of 23 ThingsNothing can take the place of sitting in a comfortable chair and reading a good book. I don't think I could get as comfortable with my computer in my lap. Plus I don't think it is as friendly on the eyes. I have had a couple of patrons ask about down loading books from our catolog. So the interest is there.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-73939427562595298572007-09-05T13:40:00.000-07:002007-09-05T13:52:59.705-07:00Thing 21 of 23 ThingsI tried using Yahoo Podcast but I couldn't get it to my bloglines account. Podcast Alley was very easy to use. It went to my bloglines the first time. <br /><br />I enjoyed watching the Harry Potter podcast. Podcasting did a great job promoting the new book.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-27988166675974999832007-08-15T14:19:00.000-07:002007-09-05T14:03:11.960-07:00Thing 20 of 23 ThingsI watched a couple of the videos from YouTube. Some of them were really funny! I think adding the videos to library websites would really appeal to some people. I think they would need to be really short ones though. Otherwise no one may take the time to watch them. Some of the videos were really long and inappropiate. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-R9_va1AK8">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-R9_va1AK8</a>barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-40317049270398136622007-08-15T13:04:00.000-07:002007-08-15T13:15:06.694-07:00Thing 19 of 23 ThingsI explored www.yelp.com. It is a site that finds, reviews and talks about what is good and bad in cities all over the country. I learned quite alot about Annapolis, MD. <br /><br />It looked like there were alot of interesting sites listed in the Web 2.0 awards. I think some of our patrons would be interested in exploring some of these sites.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-44489456566961125502007-08-14T15:33:00.000-07:002007-08-14T15:53:13.095-07:00Thing 18 of 23 ThingsI played around with Zoho Writer.

I use it as a quick reference and a jump start to a topic. I always check with another source. <br /><br />I think wiki is a great way for librarians to share information or as a Reader's Advisory . It certainly is easy to use. The site would need to be monitored frequently to make sure appropriate and reliable information is being added.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-13210951034130234082007-08-09T15:50:00.000-07:002007-08-09T16:17:15.122-07:00Thing 15 of 23 ThingsI read the five perspectives on Library 2.0. I agreed with Dr. Wendy Schultz. I hope that there will always be a place in our communities for libraries with books and librarians. Why can't we have the library "come to us" and be able to go to the library?barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-72965326034246888112007-08-04T07:54:00.000-07:002007-08-09T15:49:23.735-07:00Thing 14 of 23 ThingsI did a search for Learning 2.0 in Technorati. I found 27,610 blog posts. In the tag search, I found both blogs and visual media. In the blog directory, I found 527 messages.<br /><br />I think that people who do alot of blogging are into gadets, technology, and Johanna Cardona.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-50634795033812266252007-08-01T11:47:00.000-07:002007-08-01T12:05:36.481-07:00Thing 13 of 23 ThingsI wasn't able to access the 12 minute Delicious tutorial or Tinyurl.com at my work computer. So it took awhile for me to understand what Delicious is all about. I found a blog that was very helpful. <a href="http://http://www.pbs.org/teachers/learning.now/2006/05/tag_youre_delicious.html ">http://www.pbs.org/teachers/learning.now/2006/05/tag_youre_delicious.html </a> I can see that tagging could be very useful. I searched for rug hooking and found 118 sites that were saved. If I were an internet junky it would be great to take all my favorite websites to any computer that I was using.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699177997946720756.post-4766378458964705642007-07-31T13:19:00.000-07:002007-07-31T14:48:33.718-07:00Thing 12 of 23 Things<a href="http://http://www.rollyo.com/sharpworkspace/rug_hooking/">http://www.rollyo.com/sharpworkspace/rug_hooking/</a><br /><br /><br /><br />I can see that grouping websites together could be useful.

It is very easy to become frustrated and focus on the negative. I hate not finishing things though. When I have completed something then I can focus on what I have learned.<br /><br />The easiest is to teach. I love to share things with others.barbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17214084976256733820noreply@blogger.com0
