My Journey

This assignment has opened some new doors for me. I never really paid attention to the RSS feed icon on websites, now I know what they're for :O)! I also found some fantastic blogs to follow, something I've never done before. Until this class, I used the computer for word processing and googling - now I feel like I've learned about some really amazing and useful technologies. Thinking about how the "things" could be used in the library setting was especially helpful. It gave me a real reason for exploring each item. I have really enjoyed this assignment! I plan to complete all 23 "things" and to explore others a little more in depth. This is a journey that is just beginning:O)!

Flickr - Revisited!

I found this great link about How To Make Flickr Work For Your Library! I would never have thought of all those possibilities on my own. I love when people share their knowledge :O) - enjoy!

ZohoWriter Document

Here's the link to the very simple poster that I created on zoho.com using the Zoho Writer program, an online productivity tool.

Delicious Bookmarking is Dee-lish!

I was very intrigued by delicious.com bookmarking. What an amazing idea - the ability to access your favorite internet sites, whether they're blogs, wiki's or association sites from ANY computer or device with internet access. Talk about convenience! It's an easy way for a library or librarian to add important link to their site. The ability to share your bookmarks is also a valuable tool for libraries and librarians. A patron or other librarian would have an instant set of valuable sites to access. I found a great blog that created a list of practical uses for delicious bookmarks in the library setting located at a blog called melange. I've added a few items to my bookmarks,but there are many others that I'd like to add. It's another one of those ideas where you think - "why didn't I think of that?".
