TAGGING & FOLKSONOMIES-TECHNORATI

# 14 I found Technorati pretty interesting and I was surprised that this site covered so many different interests like I looked up what shows I could watch if I was in Las Vegas, and then I watched a video of Patrick
Dempsey of "Grey's Anatomy, he's one of my favorites, and then I had
just heard on 105.1 this morning about a guy from New York that had been trapped in a elevator for 40 hours, that would of been a nightmare,
so I found this site real interesting....

TAGGING/FOLKSONOMIES del.icio.us

Item #13 Watched the "Learning 2.0 and del.icio.us video and signed up
for del.icio.us then downloaded the tag to my toolbar, the video said it
was 8 minutes long, but it sure seemed a lot longer than that, and I can
see how delicious makes it easier to keep track of things and your interests, and to keep track of books it would be great...

WIKIS

#16 Watched the video "Wikis in plain english" and was kind of boring,
so then read about them, and I think Wikis are great, and play an important role in Libraries, like how we use them, in our job procedures,
but also many other things like supplies, grocery lists, vacation supplies,
and many other things...

PLAY/IMAGE GENERATORS

#12 I really liked this one, it just kept my attention, because it just wasn't
as boring, like the different generators, Punk Rock jacket generator, and the Beer a matic, of course then there was the Burp generator, which
everyone knows comes after the Beer...plus the Air guitar nation, anyway
I really had fun looking at all the generators, I'm not sure how much it
would play in the library world, but....

RSS & NEWSREADERS-FIND SOME FEEDS

#8 I spent way too much time on this one, I found it real confusing, first
Topix and Syndic8 I didn't find anything that interested me.
And Technorati-was a little more straight forward but kind of boring,
and Liswiki, I joined their blog and that was more interesting, some
of the titles were pretty funny Bitter Librarian, Crimeinthelibrary, and
I read up on RFID'S....I think "LisWiki" is beneficial for library information...

# 7 RSS & NEWSREADER

Well, I signed up for Bloglines, and it was a little overwhelming but I signed up to get information on a couple of my interests, and I guess I might use it, and I can see that it would be a good feature for Libraries,
to get the different feeds of the different library subjects.

#10 SOCIAL NETWORKS-GENERAL INTRODUCTION

I was really impressed with how many libraries take part in the Myspace and Fort Vancouver's page was really nice and informative, I watched the social networking in plain english, and I wasn't real impressed with that,
but know that Social networking plays an important role in libraries...
