library thing

Summary

1. What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learningjourney?
• Favorite exercises:

2. How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?
• I will probably do a little more directed searching for things I am interested in without having to weed through the garbage
3. Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
• Learning how to look at podcast and attempting to learn how to link to my blog

5. If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again chose to participate?
• I would have like to have been given the choice rather than forced, would have been more open to doing it
6. How would you describe your learning experience in a few words or a few sentences, so we can share our successes and promote this program?
• Well, I would just offer as class with way more ceu credits.

overdrive

tried to get overdrive book- got the book downloaded player the two couldn't see each other. may try again when kinks are worked out.

pod cast

The Pod Cast are pretty good. I was thinking of getting an ipod for personal use earlier this year, maybe I'll get one now. Didn't like podcast.net, couldn't locate anything I wanted. Podcastalley.com is a bit better. Located article on fish ponds, very entertaining and a bit informational. Nice mix! Posted comment on podcast, not sure how to see it yet

you tube

Plenty of options, chose these two because I believe if everyone in this country as well as around the world had access to great education, this world would be a better place. I know that this is the "flower child" in me, but you know the saying... "thy people( all people) perish for the lack of knowledge"

my pick

I chose Technorati today as the site/tool . I was able to get information about things that mattered to me. The only problem I have is that every site or thing requires your name or email. I guess being a victim of check/id theft has left me a bit leery on giving out info. But i'll still use the tool

zoho

I like this feature. It gives you lots of options when you want to move information created to different places- so ,you can pull it up however and wherever you need to access it.

hope

Today, as I sink deeper into the underworld of the worldwide web, there seems to be an ember of hope....

Wiki

Made my post on wiki "Gettin it Done" Just wondering why charles doesn't have a blog page index?
Wiki's are okay, just have to take with a grain of salt

2.0 in libraries

The first article I skimmed over seemed to express the use of 2.0 as a tool to manage all the new web tools. I believe at some point we will have to have a way of effectively managing the tools we use, sort of a "web toolbox". Use 2.0 until something better shows up.

The second article would rather use 2.0 as part human librarian, part buyer and part inventory clerk. I'm not sure how I feel about throwing most of the work librarians do to the web director/acquisitions/manager of people.

I am willing to incorporate 2.0 but not as a replacement to human capital.

Technorati is not too bad. I like the idea of entering search terms and getting relevant information. I t gives you details specific details about what you are searching for, not to clear on tagging. Not sure if I want to be tracked

Un Del.icio.us

Well,
Back from foot surgery, getting back into 2.0. Didn't like Del., it was like the dos version before windows. I like stuff visually clean, I guess I could follow it if my life depended on it. Not really into social networking or tagging.

sunset in paradise
