Learning 2.0 week 9 continued

Today I also took a look at biblio, imcooked and last.fm. I felt like "biblio" would be a good resource for librarians. This would be a good resource for searching out hard to find texts. "imcooked" was interesting from a personal stand point, but I am really impatient and unless it's something I'm really interested in I don't have the time to watch other people cooking. "last.fm" was my favorite and I am now listening to my newly created musical library, but again I'm not sure how that would apply to the library.

I like it!

Ok. I'm impressed with how simple it was to post my document to my blog. I also think that by creating the document within a word processor, there would be several more options available.

Learning 2.0 - Online Applications and Tools

This week we were introduced to online applications.  I know that I have been in a situation when the computer I created a document on and the computer I wanted to use it on were not compatible.  Having an online application seems very practical.  I'm going to attempt to embed this particular document into my blog.  Then I'll decide if this is all it's cracked up to be.

RSS- so simple!

I am continually feeling inundated by the amount of information, usernames and passwords that I am adding every time I click into learning 2.0. However, I hope that the RSS feeds will work for me. I feel bad when my sister asks if I've seen something new on her blog and I haven't. Now I should get a little nudge that lets me know when she's posted something new. I would like to know if setting up a little "alarm system" is possible or do you have to check your bloglines account?

Good Reads

I hope it's ok, my sister already belonged to Good Reads so I did that site instead. I believe the purpose and tools are very similar to Library Thing.

I can see how this could be very helpful, however, is it much different than bookmarking? or creating a blogroll on your blog?
