MOLDI

2008-12-01T11:03:00.000-08:00

I tried to get onto MOLDI twice over the last couple of days and it would not download the Overdrive Media Console correctly. I also had a hard time getting onto the MOLDI website a few times too. I think this could be a problem for customers at times and they may get frustrated.

Learn & Play Experience

2008-11-28T18:19:00.001-08:00

Well this is the end of Learn and Play for me. I have enjoyed learning about different tools on the web. I am definitely not a Librarian 2.0 yet, but I am a work in progress. I do appreciate this practice that we were allowed and encouraged to do during work time.

Stumble Around

2008-11-28T12:37:00.000-08:00

I just discovered Stumble Around and I love it. I think it is one of the best tools that I have found through this Learn and Play. I will definitly use Stumble Around.

How fun it is to do the Hair Mixer and share songs from Last.fm. I liked looking at all of the different celebrities hair styles; it gives me ideas for my own hair.

Google Docs

2008-11-25T15:20:00.000-08:00

I created a couple of Google Docs. This is probably one of the most beneficial applications that I have learned about so far. I think I will be using this often.

PBwiki

2008-11-20T15:05:00.000-08:00

So I created a wiki page but I don't really know what I did or how I did it. I know that it is an actual webpage but how can people get to it. I am still confused about all of this Library 2.0 stuff.

Wiki

2008-11-20T15:03:00.001-08:00

The wiki seems like a very good idea for librarians and other people everywhere. Of course, I just wonder how we can know how accurate the information is on these wikis. If everyone is just adding random updates, where is the factual information that librarians need to share with the public.

Library 2.0

2008-11-19T09:18:00.000-08:00

This article and the perspectives were overwhelming. There is a lot I have to learn to be a Librarian 2.0.

Tagging in Delicious

2008-11-19T08:51:00.000-08:00

I can see how tagging in Delicious would be helpful for research. I already was using some of the reader's advisory tags that other people had posted.

Twitter

2008-11-05T12:25:00.000-08:00

I figured out how to tweet and found a lot of people I could follow. I don't know how much I will use this, but it seems fun and east. My username for twitter is amycatlady.

Library Thing

2008-11-05T11:16:00.001-08:00

I actually created a catalog of books a while ago for Library Thing but I forgot my password. So this is very good to revisit it.

I will definitly have to play around with this more.

Image Generators

2008-11-05T06:26:00.000-08:00

These were fun to play around with! Here is my image!

Library Blogs

2008-11-04T13:07:00.000-08:00

I found a couple library blogs. One was through Bloglines; this one was used to ask questions of other library workers - called the library shelver. The other one I went to was http://www.theshiftedlibrarian.com/. This one had people blogging about changes in their libraries. I found both of the blogs very insightful.

RSS

2008-10-28T14:37:00.000-07:00

RSS feeds seems complicated to me. I did subscibe to different blogs that I will go back to to check on things.

Technology

2008-10-22T09:26:00.001-07:00

It is fun but sometimes difficult to explore different interfaces on the web. I feel inadequate at times.

Flickr

2008-10-22T09:22:00.001-07:00

Okay I am so very confused as to how to explore flickr. Can somebody help me?

Flickr

2008-10-22T08:50:00.001-07:00

Flickr looks pretty interesting. I have put any pictures on there yet, but I will when I have time.

Home

2008-09-23T14:46:00.000-07:00

Well I finished the first 3 of the things (I know I am slow at doing this). Going home now!
