Item 20

I studied about podcasts. Tried researching sites, found some but had some trouble downloading them. I think the library could use them in teaching and testing. It's a great way to catch a program that you missed.

Item 19

I looked at all the sites: last.fm, Pandora, IMEEM, Internet Archive, Absolute Sound Effects Gutenbergs.orgs Audio Book, and Mango Languages. In the music field I liked Pandora. I seemed to be able to find the music I liked more in Pandora then the others. I think as a library worker I could see me sending patrons to use Gutenbergs Audio Book and the internet archives. I think free audio books will be popular. Personal I think I will try out Mango languages and try to learn some Spanish.

Item 17

Viewed alot of cool sites. Played some fun games. Tested my blog readability. I got a genius rating. Does everyone get the same rating? Posted it on my blog. I went to Yahoo answers. I didn't care for it. I thought most of the questions were to personal and political. Maybe a site that would narrow the questions down to just homework or research questions would be better for the library.

Item 16

Learned about wiki's. I would think they would be good for anyone still in school that had to do a group project. You wouldn't have to get together as often. Everyone could work online and add their input. That way everyone could help with the writing of the paper. Keeping organized. Knowing what everyone has done.

I signed up for goodreads. I even saw my reviews on line.
A great sight to keep track of my reading. I think patrons would like it,
but we should have more internet terminals in the library or maybe have
the site as an electronic resource.

Item 14

I watched technorati tutorial. I went and explored keyword search, tags, and blog directory. When searching I prefer looking under tags. I think bookmarking and tagging will be a good way to keep organized.

Item 13

I watched Social Bookmarking and del.icio.us tutorial. I liked the bookmarks in del.icio.us. There was some good book sites to go to under libraries. It will be great to be able to use bookmarks at the library and then access them with your home computer later.
