Week 5 PLAY WEEK !

Play week what fun! Made this picture at http://bihugelabs.com/flickr/warholizer.php.

Made a rollyo search tool to search the kids craft web sites that I usually go to to search for craft ideas for story time sessions. very useful.

Had fun with Library Thing. Had trouble adding a link to the side of the page so have entered my link here. http://www.librarything.com/catalog/annsim4

Has taken me three weeks to get through Play week!!! But has been fun. :)

Week 4 RSS & Newsreaders

Found this weeks training very interesting but need lots more time to play with this.
Have set up a bloglines account and put in a few rss feeds.

Think I will probably do this with my own personal web page so can access info from my most used web pages.

Think it could be useful in the library setting by adding RSS feeds to web page for easy access to useful sites.

With the Newsreaders mentioned in this lesson was disappointed to find that they were of mostly American content. Found topix.net had more Australian content and much more relevant to me. Technorati was difficult to access (from home) as my internet connection is too slow. "The joys of living in a smallish town."

Need much more time to explore this fully but intend to do that soon.

Week 3 Photos& Images

Have finally had a chance to look at all Week 3 work. Am amazed with Flicker. Was surprised about the number of people who are willing to put theire photos on line for all to see.
Technology has let me down in the last few weeks with internet problems at work and my home computer crashing. Hope I keep up to datewith the rest of this course.
