Library Thing

My favorite library technology is of course the internet and all the resources, databases and links we can use to get information through the library website and beyond to other websites.
All of the web 2.0 mashups that I looked at seemed to be very helpful, depending on the type of information you need to look up. They were pretty easy to browse thru and look at. My favorite one was Wikimapia. I wasn't even aware that these types of websites were available and if I did, I didn't pay much attention to them; because they can sometimes be confusing if you don't know exactly what the website is for.

Check out my meez, very cool. It took me a while to try and get it on my blog, but finally! Very cool!

Web 2.0

This week was almost completely different from the previous weeks. I really like going on youtube and watching some of their videos, I actually used youtube as a resource for one of my internet computer classes! And everyone seemed to really like it. I was really surprised to find ocls on my space and even more surprised to find so many ocls videos on youtube. It was fun watching some of the videos on youtube, except for the web 2.0 video with the ninja, I didn't understand it and will probably have to go back and watch it a few more times to get it. I only hope to keep learning new things with this course and I can't wait to do podcasting; I am very interested in learning more about that. I have heard so many things and have even seen a little bit of it, but I don't fully understand it (I missed the training part of that the other day at a meeting!).

Just some thoughts!

In going over the different learning styles, I realized that I am a little bit of everything! But if I had to choose just one it would be that I am mostly a tactile learner. I have learned to adapt to all kinds of learning styles because of school and church. The RSS Feeds activity was a little confusing to me, but I finally got it (though not my favorite thing). I added some shopping feeds and Techno Teens live from OCLS.
As for the learning 2.0 course, I think it is working to my advantage. I have learned so much in such little time. I am more confident now than I was before I started this course. I am thankful to all of you who took the time to put this course together for those of us who didn't know, or were too busy to learn on our own.
Thank you!
