You Tube Web 2.0 video & Library 2.0 video00

WEB 2.0 #20 wK 9

Interesting to check out the video sites. It would be a great way to advertise an upcoming event ( in a video form) makeing it accessible to all. Great for social networking, whether it google maps, delicious, or technorati, or blogs, wikis. Its very interactive. I enjoyed the sports clips, and the adds are very creative, certainly some vids. for advertising a product are very well done, and you will remember seeing the video, gets your attention. it.

Library 2.0 video - Manifesto --Thought this was very well done, and start ones thinking about what we need to do to keep up with what the public requires of us.
Recognizing these requirements and incorporating them into the services that we can try to offer in the upcoming years. And having the websites set up so that users can also contribute through blogs, etc. would be very beneficial to Libraries so we are keeping up to date with their current requirements.User feedback is very important so we are moving in the right direction of their current needs.

Great info to see the ratings on the vids. The comments you can leave on site, add to your favourites, share, or post, lo ts of interaction.

Web 2.0 tools #19

Fun checking out the different site, and even more that they have rated the 3 best in all the categories, certainly saves a lot of work for people checking them out.
In checking these tools out, I found lots of sites that would be very help to all.
Sites I checked out for
Books--Lulu >( for people interested in publishing their own and selling world wide.
Judys books - shows what city has the best sales on their books prices, publishers coupons available etc.

Business sites -- I check out the one called " Instant Bull"- with lots of categories to choose from, punch in your stock and catch up on all the news of how it is doing through business magazines, blogs and ratings, articles.

Maps sites - for the most current up to date maps, and directions, with many to choose from, but nice it lists the top rated 3.
Medical tool sites - just type in your subject and then it will take you to lots of information, you can leave questions on this site, for repsponse, even having the delic.ios site so you could keep track of only the info sites you wanted.

Google Docs #18

This has been an interesting lesson, I did try to actually make up some forms docs. from the "Zoho writer" and added some tabs, I did find it a little confusing but played around with it, did some searches and tried to post them to my blog.

Google Docs--

I think this would certainly be very helpful to students or just about everyone, the fact that you can do a doc. and save that doc on line, so others also have access to it, and yet you don't have to carry around the drive or diskette. Also publishing doc. as a public file would be helpful to many, so that they are able to read it as a webpage. Handy that you don't have to buy and install a program to do a lot of these things that are listed both by Google Doc. and Zoho writer. - Helen

Sandbox

It was fun playing with the "sandbox, and that you could list any subjects and also have others contribute to it. Fun to also check what others had put in it also, with their pictures etc. Interesting that anyone can "edit" or edit any part of it also. This one was fun!! Helen

Favorite books, Pets, and places to Travel

The book that I have enjoyed lately is A Portrait of Owen Sound, 1905-1955 which I have purchased my own copy of. I really find the old photos so interesting and just to see the same locations now and how it has all changed, or some of it may still have been preserved,. I really find fascinating.
