Week 7: Microblogging
I got my Twitter account and am following the Unquiet Librarian (she really is!) and Sarah Dressden, one of my daughter's favorite authors. It's interesting to see how they alternate between professional and personal tweets! It makes me realize how we have to juggle work and play in our lives. I like microblogging because it's short and sweet. I can see this being a great way for librarians in a district to stay in touch and to share what's going on in their libraries!

Week 6: Tagging and Social Bookmarking
This week's lesson has been very useful to me so far. It allows me to access my bookmarks and have access to a multitude of other websites that will be very helpful to me. I love the tagging feature that narrows the search and makes it easier to find what you need. What a great way to share websites that are important to you and others with common interests and needs.

Week 5: RSS and Feed Readers
For this week's lesson, I chose to go with an Add to Feed My Inbox RSS feed. I chose to add a MSNBC news feed and some of my friends' blogs. It's nice to have it emailed directly to my account. I think I'm going to have to do something about the MSNBC feeds, there are too many!

Week 4: Photo Sharing
Opening a Flickr account made me realize the possibilities of photosharing within the library community. I'm always trying to find cool and interesting things to do in my library and with sharing our photos, this is the perfect way. I like that you can tag your photos and that you can limit the viewers to your site.
