on to YouTube

Lu led me to a couple of fun sites. Talking cats and talking dogs also funny cats are fun to see. No chicken videos that I could find. Maybe My "boys" can help me do a video :}!

The library could video a program or booktalk and reach a lot of people or children. It would be a way to reach the public normally not coming into the branches.

"add on"

I went back to webware and discovered a major fauz pas. I didn't look "right" for different catagories. I tried Newsvine.com, read about using Flektor for pictures, and Conduit for customizing and personalizing your toolbar. I found a calendar that patrons could use that seemed to have easy to follow instructions. I think if a patron didn't have particular computer knowledge that the library person could set them up with one of these easy to use functions. They could do spreadsheets or form a document or make up a schedule on one of the selections. It is fairly easy to follow the steps. There is something for everyone at these diferent sites.

Exploring the Web

Web 2.0 Awards was easier to use than Webware. I could choose catagories that interested me such as travel and craigslist and manuever easily. Webware seemed to be entered by date and I didn't pursue it further.

More Google !

There is more out there than can be imagined. Zoho was easy to sign on but hard to figure out how to manuever through the process. Google spreadsheet was easy to figure out and I connected my family to my site. Yeah!
Google labs was a fascinating spot to explore, if only I had the time...
Google mars was fun to see and the graphs of comparisons was interesting. More things to learn!

Library Nana's Search Engine

If I have library ? I want to go to Spl, SnoIsle, and Tacoma public library to help local patrons. I set up my search engine @google and will customixe it as time allows to connect to websites that can give me quick answers for patrons. Yeah!

Library 2.0

After reading about virtual libraries and 3d libraries, my head is spinning. I can barely keep up now and the thought of more technology is mind boggling. I can see it happening after reading about different ideas of the future of libraries.

New Chicky

I used a "generator" to add a picture to my blog. It was an easy way to introduce my newest Chick born 7:44am on friday the 13th of April. She was 8' and 20" long. Mom and Dad are thrilled as is Nana.
