#16 So what’s in a wiki?

This was a good resource i was surprised to discover. I had alook at them all but particulary found the Library Success: A best practice wiki excellent info for librarians. They were all good but this one contained info on everything to do with the organisation of a Library. Or as it states" a one sopt shop for great ideas and info for all types of Librarians.

#6 Web 2.0, library 2.0

Rick Anderson's "icebergs" are real and its interesting what he has to say in his article. It makes sense that the library has to be available to everyone everywhere as much as we may not like this idea. Of course it also has to be user friendly or not many patrons except the whizz kids will be able to access the information the libraries have taken so much time and expense to acquire.
I think though he is right that one can't go all gung ho into purchasing extreme amounts or technology. But this is the future like it or lump it!

#14 Getting not-so-technical with Technorati

I searched popular bloggers etc and it seemed to have lots of info on everything other then that who has the time to read this stuff? NOT ME!

#14 Getting not-so-technical with Technorati

i did a keyword search for learning 2.0 in blogger central and i feel just from having a quick look that it produced more results then in the blog posts. I elt it was easier to read as well. But for the life of me i coyuldn't work out how to search with a keyword in Tags except for just scrolling down through all the tags which would take forever.
