#19 Discovering web 2.0 tools

Had a play in a couple of sites. Am impressed with www.realtraveler.com
After having planned a trip to NZ and booked everything via the net, this website would have been handy as all elements of travel are in the one site and there are links to "real life" experiences to read.
Will keep playing and learning
stay tuned

What a great site , so useful for everyone to use. Now thats what new technology should be about. Something that benefits everyone, that everyone can use wherever they are. Great way of keeping your resume, documents up to date . Easy to share documents through email , without having to make sure the other person has the same wordprocessing package.
fantastic tool.
will be utilizing that tool , often

#17 Sandbox wiki

Dabbled in the sandbox. Its just another list / group/ message board to add comments to.
short chapter this one

#16 wiki

Wiki, is a quickie......... way of building your own little website of information that is wanted, needed or already available . You can then put in your own two cents worth and others can add or erase or change it. Umm. Lots of good uses, and lots of bad users . " for the good of man" only if its a "good man" using it. When I have spare time from interacting with fellow humans , will have indulge in wikis .
onto the next chapter.

#15 Library2.0

Where will it all end. There is no end in sight for technology and libraries, and us "mere mortals" as librarians will become all knowing. Sometimes it feels like we are little rats running around a wheel, always trying to catch our tail or get ahead . Had a look at all of the papers and the mind is racing. Libraries are not just the building where the books are housed, but a collection of inf0rmation in paper or digital form that people can access from wherever they are.
Fascinating about librarian avatars, - will storytime be delivered by an avatar , interesting concept. Next chapter awaits.

#14 technorati

Well, I'm still rolling around in space , but now in technorati . I can see a use for it, but dont take to the idea of being "stalked" and tagged by every man and his dog , in cyberspace, just because I happen to be interested in a topic. I like to know who has the same interests as me and not be looking over my shoulder.
I am just getting a little bit overwhelmed by all this so-called "fun things to do " with webpages, blogs, etc . All these tools are great to use in a "professional and educational " capacity , but unfortunately I think that they are making it easy for morally corrupt people to fuel their warped sense of "fun" and invading other peoples lives.
Time to get back to some old-fashioned morals and values , the old way , by face-to-face social interaction , not in fromt of a computer screen.
Stay tuned , hopefully the next installment will be "fun"

#13 Del.icio.us

Looks like a great tool, and very helpful in organizing all of my interests in the one place that I can access anywhere, even in cyberspace!! When I'm not pursing these interests in the real world, I will have time to organise my interests in computer world. I know where I'd rather be.
stay tuned
