Week 6 # 13 Del.icio.us

I did look at the tutorial but it was a little hard to follow. I have decided not to set up an account, because I have so many now that I cannot keep track of one more. I went in to see what others had tagged and found a vast number of subjects. Very interesting. I put in ancestors to see what resources I would pull up and was surprised to see over 2,000 resources to use. Is was kinda cool to see what someone else has tagged that was not just about ancestors. You could spend hours just looking at what everyone has posted. The only resources I knew about were ancestory.com and heritagequest.com, so with del.cio.us, I will be able to find many more and look at what others are using.

Week5 # 12 The Library "ELF"

This was so easy to do. I really like the way it is set up. There is a calendar right there on the front page and below it your list of books. I like how it is broken up in different catagories. With just a quick glance I can see what may be overdue, how many holds I am waiting for etc. As you are looking at your account, you can also browse other lists such as amazon and book clubs. What a great set up. Very easy to read and all your information is right there in front of you. You don't have to go to different screens to see what books are overdue and what holds are not filled yet. As you can tell, I like the Library "ELF". Even on the calendar it tells you that you have late books, and on a particular day that you have items due. Very user friendly.

Week 5 # 11 A thing about Library Thing

I really liked this becasue there are so many books to choose from. Not only can we see what others are interested in, but we can also join a group to discuss our selections. I went to the talk page and saw all the different topics about books. It is amazing the different books people like to read. I really wish that I had more time to do this exercise, so I could explore all the books others have read. I am always looking for new authors to try out. Great exercise this week.

Week 5 # 10 Play around with Image Generators

This was so much fun. i did need a little help getting the pic to post, but wow was it alot of fun. I used the avatar. It was fun to try different looks and be able to see what it would look like before posting the pic. This will be one that I go back and explore more. http://avatars.yahoo.com/

Week 4 #9

How easy this was to do. I wish that I had more time to add different websites to look at. There are so many topics out there to choose from. I used topix and it was very good and extremely easy. When I have more I will go back and spend alot of time and seach thru more . I liked this exercise. One of the easiest ones so far.

Week 4 #8
