Week 6, #13 Delicious

We looked at this a couple of years back but I am not using it. I need to explore how to upload my work bookmarks and then look at others that are similar. I can see this as being helpful to students doing research in a particular area. We teach tagging when students take notes but do it as a personal exercise not in a social context. I think if I was working on a phd this might be a way to track what was going on in the field. For me I will have to work a bit more at trying to integrate it into my daily life.

Week 5, #12 Rollyo

Okay, this is a nifty way to add a particular group of search tools to our Firefox search bar. I may use it to develop a group of resources I search for cataloging. Right now I set up the public domain ebook search. More work on this for sure. I a going to put the link here so that it will be easy for me to get back to: Rollyo

Week 5, #11 Web 2.0 Award Winning Tools & Ning

Looked at VuFind, an Open Source Web 2.0 tool you add to your catalog to make it more Web 2.0 ish. Stanford, Villanova and the Library of Australia. Many more options than Destiny. Could I find a way to implement on the side or top of catalog. Must look into more of what school libraries are thinking. Also, look into taking a class on Open Source.

To prove that I visited the ning (although I know it is just one more ning I will forget to look at):
