Discovery Experience #9

I set up 8 RSS feeds to my blog. They include About ContemporaryLiterature, bloglines \ News, Nebraska Library Commission Announcements, notariv's favorites, NYT Book Review, The Shifted Librarian, USA Today.com books - Top Stories, and Washington Post Book Reviews.

Discovery Experience #11

I worked with LibraryThing about a month ago. I was involved in a project for basic skills-organization of materials class. I entered my boyfriends DVD movie collection into LibraryThing and tagged the movies with categories like action, comedy and sci-fi. It will be nice to have a tagged list so he can share his collection with his friends.

Discovery Experience #7

The RSS feeds has been a bit difficult for me to figure out. I keep on going back to read about it. I have set up some feeds in my blogger account that will be helpful when searching for my specific needs and interests.

Discovery Experience #7

I am having a difficult time figuring out how to get to my account for blogging. I wanted to edit and Laura Johnson helped me figure out the difference between where I set up my blogger account and my actual place to edit. Now I have to figure out how to make comments and I will accomplish that too! Navigating between places has been a challenge at times!

Discovery Exercise #22

I created a Meebo account. I sent a message to the Ask A Librarian web site and I had a response.

Discovery Exercise #21

I added the Lincoln Journal Star podcast to my RSS feeds on my Blogline account.

Discovery Experience #23

My favorite fun discoveries on Learning 2.0 are OneSentence.com and the generator that changes hair styles.

I had a difficult time with a couple of the exercies. I found myself going back to previous exercises to review so I could accomplish tasks in other exercises.

The Help Team were great whenever I asked them questions and when I needed advise. I am more of a hands on learner, so maybe if some of the exercises were presented in a classroom activity I may not of struggled on a couple of the exercises.

I did enjoy learning new "things" on the computer and I hope I can be a part of other learning experiences in the future. I can see the need for education in the web world. So much more can be done to spread knowledge in our world utilizing what is availabe on the Internet.

It may be difficult for you to follow my blogs as I really got mixed up a couple of times and had to go back and forth several times and edit. I have my blogs recorded under 2 titles, Love to Learn and Like to Learn.
