#11. LIBRARY THING.....

I would have to say Library thing is one of my favorite exercises. Firstly it was easy to login to. (most importantly).

Secondly I like the idea of searching and cataloguing books (not just from your own personal collection but other Libraries as well) online.

When searching books, it quickly finds the title and it's proper author.
You are able to connect with members online, with similar book interest.By using librarything you can choose between a standard blog(that shows book,authors,or tags) or A search widget (that allows members to search and view your own book collection.

All in all it would be a useful tool to have in our library catalogue system.Just think how much time and energy it would save the Cataloguer with all the paperwork.

#10. Online Image Generator.....

I chose a custom motivation poster(from Flickr Toys)as theme..
You can use your own words to match with the picture you've chosen (from the computer). And you can also set and colour your own borders.

The only problem was, the poster was too big to fit in the blog. So it had to shrink in size. To see it in full size- you need to Click onto the picture itself,on the right.

#9 A few Useful library Blogs & a Few of my Favorites as well...

Firstly a big thanks to a few of my work Bloggers for helping me to understand the concept.It's like having your eyes open for the very first time... It's a great feeling...
And one of the benefits that I found using Bloglines- is that you are able to gain & store information about any topic that you want and share it with your fellow Bloggers .
And learn what library information (in particular for e.g) is available around the world. Simply amazing... Again I hope it is something that we would be able to use in our library Service. What a benefit that would be.

I've attached a few library related blogs that I think is interesting.... And I added a few of my favorites as well,as a treat.

SUCCESS AT LAST.........................

My eternal thanks to Crissy (you know who you are) for your patience and assistance in helping me with my Bloglines.........
Main problem was remembering my user name passwords....Damn ..Overall

I have to say it has been a challenge for me, but I've finally got the handle of it. I can see the benefits of this blogline - Both professionally and personally in different levels.

I was surprised 0r should I say amazed by the wide range of websites that were available for RSS feeds. The main problem was choosing Which one? Decisions.... Decisions.... One must make.
It would be an definite advantage to our library and to our customers,most importantly to have this available to them.

#8. RSS FEEDS & BLOGLINES........

THE MIND BOGGLES.....I'M STILL WORKING ON THIS AREA. IS THEREFORE TO BE CONTINUED..........................

7.# TECHNOLOGY...........

#TECHNOLOGY: DIGITAL CAMERA
TO BE HONEST- I'M NOT VERY TECHNOLOGICALLY MINDED. HOWEVER I DO PREFER THEM TO BE QUICK & EASY TO USE, THAT WAY LESS THINGS CAN GO WRONG WITH THEM.
(SUCH IS LIFE, AS THEY SAY............)
HOWEVER I DO ENJOY BEING CREATIVE WITH A DIGITAL CAMERA. THEIR EASY TO STORE,COMPACT & LIGHT TO CARRY. AND ARE ADJUSTABLE TO THE SURROUNDINGS. AND THE BEAUTY OF THAT IS THAT THEY CAN ALSO BE USED AS A FILM RECORDER, AMONGST OTHER THINGS ETC,ETC.
