week 24

2010-07-28T00:14:00.000-07:00

I would like to do more on google docs and survey monkey

week 24 the dark side of the web

2010-07-28T00:10:00.000-07:00

yes I have had emails asking for money to help to come to australia and also from banks asking for your details. emails from companies requesting private information. and have also had virus in computer due to coming in on attachment

week 23 mashups

2010-07-28T00:02:00.000-07:00

mashups would be useful to ad to web sites pulling information from one site to another to publish data in one area

looked at crime sites, australian winning mashups

week 22 instant communication

2010-07-27T23:27:00.000-07:00

Have used skype awhile ago where I was talking with people all over australia
facebook i use instant messaging with children and clients
It is also very good for children to get help with school projects
very useful for author talks and questions in library

week 21 more with google docs

2010-07-27T23:21:00.000-07:00

It is great for sharing documents between say an office where each person can access and change details if required with using an email. You are able to access from any where

week 20event management

2010-07-27T22:06:00.000-07:00

I like doodle the best which you can send invitations out to clients

google calendar is also a very good site to send invites out by email to clients to attend events that may be held.

Google calendar is also very good to remind me of things I have to do.
Eventbrite is great for checking on coming events.

week 19 productivity

2010-07-27T21:47:00.000-07:00

Have had a look at rss feeds and filters at this stage have not used maybe handy in the future to remove unwanted material that may come through.

week 18 screencasting, slideshows digital story time

2010-07-27T21:26:00.000-07:00

after checking the sites online tutorial, academic search, and culture shock stories

The academic search would be very useful in obtaining information on certain subjects
online tutorial is good if you want to keep up with movies
culture shock stories is a very useful site. You can find very useful information

week 17 nings

2010-07-27T21:04:00.000-07:00

I liked the moseman readers site advertising books authors videos, literacy awards on this site I found books that I would like to read.

I found two sites that would be useful the above site plus library 2.0 which I can keep in touch.

week 16 evaluation web 2

2010-07-27T20:59:00.000-07:00

I have set up google alerts but nothing to report at this stage
survey monkey will be very good to do survey on libary usage and customer satisfaction
feed burner may be of some use.

week 15 delicious

2010-07-27T19:28:00.000-07:00

sharing links with other people
keeping favourite sites ready to use

week 14 twitter

2010-07-27T18:47:00.000-07:00

1. Blog about the experience and be sure to post your Twitter username there so others can see it and follow you. You might even like to share your twitter name in a comment at the end of this post.
my experience using twitter has been interesting I found people that I could follow
and tweat too my user name is maggietrindall
2. Did you like micro-blogging? Do you love it, hate it or not sure? Explain.
Yes it is short and gets to the point I will get to like it over time, it will save time
3. How else could libraries use Twitter?
to communicate with other libraries and people around the world

week 13 changes to blogger

2010-07-27T17:38:00.000-07:00

I enjoyed changing my blog this looks better for using to post items for the library

I have not used blogger since completing the first course.

I have not used blogger enough to now how I would like using it. But I think I will get the hang of it shortly.

I would like to use blogs to let people know what is happening like events etc.
I have read a couple of blogs and find them interesting.
I have not commented on anyones blogs

week 12 wrap up

2010-07-12T23:29:00.000-07:00

I think there is possibilities for my library to use social networking to inform clients what is happening at the library perhaps using Facebook as this is very popular, and libraries already us this network

week 11 online applications

2010-06-09T23:08:00.000-07:00

wow this is great you could have a lot of fun using google doc's no more worry on how to set things up just use templates.

I think customers coming to the library should like using this, as it would be a lot easier for them

mashup

2010-05-28T18:30:00.000-07:00

This is my mashup. This would be a great way of advertising certain events. and for the libraries perhaps it could be used for bookmarks as well. You could have a lot of fun

Week 9: Podcasts and Audio

2009-09-16T22:20:00.000-07:00

This is a great way to let customers listen to an author who has visited the library,It would also be a great way of doing courses, as you could listen to the person explaining what they require you to do. It would be easier than trying to read what is required.

Universities use this system for their students to complete their work.

Answer boards and social searching

2009-09-16T22:13:00.000-07:00

Yes I think there would be a role for libraries in slamming the boards
This would be a great way of sourcing information to customers, living outside town and even in town. Customers would rate this highly, as children have a bad habbit of wanting information at the last minute

Possibilities for YouTube

2009-08-02T18:50:00.001-07:00

This would work very well for libraries when we have an author talk about their book for people who cannot attend the library.

It would be also very handy when we have competitions going and the public can view what has been submitted.

And any other event that may take place.

wiki

2009-08-02T18:02:00.000-07:00

I found it very interesting that you can edit anything that is put onto a wiki post and you can add more things should you need to.
I think a Book Lovers wiki would be very helpful
and Perhaps Wikia entertainment.
I also think a Wiki would be handy in keeping in touch with other people in the business without sending emails.

Create a blog post about your findings. What did you find interesting? What types of applications within libraries might work well with a wiki?

Rss feeds

2009-08-02T17:25:00.000-07:00

I like the idea of Rss and Newsreaders as a good source of information.
I chose the following sites for RSS reader
ABS for Librarians.
Librarybytes
ABC News
I think this would be a great form of technology to be able to let clients know what is out there and to receive information from other areas around the world.
Libraries can use RSS to promote what is happening in their area, and what new resources they have available.
Yes I found a couple of good examples of library blogs.
I like the Blogs from Helene Blowers regarding Public Libraries in the future, and the one about e-books. It lets you know what is happening out there.

flickr

2009-08-02T17:02:00.000-07:00

I have chosen a picture Of Wee Waa instead of using a photo that was already in Flickr due to copyright laws . I have enclosed the link belowwww.flickr.com/photos/41067405@N04/?saved=1

This would be a good way of sharing photos with family and friends all around the world
