I browsed St. Joseph County Public Library's Subjects Guides. I clicked on Wedding celebrations. The information was very informative about books on how to plan a wedding,
honeymoon travel destinations, music for a wedding, Brides magazine and dvds. I especially
liked clicking on the title of a book or music cds for planning a wedding and I was taken to the
SJCPL catalog where I could look at what libraries own the materials and other websites.
I viewed Wilkis and wrote about my favorite tv shows and linked to my personal blog and
I added an entry to the 2.0 Sandbox.
I got lost inWilkis and took a tour in another systems Wilkis sandbox because I was having
problems with Baltimore County's site.

Week 6: Tagging, Folksonomies, etc. Thing 13,14,15
# 13 I did the keyword search for "Learning 2.0" in Blog posts, tags, Blog Directory.
The results are different. In Blog posts the results were someone's comments about
tagging, someone talking about their experience "Speaking & Driving" to a conference and
2 cents worth information site.
Del.icio.us - I enjoyed the hotlist and Tips for Life section.
#14 Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati information is interesting.
I thought the information about the top favorite blogs, 15 top searches
and 100 top blogs was interesting. Top searches were Youtube, Ron Paul and Noelia.
I also viewed Engadget (tag) and read an article I phone 1.02 updates.
One of the top favorites blog is "Make money online" - Problogger.
#15 I read a perspective on Web 2.0 "To more powerful ways to Cooperate."
Libraries will continue to improve and expand with new technology for
years to come.
The future of technology will continue to grow with the use of Web 2.0 for OCLC with
intergrating collections of various libraries and services to consumer web space. In
the Spring of next year OCLC will release a search box allowing anyone with a web browser
to search Worldcat and allow non-cataloging library professionals, patrons and others to
contribute to and use Worldcat. Services in the future will include tagging, personal
cataloging, creating and sharing list, citation management and open URL resolver
information available to anyone. Web 2.0 is here to stay!
Participation in the 23 things is preparing librarians for the future of technology changes
that will occur by using Web 2.0 and viewing all the websites that are available in
Web on-line technology world.
Perpective #2: I read "Into a New World of Librarianship."
This article is not a new idea or concept. Librarians will always help users find information
by using print, non-print, internet and other resources.
In the past and the future, librarians will continue to plan services, collections, outreach,
and technology to meet the needs of the customers and the community.

Week 5: Play Week: Thing 10,11,12
I am playing around with the online image generator. The first online image generator
I had played with was the Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream builder making my own ice cream
and giving my special ice cream a name. I also played with the chalkboard generator and
wrote a message - Thank God you're going back to school. The message
is written in Spanish and English.
I got carried away and played a lot of what the online image generator offered.
I took the tour, opened an account with the Library Thing and cataloged five of my favorite
books. http://www.librarything.com/catalog.php
This task I enjoyed doing and looking at people who shared my interest in a particular
book.
I viewed the MoBuzz TV Review. It was to busy for me! It was hard listening to the three
men at the round table talking, viewing the movie in the background and music playing at
the same time. I didn't spend a lot time looking at this web site.
I quickly viewed Rollyo. The searches I did were Quick Quotes "Two wrongs don't make a right" received 509 matches, site showing 20. Public Domain E-book search, Rare Books and
free photos looking at flowers.

Week 4: RSS & Newsreaders Thing 8&9
I read the information about Really Simple Syndication (RSS) and set up
my own account with Bloglines newsreader account.
After opening an Bloglines account I read several articles in Feeds section of the blog.
"Gov't editing Wikipedia entries, "Microsoft" and top links for the past 24 hours - CNN
News Reports.
I'm having fun and exploring MERLIN and other blogs.
After setting up so many blog accounts, you have to write down all the accounts, login names and passwords.
