Online tools and applications - sounds exciting doesn't it? well actually, when we finally had a small win with the pc's at work and could view the videos (no sound mind you!) some of the applications looked great. Like the Geogreetings - love that! And I like GoogleDocs - very easy to use and share. I am playing with circ rosters in GoogleDocs at the moment to see if this will make viewing, sharing and editing rosters faster and maybe even fun (ok - it's all going to my head now!).

Clouded

Ok the link will help you see the picture. http://library.adelaide.edu.au/local/dev/deweycloud.html

Is that a Dewey Cloud?

I thought I would leave this little cloud from Adelaide Library here for you all to check out (all who?). I think tagging like this is very cool and visually looks exciting, inviting you to discover what is behind those tags. However, whilst I think it works well for general browsing and discovery, finding a specific tag would burst my cloud quite quickly. Grouping the cloud into smaller clouds (100's, 200's, or 100-300's) would improve the functionality and asethics. What do you see in the clouds?

Jumping back into Web 2.0

Hi
I'm back into the web ... this time with my current subject I'm studying at uni Information Technology in Libraries. With License2tetsdrive Part 1 behind me, I certainly feel more confident reading through the modules as I recognise terms and web applications that I have tried recently ... so thanks SLQ! I am taking back my blog and will leave here a trail of new web discoveries, words of wisdom on information technology and cool stuff that I find. So grab your stack hat in case it's gets bumpy and off we gooooooooooo...

Not the end of the 2.0 World

We completed Part 1 and have learnt alot - I even remember most of it (bonus!). We were having so much fun, I think we should continue .... so if anyone wants to do more social networking, photo sharing, wikis, rss feeds etc let me know and we'll get together. It would be a shame for our blogs to gather cobwebs ... we could even just spend some time checking out everyone's blogs!.

Reflection in the cloud

Success at last. With alot of help from Dancing Girl, you can see my little cloud, I can twitter with my friends ... all three of you .... quality not quantity that's the important thing. The other important thing is persistence, each week we blog it out together. Seriously though I feel this has been the most valuable OPAL training I have participated in, mostly due to the delivery style and format of the learning. The flexibility of the sessions and ease of access to the various sites (access was easy, navigation? ... well - maybe the problem was my driving ..... nah!). The learning has been interesting, fun, educational (naturally), sometimes frustrating, but always engaging, keeping myself and the Noosa crew interested and online. And I am fairly confident (oh dear did my fingers type that) that I can assist others in the community to create a blog to keep in touch and to network - though I make no flickr promises. Fortunately I know a few flickr experts.

Arrragh.... ithere's a bad taste to my blog

Ok. I shall not give in. I have these awesome tasty tags in my del.icio.us account just waiting for me to work out how to connect the two .... you may note that I have del.icio.us tagline on my blog (hint. go to blog settings, add a gadget,choose javascript). I have had great fun adding my tags, love love love my cloud ..... so...small. Arragh my belly is rumbling.. time for tea. Tomorrow is another Library 2.0 day, Scarlett.
