# 20 You Tube

This is the first time I have had a look at You tube. I wasn't impressed, nearly everything I went to was rude! So I went back and had a look at the ones that were listed, they were a lot better. I really liked the 'mobile library' on the 'Do you want to be a librarian' clip. I picked the clip 'library dominos' because I thought it might be fun to do that at work.

# 19 Discovering Web 2.0 tools

This exercise was one of the easier ones, I had a look at the 2.0 awards list and then I went to the Web 2.0 tool directory, it is amazing how many sites are there to browse through. One of the things I really liked was I didn't have to sign up to anything, and I didn't have to actually do anything except browse through the different sites. How it would be used in libraries I'm not really sure.

# 18 ZOHO

Well I had a look at the zoho writer, I even registered, though I had promised myself I wasn't going to register for anything else, I am having trouble keeping up with all the passwords! Anyway I played around and typed up a document, then I even added a picture. Only trouble was when I tried to publish it to my blog, I got the whole page of instructions as well. I really don't think that I would use it on a regular basis, if I need to make a document I think I would rather use WORD, and save it on a usb.

# 17 Sandbox

Well I have been to the sandbox and had a play, I added my blog to the favorite animals, I also tried to add a photo, but I couldn't work out how to do it. It looks like I will need the help of 'Larrikin Lurch' again! It was interesting reading other peoples comments.

# 16 Wikis

Doing this learning 2.0 is like trying to learn a foreign language. I had never heard of wiki before, let alone used it. I can see where it would be a really helpful tool to share information, and gather new information. I am actually thinking of using it to organize Christmas dinner this year though I will have to educate other family members on using wiki or we could go hungry. As part of the exercise I added my blogger name to the list, but I'm not sure I added it to the right one, only time will tell.

# 15 Library 2.0

This is a bit difficult for me to blog about because I'm not really into all this technology. I am sure library 2.0 will be useful in the future, but how it will effect me personally I am really not sure.

# 14 Technorati

Okay, so now I have had a look at technorati and I have created another account (more passwords to remember!) anyone looking at my blog can now tag it as a favorite. I have also claimed my blog so it is all mine, what more could a person want than their very own blog!

# 13 Del.icio.us

I have never used bookmarks before, except for the old fashioned kind in between the pages of a book. Having a look at del.icio.us I think I will now be using it, as it is an easy way of keeping track of my favorite sites. Though anyone reading my blog page would be aware that I am not one who uses a computer to any extent, but by the time I have finished doing the learning 2.0 I may even become a permanent blogger.

This was one of the easier exercises which I have had to do. Though I still got a work colleague to help. I'm not sure if this is going to be of any benefit to me personally.

# 11 Library Thing!

I found library thing really good, and I will most likely be using it quite a bit in the future. Though it will take me quite a while to put all my books in as I have quite a collection.

#8 Bloglines

This was an extremely frustrating exercise! If it wasn't for a very patient work colleague I don't think I would have got anywhere with this one. I owe my sanity to her, she perserved while I was ready to throw the whole computer out of the window.

#10 Image Generator- become an m&m

http://www.becomeanmm.com/
I thought this m&m generator is really fun because I love m&ms, I was actually surprised how easy it was to do this exercise, as I have been having trouble with the rss feed exercise. So for the moment I have skipped it and I will go back to it later.
