Week X Exercise 17

pbwiki is so easy to edit. I enjoyed learning everyone's favorite things.

Week 7 Exercise 16

The Wiki WorldCat Pilot is a good idea, especially when our customers are accustomed to the Amazon model.
I am thrilled of finding Ricklibrarian's Selecting Books in a Connected World among other things thru Libray Success. http://ricklibrarian.blogspot.com/2006/04/selecting-books-for-public-library-in.html
InfoPeople has been working with WebJunction to provide training for librarians. I think Webjuction is good example for library staff to follow: http://webjunction.org/do/Home

Week 7 Ex. 15

Away from Icebergs It makes sense to be user-centered, instead of library centric.
More cooperation librarians are able to connect with one another much better now than ever before.
Library 2.0 means connection and distributed knowledge/authority to me.

Week 7 Ex. 14

Seach "Learning 2.0" by 1) Tags Directory, results in dozens; 2) Tags, results in hundreds; 3) blogs, results in thousands.
Explore the same Boing boing.

Week 7 Exercise 13

Found out more with help from April--No more "In box". My del.icio.us link is here.
Need to find out more on SlckerManager about the following:
There are a couple of ways to begin using your inbox. You can click the ‘inbox’ link at the top of any page when you’re logged in and then click the ‘edit inbox’ link on the right side. Or you can just click the ’settings’ link (top right corner) and then click the ‘inbox labels’ link under the ‘experimental’ section. Either way will get you to the same page where you’ll see a couple of text entry boxes. One is for adding USERNAMES and the other is for adding tags. If you know the del.icio.us USERNAME of someone you want to track, enter it in the ‘user’ field and hit the subscribe button. If you have a particular tag you want to keep tabs on, enter it in the ‘tag’ field and hit subscribe. Once you get the hang of this, you’ll fill up your inbox in no time. Here are a couple to get you started…for tags, try ‘productivity‘, ‘business‘ and ‘gtd‘. For users try ‘bren‘ (that’s me!) or ‘steverubel‘ (he’s prolific!)
