Podcasts

I didn't say it before, but I'm also super excited to try my hand at podcasting too!

Library 2.0 and Why I'm Here - Thing 2

Reading about Library 2.0 made me think a lot about how the new technology will be used in libraries, and how I can use it myself. I think that I'm hoping to get some good practice in on blogging and using advanced features in blogs.

How do I find the time? I do a lot of this at home, or on breaks. My job is pretty fast-paced, but anything worth doing, is worth making time for. I do that with aerobics every morning, and I can do it with this.

I'm hoping I'll learn something new, that can make things easier for patrons, or even my staff in the library. All the social networking changes are embraced readily by students, so it makes sense for us to use the technology that they use to reach them.

Feedburner - Thing 3 RSS feeds

I like the Feedburner best out of the two recommended feed publishers. It is set up to work easily with Blogger, so that is an added bonus. This 23 Things on a Stick project is starting off to be pretty fun AND educational for me!

A whole lotta learning going on!

Tonight, I've been playing with the new blog. It isn't too bad, although I could see how this could eat up a lot of my time. I'm not too new to using Blogger, although I admit that it has changed a lot since when I last used it. I've used other blog sites like LiveJournal and Myspace much more.

This is really a fun, learning project for me. I'm excited to see what everyone else has up on their own sites.

Welcome to my new learning blog!

That is my new avatar I created. Cute, eh? This Blog created on Blogger was a pretty easy setup, and Free! That is a great combination! I can see lots of people using this for their first blogs, and since I love Google, and it is part of the Google family, that makes it even better as they all use the same password and username.
