This is a videocast (podcast) of a quilting video. It was rather easy to do . Almost like thing #20.The interview is with Sue Nickels & she talks about various topics: such as making a Beatles quilts with her friends, techniques on machine quilting & her books.
I was never a fan of videocasts, but as an instructional tool, I think it's great!

Well in keeping with my theme of quilting, I found ( no big surprise) a video on machine quilting with Shelley. Actually I always associated youtube with embarassing or funny videos. I would never think about using it as a tutorial. Glad I learned about it. It was very short but informative.

Well I went tothe Library Success & I found it very useful in discovering what a wiki is. I like the fact that you can gather info on recommended reading & the programming suggestions were very good as well.
The only thing I did not like is (not sure if I got this right) is that someone can delete what you have written. Is that correct??
So in keeping with my quilting theme I went to a quilt wiki:
http://wiki.allpeoplequilt.com/?t=anon
& found it very interesting. Makes me want to visit other wikis as well.

Well I added my name to the Google docs page. I really like Google docs rather than Word 2008. I find Word 2008 too confusing. I also went into new for G docs . & I really like what they have to offer. G docs is easy to use very user friendly. If I had to create a document for work & share it with other team members I could see that it would be easy to use & share.

To more powerful ways to cooperate
This was a very powerful article as far as the library reaching out to the world wide web for sharing topics or research articles that might be needed for other people or groups.It also creates an interest that people might not think of the library as far as sharing services or list cataloging. It's also cool to think that OCL might be integrated into a web site for research materials. Makes you really think of the world web out there.
To a temporary place in time...
I really like the last paragraph in this article : a knowledge spa.
In my years growing up with my local branch in Brooklyn & seeing what the library is accomplishing now in 2008, I am really excited to be in a techno-age of the library! Look how far we have come & reading what will be coming down the pike, I can't wait to see it all. See ya at the library.

Well my eyes have opened to a world that I did not know existed. Technorati is definitely interesting & definitely a place I would want to visit again. As far as what is popular for to blogs, videos, tagging nothing surprises me anymore. It's about what I expected people to be interested in. I am interested in what other libraries are doing though.
