Task 13 Del.icio.us

The Otter group Tutorial gave a great overview of the features and it was more engaging than digging through the very text based help page of the tool.

On the PLCMCL2 account there was another antipodean 2.0 learner whom i said hello to in a comment.

My experience of Bookmarking / Tags has been on our shared TAFE site for library suppliers I have found at work. Here is our link.

Some of the comments added to the the bookmarks by other users demonstrate the "Free" nature of the language used as tags by the way people are percieving the resource for their own purposes.

I see the value of Del.icio.us as a research tool in the two fold way described in the POdcast
1) Create Reading Lists: - find material on a topic: share it with peers: connect with others
2)Syllabus Buidiing : give access to material via URl : PDF post to Blog use permalink as del.licious ....with permission of course!

TASK 12 Rollyo

Created the account, (this is a note to self user name Cate_ Ab same as for the Library thing )
I needed help...THANKS TANYA :).... to get my Searchbox working here.

So it is definitely time to seek out how to make a great cup of coffee, try BARISTA.
Enjoy!

Again glimpsing at the range of the interests users of this site have is just wonderful . The obvious way to transfer it to library work environment was illustrated by the PLMCM Research- Homework site.

TASK 11 Library Thing

This has been my favourite task to do: it was great to get an introduction into the site this way and create an acount. Not only is it going to be so useful it has the added bonus of potentially creating this new social network. I love it !
