#17 Zoho Writer: well l managed to post it with a picture but now l just need an online editor and i must press spellcheck before posting. I do like some of the features like  special characters and the comments boxes. i am not sure what the anchor thing does but i think this program could be quite useful to use. I would like to know if this program could convert text saved in another format so that it can be accessed on any computer

I love the concept of Wiki's now. I especially love Book lovers wikis and and the librarys using annotated catalogues, its fantastic to look at the covers and see what people think about certain books and titles. i read a few book reviews and then got enthusiastic and reserved them myself. I really like librarians sharing successes, this is fantastic to find out what what has been successful in different libraries and i found the online communities wiki very useful and started thinking about how we could do this. I loved community links and local walks and resturants and we could have a wiki on whats happening in the local community. I am glad that i took the time to look at some of these wikis, they were great.

Forge ahead learners of the world and we will lead you. Well at least i am trying, i can see libraries are changing and need to change, we are learning and resource centres and need to embrace the cyber world even more than we are now . What a great thing it is that we have this chance to learn more. i can now read Library journals and understand the articles about 2.0 learning and i think its great that we have had to find the time to take on board all these new and exciting concepts.

OK first i thought this wasnt of any use to me at all, i could use it to find out what other people might think of things that i was interested in but really i have better things to do in life than read other peoples blogs but then i thought about how i could apply it to my work so i tried looking up peoples tips for successful storytime in libraries and found myslef very interested in the results so SUCCESS i can see this is a useful tool!!

So now i have learnt more than saying shhh!!
tagging is like freefall cataloguing with no rules. I can see how it would be useful to computer junkies but i dont think i use enough websites to justify an account in del.icio.us just at this stage but if i do become a web addicted computer geek in the future i shall return here.

Maybe I am not as excited as this bellydancing librarian but I am mighty pleased to be finally finished with week 5, lots of fun but quite time consuming.

#5 at last
