Wikis, Online applications & Tools.

Week 8 : Wikis, online applications and tools.
I have looked at several examples of library wikis - and there was nothing wiki about it, it was quite time consuming. Mmmm, I'm not sure about wikis. I feel that with anyone able to edit the information in a wiki, it is not constant, or reliable, it is simply the opinion of whoever edited it last. ... to be continued ...

Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati.

Week 7 : Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati.
Having given up on week 6, I will attempt week 7. Easier said than done. I tried to view the 12 minute Del.icio.us tutorial and it caused my computer to crash ... not a good start. Never fear, I shall perservere.
Later ... much later. I have viewed the tutorial and whadayaknow? You guessed it, another user name, another password. And now it is time to go home, I have already used my blogging hour in work time this week.
Yours cynically

Instant messaging and skype

Week 6 : Instant messaging and skype.
Here we go again ... another installation, another registration ... therefore another email address, another password, another icon on the desktop. As the Windows live messenger site states itself - Blah blah blah.

Week 5 was play week, well I don't want to play anymore!!! Tune in tomorrow incase I have changed my mind ... but don't count on it.

Week 5 part 2

Week 5 : Playweek part 2 : Librarything.
I may be a librarian but I am not so anal as to want to catalogue my personal book collection, but for the purpose of this excercise I have added 10 of the books I have recently read and thoroughly enjoyed. Here is my catalogue link. http://www.librarything.com/catalog/m.manning

Mr. Picassohead

Week 5 ... Play week - Online image generator. I played and found Mr Picassohead so created a couple of self portraits in the style of Picasso BUT where have the images gone???? I emailed them to myself and am yet to receive them to fing out how to get the images into my blog. SO I have the link here which may or may not work. Otherwise search on the Mr P site for mam and the labels below will be there along with other 'mam' things which are not mine.

Self portrait after Picasso.

Week four : Flickr

I have flicked and picked and uploaded some pics on Flickr.

Here is one of them, a neat sculpture on the Brisbane waterfront.

RSS

Week three - RSS feeds and netvibe accounts accounted for, albeit a tad late. I can't say I am enjoying this yet. It is meant to be fun isn't it???? It is very time consuming when 'one' doesn't know what 'one' is doing. Never fear, I will perservere
