One more thing

If I had to pick, I'm most impressed with the Search Roll technology of the new things tried. There's something to be said for formal exploration, so I'm subscribing by email to Learning 2.1 and seeing how well I keep up. Watch this space for more...

More relevant?

Facebook's Ohio Network is huge- but I found a tidier group named "Addicted to Alden" and found a good number of Learning 2.0 Facebook collegues. Other suggestions welcome- I'd love to use a site like this to field ref questions- is anyone having success on that front?

podcasting

My own first effort at recording a potential podcast is still in in production, but in navigating Podcasting.net to my RSS feeds, I found one like what I'd wish to do. Have a peak at Don't Panic: Information Resources For When Your Deadline Looms! from the Library Channel, one of the more relevant of 259 entries under "reference" I'd found there back on the 9th.

Found at Youtube- my sister

When my sister told me she'd been in a commerical for a Mr. Clean that was posted at Youtube, I'd smiled indulgently. But I've found it by searching for "Mr. Clean Commerical" at the site, titled the Wager. She's clearly going for exasperation in the clip- see if you like it as well as I do.

Web 2.0 winners

Under the topic "Philanthropy" (not to be confused with "Philosophy," natch), Donorschoose looks like the way philanthropy should be done. Proposals and progress toward goals are shown together, with a option to throw some money toward a specific project built right in. I’m staggered that this was the #2 choice of the winners in its category.

Google progress

I rather like the webbased Google products- here's a doc I made to summarize my Learning 2.0 progress to date.

Fast look at a wiki

I've been to the alternative PBWiki site and added a book review- something not featured below yet. But for those interested, Stax the library cat's favorite wiki for local course-related library instruction is here
