Summary of TLC 2.0

All in all this experience was useful and enlightening. I have found many new ways to use the internet, from using bloglines to keep track of blogs i like, to finding podcasts. I will definately be using some of these new tools in finishing my degree as well as in my daily life.

Facebook

I have had a faceook account for years now, so this exercise was not applicable to me. I love facebook though because it helps me keep in touch with friends i went to middle school and high school with, as well as family and current friends.

Podcasts

I used the podcast search directory podcastdirectory.com to find podcasts that interest me. They have a large site with many different methods of searching. I found one that interested me called dorktones.com, its a podcast from the netherlands of odd, rarely heard music from a wide variety of genres.

You Tube

I love you tube, i listen to music on it everyday, and occasionally watch TV shows that i missed. It is easy to use, and there is always something new to watch. The link to the video i posted is my current favorite song. What's cooler than heavy metal chellos? NOTHING! Hahaha :)

Zoho writer

I think this is one of the best web sites online for students, or anyone that uses multiple computers to write assignments. I think it will be very useful for me in the future, since I do my homework on a few different computers, depending on where I am. Its so easy to use, its just like using Word.

NSUlibs wiki

I tried to add my blog to the nsulibs favorite blogs page, but I couldn't, everytime I tried to, it said "error on page." So I created this blog post to show that I tried, but for some reason could not complete the task.

Wikis

Wiki's are an interesting new kind of resource that can definately be used easily by libraries, to improve accessability of information. They are king of an encyclopedia for various topics, and ideas. Libraries can use wiki's to have user guides for different types of databases and resources, subject guides, outreach ideas and information, programming ideas and information, etc.
