Earlier this week I completed the Del.icio.us bookmarks. I think it is neat that you can share your favorite sites with other people and can be used in the library as reference pages. A library could bookmark pages that tell things such as how to do citations in MLA or other formats. You could have a link to dictionary.com and your own OPAC. Google Docs is really neat. I haven't looked at this a great deal yet but I feel that this is a very useful social tool.

Del.icio.us

I have just finished tagging 5 websites. I tagged some of my favorite sites. Yahoo!, an Alabama Football page, Ateaseweb(a Radiohead page), a videogame website, and of course Blue 2.0's webpage. I also added Connected Libraries to my Network.

Wiki

I forgot to mention a few things. One is that wikis can be extremely useful at work; we have one. It is amazing. We use it to act as a manual for how to zone articles in the Daily Racing form. It also has a place to inform everyone when we will be absent. We have many other uses for it also. My wiki's website is
The daily wiki.

Wiki

I just made a wiki, but I feel that it would be a better blog. My wiki's name is thedailywiki and I want people to tell stories that have happened to them in there daily life. However it seems more like it should be a blog so I am thinking about making it this blog's theme. What do you all think? Input would be greatly appreciated, and if you have any great ideas for a wiki please post a comment.

RSS feeds

I have just finished making my page on bloglines. Signing up is easy and getting the blue 2.0 web page added was also easy. I have found the page's presentation to be a little confusing. One of the feeds i subscribed to is about cats. I haven't got to look at it a lot yet, but so far I have noticed several very cute pictures.

end of second week

Well it is the end of our second week of Blue 2.0, and I have enjoyed working on this. It is great that we are getting to use theses tools. Many of my co-workers have never made a blog until now. It seems that everyone is having a good time and enjoying it. We have been asking each other a lot of questions, and we have learned a lot from each other.

Well I had a little more trouble with AIM. I accidentally put in my email address as my screen name and have quickly discovered that master screen names, which apparently is the first one you sign up with, cannot be deleted or changed. Other than this mistake, signing up for aim was quick and easy. I don't really know anyone's screen name on AIM but I will soon. This can definitely be used for work. In a large office area, instead of walking over to someone or calling them, you could quickly send a person a quick IM question. I liked that AIM even had a c0-workers tab. I have never used aim before but have used ICQ and others. Thanks for reading.
