Google Docs

First of all, I love google. Even though I think they are slowly taking over the world. Google docs has helped me organize my life and have a place to store important documents. I use google docs to store my most recent resume, help my boy friend keep track of his music requirements each semester, and plan supper each night.

Google is awesome!

LibWorm

Is the new library a digital library? Will we be seeing more institutional repositories? Should gaming be apart of the library? Do students want digital books? Should we loan out digital books readers?

These are things I am interested in reading about. This search engine was helpful. On a scale of one to ten with one being least and ten being the greatest. I rate LibWorm at a 7.5. I got way too much information being thrown at me. I also got the same title listed multiple times.

I did find some helpful link on IR's. I am about to be getting involved in my local IR and barely have a clue. I found a link that introduced what an IR is and a link on guidlines for an IR. Very helpful.

Library Thing

Hey girl do your thing, do your thing....

I am doing my thing on library thing. It is VERY easy to add my books. I have not had the time to add all my books. Such a sad thing. Though I have been putting in more time creating my wish list. I have a lot of series that are not complete.

DIGG

Do you digg it? If you like news then you should. Users search there favorite news sites and post to digg.com. Other users then decide if they like the stories. If they do then they digg it. Before learning of digg.com I did not know that the users submitted the stories. This is a very interesting site to see what news is most popular amoung digg members.

I digg it!
