Rollyo

I personally did not like Rollyo and can't see any use for me in the future. I did not find it user friendly or easy to navigate.

Library Thing

I have used Library Thing for my Information Needs of Young Adults class at FSU. I really like it and thing that it is a great way to check out new books and what other people are reading.

Here is the link to my Library Thing page:

Online Image Generator

One of the sites I visited for this exercise was The Generator Blog. On this blog there were many cool things, but the one that really caught my eye is getting my name in Chinese. It is up above! I liked this site a lot, but I was not so fond of the other ones, Letter James and FD Toys.

Podcasts and video

I watched "The Library Channel" on ASU website that I found on Google. What I did find frustrating about YouTube is that it keeps pausing. I think this is because of band width at the library. It just makes it harder to obtain the information from the site.

locating podcasts

I tried to watch the tutorial on Yahoo, but the link did not lead me anywhere. I do currently use Itunes and I can't see any personal reason to use anything else. With working with customers in the library it is nice to know where these are located so that they can use them at home.

YouTube

I went on YouTube and watched a really cool National Geographic video on the rattlesnake that was a featured video. There were other links that were on the page about snakes and I thought that was great to have similar videos listed on the page. There are so many differnet videos on YouTube that I could spend days watching them all!

Mashups

For Thing 22 I went Wikipedia to find out more about mashups and I went to the website mentioned in wickipedia called "Mashup Awards". From this page I checked out a website called Semapedia. I personally was not impressed with this site. It did not have much to offer me and I didn't find it easy to use. The second site I went to was called Chevelle. This website dealt with music and was very cool. I could see myself possibly using it in the future.
