THE END, SOB!!!

I am sorry to let this "thing" go. I have been really surprised as to how much I have learnt and how much fun I had. Initially I did'nt really want to do this but now that I am at the end, I do not want to finish. I have learnt things that I may never use again but at least I know what people are using and talking about. My favourites were YouTube and Flickr. I have been challenged and frustrated. But most importantly I have embraced new technology and have had a positive experrience.

E.BOOKS

Sorry about lack of communication, had a lot of work to do. I had a look at the World e.book fair site. I is an excellent site. I no not want "hard copy" to ever go away though as I am a collector of rare books ( 1860's shakespeare complete works-10 vol is my best find!!) But as a positive what a great tool for the disabled and the blind.

Podcasting mark 2

Have downloaded software for podcasting. As you have already seen, I love cats and animals in general. I have found a great podcast series sponsored by Purina petfood about pet health and care. I hope to add it to my blog when I figure that out. I used PODCAST ALLEY. COM. Podcasting would be a great tool for simple and quick training for library staff and the public in general.

Podcasting

I do not have the software installed to do this bit. Our I.T guy is off having a baby!!! God bless them!!! So I will have to wait a few more days.

YOU TUBE

Just a quick note: I could get lost with Youtube!!!I chose these clips for various reasons. I love classic comedy particularly english and the Goodies are my all time favourite. I love early Robin Williams stuff too. And of course, I love cats!!! I am getting two Abysinnians for christmas, Honest!!!
