Thing 30 - Final Post


This program opened my eyes and wander my mind with too many things to learn. It's all about brainstorming, reading, thinking, and understanding. I gained so much knowledge.It's not just aiming for the award but it's a huge benefit for me on the end. I enjoyed reading other people's blog, all the positive and negative comments on some of the website that we've explored. This was a very valuable training that I need to take in consideration, with all the new technologies I came across helped me a lot to be able to implement it at my workplace.I thought I will never make it to the final episode. Yeah! I'm very proud to myself that I accomplished something. I am ready for another online training like this, I like working and learning on my own pace.My suggestion was to give more lab schedule to allow us more time to work on our training.Overall, I thank my supervisor for helping us when we have questions and problems. Thank you once again to Cindy. I hope and expect that you'll allow us more time again on our future training. Let's celebrate!

Thing 29 - Learning 2.0 Experience

This was a great idea of bringing in the Library 2.0 in our library system.
First I don't have no idea what's all about it.I was thinking that this is another workload for me.With the busy schedule I tried to give myself some time to work on all the THINGS from the start. Honestly speaking I was amazed and overwhelmed with all the experienced I had on learning all these training.

I thanked some of my co-workers who helped me in some aspects that I didn't know what to do and other than that I am ready for another one or any online training. I enjoyed it, definitely I will go back to see some of the 30 things and save to my faves,I'm positive I can use it at work or for my personal use. Thank you to all the Library staffs who coordinated this Learning 2.0 training.

Creating another account? I think it's too much for me to remember all these usernames and passwords. I know this is another tool of search engine, but I prefer to use what I have already established and haved saved on my faves. I was frustrated and disappointed while doing the search, it does not open some of the link in my computer at work and I just gave up.I think it's up to some people what they prefer to use and choose like using this type of search engine.

Library Thing


Registration is simple, very easy to join. I have quite a few collections at home and most of the selection that I have are about health, cookbooks, and some fiction books in general.Free library cataloging, easy to add books by title or ISBN you can add tags on each title. I highly recommend to people who are book lovers, also to people who are in groups doing book discussions and book clubs. I love it and now I can have a private library and catalog my personal library with style and grace.

Online Image Generator


This is the coolest stuff I did on 2.0 blogging, it's fun and easy.You can do anything you want to blog your photo images. This is my daughter and future son-in-law. I wish them luck.

The website of the photo frame generator that I picked:

Podcast & Vodcast

I check the Arizona State University, The Library Channel and I found a lot of information to help the students in the community area. They used the podcast video for tours, about news information. It offers a lot of resources for students, like the group study room, wireless computers, teach research classes and more. Students and other people come back for some reason that they already knew what their library can do to their lives on everyday basis.

It's almost the same thing what we have here in our library we offer computer classes, genealogy and more, I think it would be better if we have a podcast on our website to show to the public what we offer, and maybe we can convince people to check out what's going on in our library.

Podcasts

I was really disappointed for the first time while in the process of searching through the first two discovery resources, I can't access to it and when I tried the yahoo podcasts it was a very successful search I went through. I like to watch and listen to music through you tube, interesting. I have my mp3 player and I think I will not use it for this stuff, I can always go to my pc at home to do all these things.
