RSS Feeds and Delicious

RSS Feeds
This was really easy, I just had to remember how to delete old feeds off Google Reader that I used last year. Other than that I really liked using the RSS Feeds on Google Reader.

Delicious
Using Delicious is really simple, how ever I don't use a Yahoo email as my main sending address so I found it annoying. I can see the benift of using it in libraries and schools, but it's not for me.     

Discovery Exercise

This Youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWzigkpR7yg is a really insightful video about Information Literacy.

I liked the veriations of the Google search and Woofer search examples

I do believe that is have good Information Literacy search skills, but theres is always room for improvement

Podcasts and Librarything

Podcast
Podcasts are auto and/or video files that can be about anything are released on a regular basses, these are able to be downloaded to computers another computer based devices 

Librarything
I don't really like the way that the site is set out with explanation of what the book is about, I also don't like that fact that you have to pay the site so you cane keep a record of over 200 books . The only thing that I did like about the site was that the books were displayed by there covers and you could choose what version you wanted to display.
