Video added

Well let's hope it works. I have watched some videos on YouTube and Google Video. There is so much stuff there I go blank at what to look at. I checked out the links mentioned on NSWPublicLibrarieLearning2.0 some where very good. Mosman Library wow, they have had some impressive visitor's and it is great that is able to be shared with Libraries less able to have many visitors of note. I have tried embedding a video once and it hasn't worked, I shall of course try again.

Easter Weekend

I have been relaxing at home over this Easter break. I have quickly read through week 5 Wiki's and added some comments to the NSWlearning 2.0 wiki. That was fun and many interesting comments on their as well. It seems we are mostly misunderstood by the public who use us as well as the ones that don't. We may need to look into offering guided tours of our Libraries during operating times for interested parties to learn about us in the work place!!. I have just printed off some material for my Diploma studies which will be kicking into high gear over the next few weeks, which will keep me very busy. I am enjoying the challenge of learning all these interesting Web2.0 gizmo's, trying to fit in the time at work is near impossible, however I love getting together with my colleagues and discussing how we are going and helping them if I can.

I can see great scope for Wiki's in the work place for ease of communication with interest groups, as I am sure we would all agree communicating is a difficult part of keeping staff and other colleagues up to date with projects etc. and a great place for idea sharing. My post would'nt be complete without my adding a pix of my girl Anika. This shot was taken a few years ago on Sawtell headland.

What a week!!

What a week indeed. I have worked on my RSS, and setup some feeds to sites that I will enjoy
catching up with. How much fun not to have to go looking, they come to me. I have set up quite a few with National Geographic, ABC news, Animal Lovers sites included. I have just looked through their latest feeds and found it lovely to see news articles you don't get on TV. I am really enjoying this Web 2.0. I had save this as a draft then had to hunt to find it again, but as you can see I managed it. Does life get any slower???.....(When you die, I here you say). Well I would like it a little slower for a while before that. Several of my colleagues and I tried on Saturday morning and yesterday morning to do some blogging at work, hoever we had a new program installed which locked us out. We have it sorted now, so that those who would like to come to work early can get access to the Web pages required.

New day

I am really tired today, work hectic as usual. I am going to add a photo of my beloved malautes who share my life. I am of course having lots of fun with Flickr and Web 2.0 it is such a great team building process and we are all learning as we go. i will be starting my Diploma soon and this is helping getting into the learning mode.

Malamutes

I have been browsing Flickr. I found my favourite subject 'Alaskan Malamutes' there where some amazing photos which I will revisit again. I am fortunate enough to share my life with a malamute 'Anika' is her name, she is the sweetest baby ever. I also searched the National Library, War memorial photos for my granddad's battalion. How wonderful it is to have access to these images.

Oh, the loggins and passwords.... I was stuck for a while but have got on top of it now. I am really enjoying this learning and looking forward to the weeks to come. I recieved a comment on my previous post. Woo Whoo. I wish I had more time to try these things out at work, however with our council blocking so many of the sites it is difficult to manage. I can't wait to tell a friend of mine I have a blog. She is A Uni lecturer of Multi media and been blogging for years, she will be so proud of me.
