Week 8 # 18

Zoho Writer

zoho writer was really quiet exciting i found it was pretty good that you can create a document on line and also off line so you can share a document with someone and add people who want to only read it and for others who want to edit Soho writer is easy to use and documents can be saved online.

Week 7 # 17 Social networking

I created an account in Facebook and had a look around finding how friends can keep in contact all around the world share photos see what people are talking about and even finding jobs and keeping up with the news.



I looked at Auckland City Library bebo.com and created my account and added some friends


i have many friends now.

Then i looked throughMy space.com I was able to look at it without a login.

Then i created a facebook.com account it doesnt let you look around without creating an account and you have to request to be a friend it seems like a great net working site.

I looked at Hennepin-County-Library and thought that was very good they have a lot of fans and you chat with the librarian and put a wall post if you wanted to.

Technorati

I looked around Technorati i found that you can look at all different subjects and latest news.I looked at the popular blogs top one being Cashmonkies.
I looked at Library 2.0 in English and there were 5,331 results and then there were only 124 in German.So you can change the results by some authority or language.

Still Wiking

The Princeton Public Librarys example of their " Booklovers Summer reading Book" Club" would work well at our Public Libraries.
It would be a great challenge for members to learn about Wikis too while
they log in to read reviews and add their opinions this would be great for contact and feed to our members.
I looked at themanukaulearn.pbwiki.com and listed my blog to Favourite-Blogs .

Wiki Wiki (something fast )

Wiki Wiki

This was a quick and easy to edit website where info can be edited changed or rewritten by users

or members of the site so posting knowledge on subjects and exchanging of ideas can be frequently updated.

Book Lovers Wiki

booklovers.pbwiki.


Princeton Public Library created a "Book Lovers Summer Reading Club Wik "to create a "snapshop in time" of what their club members were reading during the summer programme.

This project was a huge success.



Online Communities.
