#10 Play around with Image Generators

This was the 'bestest' exercise so far!

Could this be a clue to the

whereabouts of the

Staff Christmas Party?

#8 and #9 RSS & a newsreaders

Yes, I've read and listened to everything under the discovery resources and even ventured and completed the discovery exercise.

I managed to set up a bloglines account and subscribed to quite a few feeds - beware, I may be watching YOUR blog?

Time will definitely be saved as I regularly have a "sticky beak" at colleague's blogs.

# 7 Blog about technology

My start with technology in Libraries was at Eastern Regional Libraries using the "Reverse Brown Card System", mastering the soothing rhythm of needle-sorting and correctly lining-up the overdue notices in the typewriter. There was also the delight of the multi-volume "Book catalogues."

The next technological experience was the 'token system' and the very radical "photocharging" at Nunawading Library!

And who could forget the ever inkless date-due stamps and the introduction of cash registers (no more tearing off the tickets!)? The card laminating machines were also a great innovation except when they overheated!.

Finally I was introduced to computerised systems - Libs100, Bookplus and Spydus to name just a few. From then on it has progressed in leaps and bounds. I can still remember e-mail being introduced at Camberwell City Libraries and the dilemma I faced at no longer needing to talk to fellow staff directly (hasn't my attitude changed!) Now I have the delight of the recently introduced multi functional colour copiers etc etc at WHMRLC - what bliss!

Technology has certainly changed the library world

- can I keep up!?!?!?!?!?

#6 More flickr fun

Yes it's me!

If only I'd started a blog back then

#5 flickr

I'm impressed!

WOW!

Flickr is a 'site' to see!

I had no idea so much was at my fingertips.

I also had no idea how much time my fingertips are spending uncovering the wonders of this site!

As my eyes begin to Flickr and my head is full of blog, I'll sign off until time allows me back.
