Thing 5

March 21, 2008

I am only on my 5th "project" and find I am disliking this whole experience with more and more vigor the deeper I get into it. Perhaps I have mentioned that I have no experience with the land of 2.0 and so explicit instructions for each 'thing' would make my day. Unfortunately, I feel I spend a lot of time fumbling around trying to figure things out that I would really rather give up on. End of rant.

Thing 5 is, again, interesting on some level. There is useful stuff here for the web-savy. A creative library page could definitely benefit from these different applications.

Thing 4

March 14, 2008

Well, I found some really interesting pictures and posted my favorite. Can't go wrong with the Eiffel Tower. I realize the image is huge and maybe I can figure out a way to resize so it fits better on my page. I would like to have it higher on the page so it is seen right away when page is opened. Something to work on.

The use of Flikr for library related use is intriguing. I think it would be great to do something like the Clemens and Alcuin libraries and make the catalog a little more interactive. I am still unfamiliar enough with Flikr that the thought of taking on something to that scale, makes my head hurt. Getting my one picture was painful enough - it is a great picture though, so well worth it!
