Thing 13 Discover Delicious

I think this could be quite useful - might help me consolidate the many bookmarks I have on the several computers I use!!

I have created an account and when I have the time might set about getting my bookmarks in order

Thing 12 - LibraryThing

As an avid reader I was interested in this and can see some uses for me in keeping track of what I have read and what I would like to read - not sure about library use though.

Being able to see other readers with similar reading tastes and see what they are reading was of interest to me - overall liked this thing

Thing 11 Image Generators

I can see that this is a tool that one could have lots of fun with and no doubt waste lots of time - so much stuff available to use - despite filters - I found Smilebox and decided to use a whole lot of photos I had on a USB to see what it looked like - very easy to use. Could be useful for various presentations etc - http://www.smilebox.com/

Thing 10 - Editing a Wiki

Have had a quick tour of the Chisholm Wiki and made a few additions - really easy to do so makes you aware of how user friendly it appears to be - not sure about creating one tho - havent really had time to look and see what is involved in that. I can see that wikis could be a really productive tool for us to use

Thing 9 - Wikis

So long since I have had time to do anything that I have forgotten bits and pieces. I certainly can see uses for Wikis in our library setting and hopefully as a result of this we may get a wiki or two going!! A good idea for the the weekly diary I would have thought as a start.

On to Thing 10....
