#23 The End Or Is It?

I have really enjoyed the Learning 2.0 exercises, I would not have gone to half of the sites if it was not for this program and like most people I don't get the time to look until someone tells you about it. I am going to keep looking at the other 43 thing list at http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FWE/is_2_10/ai_n16133338 because it is a great chance to look at things we normally would not.
This said, I still do not understand the need to put your personal thoughts out there for everyone to read especially personal photos. I know most people like this form of personal advertisement, but I worry about who has access to it and what people can do with some of the information.
I sent my blog details to a few friends and asked them a series of question. The questions were what their thoughts on the blog were, the sites listed on my blog and would they do the same thing. The answer I got back from friends who are a similar age to me was that they did like to put personal information especially photos into the public arena. They all agreed that some of the links were great, but the amazing thing was that they all liked the same links ie: flicker, you tube,library thing and the generators.
Anyway it was a great opportunity and although a little frustrating at times, it was very productive especially when you look at some of the great blogs out there done by some very talented people.

# 21 Podcast

http://astore.amazon.com/childrensbookradio-20/102-9113947-93657
I can see a real use for podcast, I know that sometimes when I go out walking, I love to listen to something other than music. I also find it great when going for long drives with the kids, they can listen to a book instead of music when they want a change. I can see a use for this in all libraries.

# 22 Audiobooks

http://www.ebooks.com/

I can see a great use for ebooks, I like listening to them when I go for walks with the dog, just load them onto an Mp3 player and off you go. I don't think they could ever replace the library. Nothing is better than walking into a library and borrowing books to read. Anyway try the link it is a good site and you can find some good books at this site.

# 19 Discovering Web 2.0 Tools

http://www.go2web20.net/

This is a great site to explore, I had a sticky beak at the real estate site, Zillow which gave me a look the house they used to film Happy Days, and then went on to give me the approx value of the properties around it. You could even look at the house used for Bewitched (the original) and other so called famous people or shows. Then when that got boring I decided to get back to it and I got side tracked again looking at different things. As it is getting late I have decided to go to http://www.librarything.com/it is a great site and I can see a great use for it in the library, book clubs or just anyone that loves books. Please also check out the link above it has something for everyone.

# 18 Online Applications & Tools

I did it, I opened my Zoho account and uploaded a craft sheet that kids love to do. Just paint their feet and place on either side of the sheet or change the words to hands and paint their hands. You can also paint their feet/hands with craft glue and sprinkle glitter and then laminate, makes a great page for calenders or gifts for friends and family. I can see other uses for this site, well worth checking out.
