Finish Line-Task 23

I have learned about functionality of web technology and quicker and deeper ways to use it in my work. I was thoroughly impressed with the RSS feeds and You Tube as a tool to encourage active learning.
I like Podcasting which can be use for library audio tour guides and to introduce a new staff member( the images are much more interesting then welcome e-mail)
I don't see online communication as a substitute for face to face interaction.I hold strong reservation about this idea.
Overall it was a good experience. Thanks for giving an opportunity to gather more knowledg than the average user has, and enhance ability to cope in tomorrow's information world.

Pet on the Blog

Posting picture of my dog brought back a flood of memories from the time when I was young and beautiful .

Google Talk

I like keeping in contact with friends and co-workers, and I like the idea of instant communication, however I am not a big fan of this tool.

Podcasting

"Podcasting is for anyone for any reason.It empowers you with a voice that can literally reach around the world".
C.Deitz
Great facility.You don't need to have an Ipod to enjoy the world of podcasting- you can listen to what you want, when you want, and where you want. You can even create your own podcasts!!
I have subscribed to some podcasts from Aunty ABC and entered BBC radio station

YouTube

YouTube it is a popular destination site for users to find videos as well as share their own ones.

The best thing I like about YouTube is that it is increasingly used by lectures and trainers as an educational tool .

Encore

Another innovative way to find materials in the library catalogue.You can narrow your search by publishing, location, format and more, you can refine your search, you can see items recently added to the collection,and even more.Encore gives sugestions for misspelled terms.I hope we will be able to use this tool to symultaneously search both the catalogue and selected databases in one search.
