Del.iciou.us, Technorati & LibraryThing

I've finally gotten back to Learning 2.0, where did the last few weeks go, it seems there is never enough hours in the day. It's week 8 and there is so many things to look at and learn, so where to start.

Del.icio.us great name it actually makes me think of food or recipes particularly the sweet type, which is my one weakness. I found this to be a great site for social bookmarking as let's face it how many of us have so many favourites that sometimes it's so hard to find what you're looking for, this way they're all in one location. I have set up my own del.icio.us account and here is the link - http://del.icio.us/grace.angelgirl
I can see great benefit in this as a research tool for the library, it opens up a whole new world in searching.

Technorati - so many blogs, so much to see, not enough time, but interesting what you can get from different searches.

LibraryThing - Great site, this has so much potential, I have found books by certain authors that I haven't read but have made a note to do so. Maybe I'll even get some spare time at home and catalogue our books, just think eventually I'll have my own book catalogue as well as my photos on Flickr, just need to find some spare hours on the weekends. My link to LibraryThing is http://www.librarything.com/catalog/grace.angelgirl

Great to see you back.

This was a very hectic week of things to look at - it sounds like you have a great time.
