Week***7 # 17 About technology
I guess without knowing we all enjoy the new technology every day. Before we didn't have Blogs and I never thought I will have one, but the day came... and now I can say, it was very useful because we learned many new things and nothing could happened without a "computer".

Library 2.0 simply make our library space (virtual and physical) more interactive, collaborative.
Week***6 # 14 Technorati
Today I opened my account at Technorati.com.Technorati is a Page Rank 8 website and is one of the most influential Web 2.0 sites. Once I open an account with them it was very important to claim my blog also. In order to do that, Technorati requires that you put the URL of this blog and also that you insert a small HTML code on the post itself that links to your Technorati.

week***6 # 13 del.icio.us
del.icio.us is a social bookmarking website, which means it is designed to allow me to store and share bookmarks on the web. This has several advantages.
First,I can get to my bookmarks from anywhere, no matter whether I am at home, at work, in a library, or on a friend's computer.
Second,I can share my bookmarks to publicly(but i'm still thinking about that), so my friends, coworkers, and other people can view them for reference, amusement, collaboration, or anything else.
Third,I can find other people on del.icio.us who have interesting bookmarks and add their links to my own collection. Everyone on del.icio.us chooses to save their bookmarks for a reason.I have access to the links that everyone wants to remember.I can see whether two people have chosen to remember a link, or whether it was useful enough for a thousand people to remember -- which may help me find things that are useful for me, too.

Week***5 # 12 Library Elf
It's a service that offers me email alerts and even an RSS feed when my reserved library books are ready for me, and reminders when the books I have are due back; it tells me if I have fines.
Library ELF is great for families or anyone else who would like reminders before an item is due.

Week***5 # 11 Library Thing
I've been quite happy to spend time cataloguing my own books with the help of Library Thing. It is handy since you can enter just the ISBN or title or author and it will find anything that matches in one of a large selection of sources. I know that my tastes are somewhat idiosyncratic, but I was still a bit surprised at how few people have some of my favorites.

Week***4 # 9 Finding Feeds
Bloglines let you create a custom blog (hosted on Bloglines) to store and share your clippings and favorites. Today I subscribe for few more feeds and now will be easy to find what I want, very fast. I already have around 15 feeds and this is just the beginning. I create a Bloglines link on my blog and when I want to see my favorite website just click on and this is it...
