Library Related Blog

So, I found Library Juice. Sounds like good stuff, cutting edge thoughts on librarianship and the issues we face. One entry used the word "Truth." Hmmm, I'm not sure how I feel about using that word. gotta go

RSS

Well, I'm not certain the RSS feeds I selected are what we are aiming at, but I found The World Bank's news feeds interesting. It isn't just news, the RSS feeds contain info about projects sponsored by the WB. I elected to get newsfeeds from African, Latin America and The Middle East and North Africa. Due to time constraints, the only one I read today was the Latin American WB newsfeed. Climate change, the world wide economic crisis, going green, etc. were the topics at hand.

As for news, unlike most members of my family, I usually watch the TV. I can see how much more useful this RSS is for news gathering. I'll have to do some more hunting and find other quality news sites.

PicturePlay

Playing with photographs is so much fun. What a lark. I'm definitely going to use Flickr and a picture editor in the future, though my brother may not think it is so funny, no, he will laugh too. Anyway, this was way fun.
