Quest 6 part 2 Technorati

Ok, I am trying this out. When you use the keyword search, you get all blog posts that have either have library or 2.0 in them. This is a bad way to do any search. I never use a keyword because it is too imprecise. Who wants over 31,000 hits. Using the tag search or the blog search is much better. When searching the popular blog search, I found either techies or major news events. Right now Burma (Myanmar) is very popular, but I normally watch CNN or the nightly news for my news. Hey! How about using the regular search to search for "tech trek 2.0"? Guess what I found? You got it. I found us. All of the tech star blogs and postings. Note that I put tech trek 2.0 in quotation marks. This site is neat. Here is the URL:

Quest 6 del.icio.us is delicious

I have been playing with del.icio.us. It is great for bookmarking web addresses. I found some good one for librarians. However, what happened to the 12 minute Del.icio.us tutorial? No active link, need to check all links before publishing them, some come some go. Ok, I see that you put a new link in for the tutorial, but this was covered in the State Library's class that I took. PLCMCL2 was interesting, but make sure you click on the saved by pink link to see the comments and tags. The September 15 edition of Library Journal has an article on del.icio.us. Check out the Nashville Public Library teen wed page at http://www.library.nashville.org/teens/teenweb.asp. They use tag clouds on the teen web page.
My del.icio.us account is http://del.icio.us/Mindwarps_mom .

Trading Card Maker

I did a trading card on Trading Card Maker. I was Pippi Longstocking one Halloween. The patrons voted mine the best costume. So, I added the card to my profile.
