Thing #9-

I read all of the information in Thing #9 but didn't get to post until a few weeks later. So, I had to "re-read" & experience it ALL over again.

My thoughts on Newsreaders.
I liked the "Cool Cat Teacher" because the topics relate to what I do with the library. The site is very current and visited frequently by many people. The points on "Creating your circle of the wise" had some helpful information-look for responsible conversationalist learners. Also, not being so over whelmed with all of the information to read but read "snippits" during the day when you have a few minutes.

I couldn't get the Feedster link to work. I was amazed at how involved Springbranch ISD is with their blogs (366 to be exact). Google Blog Search is very easy to use.

Technorati had so many different feeds to look at but the site was very organized and easy to navigate. I found the news interesting to read. It was a lot more detailed than another site which I have used in the past. Topix has the latest news also. I like this site better.
I found an advertisement of about Webinar 2.0 that I might pursue.

I set up several blogs to read but have forgotten to read Google Reader. Tonight I looked at it and wow, do I have a lot to read. Finally, I opened up Edublogs' award winners and found Vaughn had won the award for librarians and had also blogged about the same library conference that I attended. Her comments about the sessions that she attended were informational because I didn't get to the same sessions.
