Information Search - ideas and debate

I think the above blog site is pretty cool. Because, the blog owner seems very knowledgeable about technology and libraries. I found it beneficial for me to read his articles.

To me this part of assignment was not easy. I spent a good chunk of time doing this assignment.

Blogging is very easy way of posting information and communicating with others. I am very impressed.

It seems old hat to me but if you have not tried the shifted librarian by jenny levine, this may be a useful blog.

Sometimes I feel that bloggers get lost in their little worlds of feeling more important than they are when they do give their names as authors of the content.

I found that most blogs do not have named authors; I have a problem with that.

Fine, stay in your little world hiding behind secret postings but I expect a name to at least give the appearance of legitimacy.

More on blogger, i guess.

Heck--I can't keep my blasted accounts straight. This is an account from a previous 23 Things I did last summer. Sigh. That's what drives me crazy about these social networking tools. Too many different sites and logins.
