My favorite Library Technology

Well, in the OCLS website my favorite section is the Virtual Libary because we can learn any language we want through our website and Rossetta Stone. I also like the Library Databases beacuse there is even one about Car parts and repairs.

About the 2.0 technologies for this week I kinda liked Wikimapia but, it doesn't have all the countries and when I decided to check out Egypt everything was in arabic, so I didn't even know what I was looking at. Anyway on Learn 2.0 Map of the World we found OCLS, it was interesting to see that we are not the only library learning 2.0

This week's course...

I could't believe that OCLS had videos at YouTube. They are cool. I think more teens should see them so they can see how some of the teen programs, involving gaming@ocls, really are. Today I didn't share the program with anyone but I still had fun. And I absolutely loved the 2.0 video. So many people take the Internet for granted and the Internet is not all for bad purposes. We are the ones who decide what is published there and there is so much useful information accesible to us.... We should be grateful the Internet is available to anyone in these days, because it wasn't before. (It was used only for goverment communication purposes during the Cold War). But as for everything, we should also be careful in how we use it.

I absolutely liked Grokker!! I love how the links are organized so you can focus on what is more important to you, instead of having to read through a million links. But, you also have the option of having the links on your right hand side. COOL!

For my RSS feed reader I chose Teen Tech Live, Southwest Branch's Blog and the Library Leader, all from OCLS.info. Some of the other ones I chose was Techdirt, CNN news, iTunes, MTV News and Quotes of the Day.
