Blogs


Welcome to the next generation of news and content sharing... RSS. When I first suscribet to a RSS feed I discovered that having to go o different websites to check the news was obsolete. With RSS feeds I can choose the type of new I'm interested on. Even better is the capability that this technology has of creating summaries of the headlines. It's like a custom newspaper where I can choose what to read, and whose information I read. Simply extraordinary.

Social Bookmarking


Social Bookmarking is the best search and share websites without using the famous search engines. I found del.icio.us particularly interesting, because you have all your tags on the side and is really easy to arrange the different tags that can be created. Moreover, the option of cloud view looks really nice. :)

The concept of Library 2.0 is a very powerfl tool that can be used effectively in every modern library. I am excited to be part of this new project where people share their blogs and ideas. I will be looking forward to see how we develop this technology in the library.
