Library Elf

I think that Library Elf is an O.K. site, but seems to be of more use to someone who has to keep track of multiple accounts. For example, a parent with children who each have their own cards. Someone who has accounts with multiple Library systems, such as city, county, and school Libraries.

Library Thing

Library Thing is an interesting site. Once I learned to navigate around the site it was easy to use. I even managed to get five books into my catalog. I like the simple sign up for the site.

The calendar making program in fd's Flikr Toys was easy to use. If some one wanted to, they could use the site to make their own personalized calendar for the entire year. Here is the link to fd's Flikr Toys http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/ and the calendar making http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/calendar.php# for the ihcpl lesson on image generators.

This is for the ihcpl training program and I used the Billboard making program for this image. There are several background choices. I linked the picture to my flickr account to blog it.

Feeds using Bloglines

I joined Bloglines for the ihcpl program. I haven't figured out how to post the feeds from Bloglines to Blogspot yet. Bloglines does have a lot of feed categories to choose from. Some of the stories are quite interesting. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/topstories/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071006/ap_on_fe_st/odd_unstuck_skunk is a link to one of the stories I recieved as a feed in my Bloglines account. It's about a skunk that had its head stuck in a jar. I discovered that YouTube is a filtered site and can't be joined from a library computer.

I used Picnik to edit this photo. It was a lot of fun. The time it took to sign up was worth it. This is for the ihcpl training program.

Spell with flickr: Halloween

Spell with flickr: Halloween: "On Flickr "
The letters of "Halloween" look different each time you look at it on the "Spell with flickr" site. If you click on the letters they change too.
