What's The Buzz

The Library's Learning 2.0 is in full swing. Yesterday, in addition to learning about and using RSS feeds, we were instructed to create an account (Bloglines or Google Reader)and explore/subscribe to several news feeds. I already have an account with Google and personally find it much easier to use (I've tried Bloglines too) as you don't have to cut and paste the url into the reader window - it's done automatically for you. I searched several of the discovery exercise sites - Feedster and Technorati but found myself in information overload. Entirely too much stuff to sort through. I felt like the alter ego to #5 Alive (from the 1986 movie Short Circuit) who was always stating "need more input." But I'll give it another chance when I have more time. I did, however, subscribe to the library department blog VBPL Talks as well as a couple of new local news feeds.
