don't gripe at the staff for your incompetence and illiteracy!!!!!

please read the sign people! and listen!

people should really respect the staff and don't gripe at us when we give you the information you need. and please, learn how to look for things by yourself!

just deal and don't yell!

ahh, just another day at public library.

now what?

i'm debating what to do with this blog now that i'm finished with the 23 things. i figure i'll go ahead and keep updating, i just don't know what about or when. i do have some ideas.

1.)book reviews- pretty self explanatory. probably a mix of old stuff that i'm reading, series, and new stuff.
2.)website reviews- again, self explanatory. i'm thinking of also starting a delicious account to store a list of links.
3.)random thoughts about being a librarian and libraries in general.
4.)and yes, i will talk about customers. this will include rants and how people can be lazy and don't want to look and are blind. believe me, there's been more than once when a person can't find the book they're looking for and make us find it or can't read signs. you're in a library- READ!!!!!!!!!!

i think that will keep me busy for awhile.

is that all?

i totally don't know if i did all 23 of the 23 things, but that's okay. i at least tried and i'm a little more informed. it's all pretty much a learning experience anyway. there were definately some things i didn't really like or get the point of or even the point of doing other than to know it's there and i probably won't use them anymore. but, i guess it's good to know i tried and have used it if anyone ever asks.

i'm also slightly addicted to ning and flickr sudoku.

well, it's been a great experience and i hope i can use some things for future jobs and in future libraries that i may be in.

#19- google docs

this one was okay. i wasn't truly impressed. not yet anyway. i might be if i play around with it some more. i think it could possibly be a useful too.

#7- rss feed

personally, i still don't get it. it's probably just me. but, i seriously just don't get this one. i think i'll just have to keep learning.

#4- flickr mashups

finally got to the speller! yay! here;s me:








here's the link, too. hope it works. http://metaatem.net/words/courtney

sudoku mashups sound really fun! this would be a great game to play with kids or for those who are just learning how to use the internet and/or computer. matching up pictures would probably be a lot easier than the numbers because it's visual. it also teaches mouse coordination.

#2-learning about 2.0

this was really interesting because i learned a lot about what 2.0 is and i seriously thought evite was 2.0. guess, as hurley said, my theory is wrong.

but, i did get to know better what all 2.0 is and how to use it better.

i could definately see using all these things in a library setting. i like using podcasts for storytimes and interviews. also, blogging would be great because you can talk about different events, books, movies, and more and link to reviews, guides, and more related to your subject.

so far, everything's been pretty fun!
