Internet Technology

After the last Staff Development day I went into some of the
internet "stuff" mentioned. I nearly made it into "Second Life".
Made it to "Facebook" It is Ok but too time consuming. That's what I find with a lot of this stuff.

Second Life is a 3-D virtual world entirely created by its Residents. Since opening to the public in 2003, it has grown explosively and today is not inhabited by me. secondlife.com/whatis/

Anyway I may bring my player in and try it here in your class.Went through the tutorial and nearly feel asleep. SSNOOOZZZZZE!!!

Podcasts

Listened to them at home. Today, I noticed that Yahoo podcasts will be closed Oct 31, 2007.

Youtube and Children's services

It would be great to put humorous material about children's books, and libraries on a blog or site

Short portions of library programs can be on the site
Storytime
Summer game
Special library entertainers
Authors


Short tours of the library can be put on the site

Feature a dewey decimal area (what do we have)

How to use library resources

and so on and so on.
