Wow....I completed all....

It is a wonderful journey and I am glad that I complete all the 23rd lessons!!!
I hope I didn't miss any for the instruction is confussing!
Well, I enjoy doing it. I suggest that 1 exercise per week will be enough!
I try a few new things, uploading pictures and videos.
My feeling....
Excited, interesting, enjoyable...
Anyway
A very good experience for me and helpful since I conduct a lot of computer classes in our library.
Do I have fun? YES ... I... DO

EBOOK

I went into Project Gutenburg and found out that there are Chinese EBooks! Although most of them are very classic titles, but very interesting. I can read online or download into my computer through the link from mainsite, mirror site and P2P. However, I do not want to download things to my computer. It is still useful for me to read on line especially those Classic Chinese Books that cannot be bought easily. It is excited.
So I put a link here
http://www.gutenberg.org

Podcast

It is very time consuming. Although it is very interesting, I really would like to learn more on creating my own podcast. I tried to go to yahoo and publish a podcast but I cannot get into it. May be try next time. A feed on podcast library book search was put into my bloglines. Very useful if I have time to listen and use it.
Anyway, a new adventure for me!!!

Web 2.0 tools

Well, I enjoy using those tools. The one I found very useful and I had not use before is " Del.icio.uz" and it is very useful to me. The others like Google Doc is very helpful to me. Also I use a lot Picasa for editing my picture, creating web albums to share with my friends. Google earth and Google map are useful too. Recently I used Flickr to search photos and I found a lot of good photos. I use facebook as a social networking and found a lot of old friends there. Since I am not a music friend so I seldom use those music tools.

Library 2.o

I found the article "To a temporary place in time" very interesting!
What I agreed most is that the write stated that Libraries are not just collections of documents and books, but are communities. Yes, we are part of the communities.
It is exciting to see that the development to Library 4.0
I am still in the situation of library 1.0, learning 2.0, I want to see Library develops to 3.0. In the future, library will be something that people can escape from the environment and fall into a dream of digital knowledge space. Is it good or bad? I cannot comment! But it will be the fact!

Google Doc

I had been using Google Doc for a while. We put our church service power point, programme up to the Online Google and so every member can go on line and have a look. I also use Picsa Web Album to share photos too. It is very exciting. Below I post some photos, a video and a powerpoint presentation that I uploaded to Google Doc.
Besides, I also use the Google Apps to build a website for our Church to share all the news!

It is so wonderful!
If I have time, I may try zoho writer, but not now....
Toooooo buuuusy....

Bebo, Face Book

I had been sick for 3 weeks and have no energy to do my blog...now I am better.....

Well, it is excited to visit Auckland City libraries Bebo, it is so lively and it is very attractive to young people. It is a good media to contact the young people and let them see that libraries are changing. I have added myself as a friend.

I have used face book for a while and you can easily find me using company search "Howick Library". It is a way I contact my young friends. I try to look up friends from my high school, unfortunately, I cannot find any! Maybe my age is too old for that. Most my high schoolmates will not do stuff like this. Well what a pity!! I really want to find friends. Maybe I will try to search again. I find a few people working in the libraries in New Zealand and add them as friends. I hope I didn't scare them!!

a video from myspace

Well, I visit my space, and find a video! I am not very fond of those bands and music. However, it is good experience to learn something new!!

Check out this video: Baby Techno Dancer

"Lords Prayer"

Youtube experience

Well I have done a few exercise these two days because I am not at work!
Youtube and Google video are not new to me!
I really enjoy watching those videos and sometime it is very interesting! For e.g., I post a video of a 2 years old singing the "Lords Prayer" it is so wonderful and amazing!
These videos bring the world together and within minutes, people can experience what's happening somewhere in the world.
40 years ago, when earthquake hit Tong Shan (China), no body knew what happened, and no one knew how many victims. Comparing with the recent earthquake in Sze Tsuen, within hours, all the world receive images of the disaster.
That's the power of YouTube and others....
Still, I am not crazy about it, and I would not spend hours viewing those programmes.
Time to stop...
No more computer today....

Botany Church Service Power Point

I went to Google Account and uploaded our church power point onto it and published.
Now I would like to share with you this wonderful power point and hope you'll enjoy it!
Don't worry if you see something funny because it is in Chinese!!!

My experience in Delicious

Wow!
What an experience!
I really enjoy exploring Delicious, and I signed up and bookmarked a few links!
It is very useful for me. I always saved some webs in my computer, but my husband likes to keep the computer tidy, and he likes to delete my favourite!
Now by using the Delicious, I can save my own favourite. Also it will be good to share with my friend.
Also, since I will be conducting a computer class for the home tutor regarding searching ESOL webs, and :Delicious will be a very good web for them, and they can share their on-line resource.
Therefore I consider that this exercise very useful to me!
However, I cannot create a tag cloud from my bookmarks in Delicious!
Will anyone able to help me?
Thanks!

My Technorati favourate

Well, I spend some time to link my favourates in the technorati to my blog. Actually I would like to display the favourate in tags. However I still cannot do it!
May be later!

Favourate Chinese Food on pbwiki

I have put on Favourate Chinese Food on the pbwiki!


I found it very useful and fun!
I will probably create a Wiki of my own!
HA>>>>>
Want to have some ideas of Chinese Food, please click on the following link!
https://manukaulearn.pbwiki.com/Favourate-ChineseFood

This part is not difficult and I enjoy doing it!

Wiki-anni

Well, using 50 words each post is very hard for me. I wiki this week, and I found it very interesting and the most interesting thing is that I can development a "WIKI-ANNI" to form a bible study community. Anyway, I will try to do it sometime!!!
About the list Wiki, I like the SJCPL Subject Guides, for it is very comprehensive, well design, instruction clear. Also very easy to navigate to find the subject you are interested in. If you do not believe me, use the link and have a look!
However, this Wiki is very "American" orientated and some topics are not relevant to us. I hope we will have something similar!
