Wrapping Up




















Finally!!! It was long and enjoyable tour?
I have found out many interesting and useful tools that I was not aware of.
I am not keen on meeting strangers online but I think the idea of being connected to the ones who has common interest is great concept.
Especially with teenagers, it can be difficult to interact with them comfortably.
But if we do share and 'connect' through social networks, it might help you to understand certain groups (eg Teenagers) and help you when you approach or interact with them.

Mashups








































I really enjoy looking at photos and playing around with them.
It was fun editing and testing different effects included in Big Hun Labs.

Yahoo Question board & Podcast

As I have mentioned before, I do work in a Children's & Youth dept of busy library.
I think it is both convenient and exciting having the Yahoo Questions board.
Posting a topic that you are interested in or something that you are curious about...
having a reliable response.
Oh in the yahoo, I have posted a question about the origin and concept of Childhood since I am writing an essay about it, I have been doing research myself.
I am curious to compare the results.

The course that I study has small proportion of lecture through Podcast. It is so much more convenient since you can access it and listen to it at your convenience.
You can also listen to it again... etc.

It was just great!

Del.icio.us and LibraryThing



I think they are both very useful and saves a lot of time.
and by looking at number of people engaged with the site, you know how reliable some
websites are.
And I also like the idea having the website as an image next to the name of the site.
it is like having a picture of book cover on the web catalogue.
