Co-workers Blogs

It is interesting to see what other people have done with their blogs.

Delicious CPL's Best Websites

The Delicious "Best Websites" is totally different from CPL's old "Best Websites". The Delicious website is very busy and a little intimidating when you first look at the site. BUT now that I have had the opportunity to work with this site, it is more manageable. I am definitely more comfortable with the new "Best Websites."
My tip is from the History and Genealogy tag which has bookmark for Intute under the History sub tag. Intute is a great website which lists a variety of subjects including Psychology (another of my favorite subjects). It was through this website that I accessed the BrainBlogger blog which I have mentioned in a previous post on my blog.

I hope to learn about the internet diverse program like YouTube and LibraryThing. Last fall, I took a workshop at Village Square Library about Facebook which was very helpful. My younger co-workers have been very helpful when I needs some help with Facebook.
I am a genealogy addict so I love learning about new (at least new to me) internet options.

Blogs

I have created a blog for the first time. It took less time than I thought it would.
I checked out two blogs
- one blog was created by a former co-worker on Word Press. She writes about the books on her book shelf that she has not read yet and why she has not read them until now.
- the other blog was Brainblogger which is specifically about the brain and the blogs that I read were about a young boy with a brain abnormality and how half of his brain was surgically removed.
