Wikis: Friend or Foe?

Wikis are a bit of a strange subject for me. When i was doing the Library Tech's Course, they told us not to use wikis as a source of information as anyone can go on and add anything they like about any subject. For example, i could go on and say that i am a scientist and i've just discovered that there are 20 planets in the solar system and make up some names for them. What if a student copies that into an assignment? On the other hand you can access up to date information without having to wait for the next edition of Britannica to be published. Hmm, very difficult to decide. Friend or Foe?

Technorati

Had a look at it, but i don't really want to put my blog on there for everyone to find! Lets make it really difficult if they want to look at it! Haha. It's a bit like hide and seek....

Rollyo & Library Thing

Well, I made a Rollyo gadget(?) if that's what you call them. Haven't had time to try searching on it yet, but it's there! Library Thing was a bit of fun, will have to go back later on and add some more books to my page. I know i'm not really doing these in order, but hey, i figure as long as i'm getting them done sometime then yay me! Haha. The only problem with Library Thing is that i can't remember all the books that i have and what i've read!

del.icio.us hey?!

Well i've been exploring this del.icio.us bookmarking website and it's pretty cool really. You can find out which of the websites are favourites to how many people. Though while i was looking at the one that learning 2.0 set up(PLCMCL2), i was flicking through the bookmarks they have on there and it may just be me but i found the cartoon bookmark very strange..... as i said it may just be me but the "humor" was just a bit dark for my liking. Too much blood and swearing and what they were talking about wasn't funny. But hey, may just be me and my "weird" sense of humor...

Image Generators... Go Crazy!

So image generators seem like a bit of fun! i was making my very own m&m, my little pony and various other amusing pictures. Will definately be coming back for more fun time later on! Haha.

Bloglines???

Well, seem to be having a bit of trouble with this one. It won't let me choose which ones i want to subscribe to at the moment. I'll try again later. Hopefully with better luck next time (or maybe more enthusiasm and less tiredness...)

Flickr...too easy...haha

So i've managed to make a flickr account!!! Yay me! Haha. That was easier than registering my blog. Stupid thing wouldn't let me in, got there eventually though as you can see. The hardest bit about flickr was deciding what pictures i was going to put in there. Bring on next weeks task...
