The LibraryThing - catalogue of favourites - Task 12


LibraryThing is a site I have ventured into before and started to create a catalogue of my favourite titles. Although I have only started there are a number of really good reads. The featured Accidental Woman by Delinsky has suspense, some romance (not a full on Delinsky romance) and a good read for those that like intrigue especially with a female context weaved within. Most of the titles I have listed so far can be termed suspense with intrigue and good story lines. Anyone who hasn't read a Robert Goddard should give a couple of his a go. Each is different and appeals to people in various ways. Always keeping you wondering. I will continue to add selected titles, some of which will be non-fiction must reads in my opinion.
This site is a good way to learn of other titles and authors which may suit your individual tastes and open up new adventures.

Put yourselves in the picture and imagine your favourite pastimes and passions. Let your imagination fly!

A good time spent playing and many options to change icons and cursors as well as creating your own logos, etc. Very good for business and also to add colour and variety to your own personal documentation, letters, emails, etc.

Tasks 8 & 9 - Bloglines address for Libris




Hi everyone. Join me in bloglines at this address:
http://www.bloglines.com/public/jbaker
and look at the news feeds that I have set up. I think the RSS is one of the options best suited for me as long as I don't commit to too many blogline subs. I am always frustrated with all the info I want to view and because of time I end up not bothering to view anything.

I have feeds to some great links including the Bloglines Top links, a couple of doggy feeds ( ofcourse) and also Jon Faine at the ABC. This latter feed will give me the thrill of the latest political gos as it is stripped apart and analysed for us plebs.

Week 3, Task 6 Completed!!

Hooray, This is done. Have enjoyed flickr and could get really hooked on the mashups. From a technology point of view the various options present an enhancement to the standard portal ideas used by many organisations. It is another aspect for libraries, for instance, to explore how they can present themselves to their growing public. An exciting area for exploration given the expertise and time allocation to do this with panache.

Tropical Passion

This says it all! A dream and passion for everyone.

Only to be shared with someone special - no hangers on!

See yourself there.
