4 Down, 4 To Go


Finally finished the first 4 8N08 exercises...I think the last one actually counts for 2 to 3 on its own. So I did some searching in Rollyo. Might be useful for searching children's crafts since there are some searchrolls already created. Started my own searchroll but very slow computer wouldn't let me import my bookmarks.
Then went onto Pandora and started my own station seeded with Train.
Explored many pages on webjunction...lots of stuff to explore when there is time. I added a few readers advisory pages to my bookmarks and last, but not least, created this image at imagegeneratorblog. Also discovered at this site, a talk like a pirate translator which will be helpful for International Talk Like a Pirate Day (September 19). Arrggh!

Exercise 3 of 8N08

I finished the third exercise: reading about and using tags. After reading the Library Journal article and exploring aadl.org, del.icio.us, and librarything.com, I now know how to tag and look at tag clouds. I added the tag "humor" to some children's books on amazon.com, including Imogene's Antlers. I also added the tags "tagging", "8N08" and "flickr" to my blog posts.
