Finally

I just think in conclusion that the technology involved could be a bit advanced for me at present.
Anyway thanks for all the help and I am sure that in future I wil at least be able to understand what these digital natives are speaking about and maybe even able to help them

Conclusion

I have tried to do some of the exercises but i really still don't feel much of these things have much relevance to me at the moment exception would be the Wikis, Soho the word processing option and the Rss feedsb but anyway that's how things stand at the present

podcasts

Checked slv podcast and have attempted an Rss feed

embedding

Embedding No 15 I have had a go at embedding a video from You tube on to my blog but without much success so far.

About technology

To be quite frank i don't feel that much of this technology will be that helpful in what i do at the moment in the library, perhaps, in future, i will be able to fathom it.But at the moment e mail and the mouse will do me .I just can,t see the point of much of this in our jobs . I am speaking, of course, as a ' digital immigrant' just of the boat, so to speak, definitely, not a 'native'.

flika

An ineresting site i am working my way around how to use it. Can you use normal pictures or do they have to digital ? I suppose i will find this out as i read more
Can any pics be loaded through Flika on to the Nla site?

tagging

To be quite frank i find this idea of limited value maybe in the near future this concept will be of some use in libraries and for reference work but at the moment i don't really see its relevance

another borzoi story

I always used to take the three dogs for a walk every morning before work. A few days before Christmas two or three years ago i returned to my house and found one of the 'beasts, was missing.
Where is he? i am late for work( as usual) .
As i looked down the street i saw my lovely Greek neighboughs car was open She was unloading her Christmas shopping, mainly food for the family dinner, as she was leaving for Greece the next day.
To my horror i saw the 'missing' dog ( a 52 kilo borzoi) in the back of her open hatcback, flat out eating the' shopping' ham, chicken , plum pudding everything edible.
I tried to stop him and offered to pay.
The poor women simply said ' I have to go to Greece tommorow, i suppose i will have to do it all again.
Geeze I am sorry but what could i do .
Meanwhile the dog kept eating.

rss feeds

still hav,nt received my feeds perhaps i did something incorrect anyway i wait with anticipation and will go onto the next item
kent

rss

Just checked this service and subscribe to google reader seems a great service can't wait to get my continuous news updates being a bit of a news and gossip junkie.
I have just tried to get an Rss feed from a borzoi puppy site i hope to receive it soon.

borzoi stories

Due to an unexpected demand i will soon be posting a few more borzoi and other dog stories
I hope that they are not too horrifying or unbelievable. Looking back at all the dogs i have had in my life and the great times i have spent with them it will be a pleasure for me to look back.

wikis

This is just a fewe words on wikis.
I think they have some applications in our library and the means of publishing is great but i still think at the moment the whole concept needs to be tested further

More stories

The story about why the dogs where barred is just one on many I think I may write a book. It would make the life story of Atilla the Hun look tame

See you Kent

my first post

This blog will probably amuse or even upset some. It will detail some of the stories about my borzoi's . How did they get banned from visiting the Gold Coast? What happened when they escaped in Windsor- South Yarra and attacked a CIB Detective. These are just a few...
