Feeling Like a Twit

After creating a Twitter account, I have to be honest that this is not for me. I am really uncomfortable with the idea of posting the minutae of my life. I just don't think it's that interesting. I do understand how it could be useful for libraries and other entities for marketing and getting the word out. Yet, I am so awash in logins, passwords, messages, posts, etc. it is difficult for me to coordinate these social networking tools. Perhaps I am missing something???

RSS Redo

Just got back from a few days off, and realized that I forgot to publish my blog entry of my RSS experience! I just perused my Google Reader feeds and found it very interesting reading once it was all together. Some were just so boring or duplicated elsewhere that I unsubscribed. Nevertheless, I really enjoy this application. Now onto social bookmarking.

RSS Feeds Me

Last summer I subscribed to some RSS feeds on my iGoogle page. I love them, and they keep me up-to-date all in one place everytime I'm on the internet. On my iGoogle page, I get news from NPR, CNN, and Daily Beast. For library news, I am a big fan of EarlyWord and ilibrarian that keep informed about collection development, reader's advisory, and technology. I recently added ALA's feed.



For this 23 Things Kansas, I added more feeds on Google Reader. I mostly added recommended librarian blogs and international news.
