Week 12 Youtube

Here's the video I chose. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU8DDYz68kM Another day at the water hole. If you like shows about animals, you'll like this.

I've seen this video before, but I didn't have the url for it. I did a search on buffalo and battle and it popped right up. So I like the search capabilities. I also like the related videos feature, although it can get addicting.

As far as using Youtube for the library goes, it might be useful for providing instruction/classes although the video quality isn't that great.

Week 12 flicker


Here's a picture of a dog that looks just like my Choo Choo. It's a Japanese Chin. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bekah/136110532/

Week 11 thoughts

My simple search was "resveratrol and aging" I was impressed with ClusterMed. The clusters allowed me to zero in on topics within the search that I was interested in and/or point me to topics I hadn't thought about before. ReleMed was also useful for quickly finding some relevant articles. I will probably use these tools now and then in my searching.

Week 10 thoughts

I can see how vodcasting might be useful for library patrons. It would be another way to teach a class, for example. Not sure about podcasting, since so much of what we do ideally involves sight as well as sound.
