I finally managed to find a podcast that I could see an RSS feed for. I had found individual podcasts that I liked but didn't easily see RSS feeds - I don't think the individual ones had one - I would have needed to get to the master series from which the podcast came. Anyhow I finally found one and put it into Bloglines successfully.
One of the problems I found that occurred very frequently when I was trying to access some music podcasts was getting the message "Windows Media Player can't find file" - I was trying to access quite a few videos by a musician Gillian Welch. Many of them came up with MP3, so does that mean I needed to download it first onto an MP3 player to listen to it????
Hoping someone in the group will make a comment although it is probably too late in the day - I guess everyone else has probably finished 23 Things by now!!!

Yeah!! About 2 weeks ago I found a marvellous video from David Attenborough on snow leopards in the Karakoram, but in almost illegible writing at the bottom of the screen there seemed to be the words All Rights Reserved (of course there would be!) so this didn't look like a good choice for my blog. I then found some wonderful videos of a musician I liked but had trouble playing some of them because was going to be required to use Real Player which at one point required a credit card + I didn't know if we were allowed to download that program + thought that uploading her performance would probably be breaking copyright. So I just searched using term
copyright free
and came up with this really interesting little interview with a writer whose book I would now like to read!

My blog is on Technorati.

I just checked the Pennsylvania Uni's tagging site PennTags at http://tags.library.upenn.edu/ which rates a mention in the ACRL blog and even though I think the idea of social tagging for work groups sounds like a great idea I'm not overly impressed with the content of what they have. In theory it sounds great, but like everything it depends on the quality of the information. I don't want yet another source of information to wade through unless it is really good. Yes, tagging does give one a chance to be selective in who one follows the trail of, and I can see that it would be worth our while trying something like this in various groups in our library at ECU. Could be handy for various projects teams.

I listened to the sirsi website talk on social tagging which I thought was a useful introduction. Maybe out of this will come the usefulness of our library consistent tags. This speaker used the example of someone wanting to follow leads on films and how they would need to follow the tags for movies, film, cinema.

I'm now really far behind!! Did lots of work on Week 7 in Week 7 but didn't get round to the last bit and the making comments and am now two weeks behind! I think it would be good for staff next semester to have a bit more time to do the entire exercise. I found I just had to drop doing work on the project if a major priority came up and this might mean being part way through the activities for that week which then meant having to spend quite a lot of time doing a recap, in fact lots of time!
