Hi everyone,
This is the first time that I had looked at LibraryThing. I think it is a lot of fun and a great way to talk about books. I uploaded my LibraryThing library to my profile, these are some of my favorite books! I found it easy to use and the blog was interesting!

RSS Feeds
Here's my Feed that I created...http://www.bloglines.com/public/Jaime-blog
I have used RSS feeds a lot for my classes. Instead of getting an email everyday I subscribe to the feeds. It is more convenient to have all of the information in one place and it also keeps my email from piling up. Another benefit to RSS feeds is there is not this long, drawn out process in order to unsubscribe, you just delete it!
I think it could be used in the library by the library simply having a feed that would be available to patrons that has information about upcoming programs, staff recommends, or info about our databases.
Two great feeds that have to do with libraries that have some great ideas are "The Shifted Librarian" and "YPulse".

MySpace
Here's the MySpace page of one of my favorite bands...http://www.myspace.com/davematthewsband.
I like MySpace! I know that sometimes these social networking sites get a lot of bad press, but I have a MySpace page and it has allowed me to find a lot of friends from high school and college that I had lost touch with! It is entertaining and because I have a MySpace page I understand why teens enjoy it so much, it is fun to be creative and create your own space that reflects who you are!
