Library Feeds
Have spent time trolling through websites looking at their layout and exploring feeds and I have added Brisbane Weather and digg.com to my Google reader. I've looked at Library feeds sites and found a variety of material there ranging from ads for services to libraries, news items both informative and trivial and libraries discussing changing technology in libraries. I don't feel the need to read peoples blogs possibly because many take themselves so seriously. The quote from explodedlibrary.com "Maybe this is egotistical, but I feel that when I am blogging, I am creating something unique which wouldn’t be there but for my work ... I can imagine a world where my twitter account is my primary window onto the world, so long as I have a blog or something like it to supplement that. ... As much as blogging and tweeting are great ways of sharing information, it's hard to beat face to face. I've just returned from the ALLA/NZLAA conference in Melbourne, and from conversations at this conference, I found an answer to one of the questions I asked in this post" Feeds are an excellent avenue for sharing information but it is all the trivia and inconsequential piffle which takes a lot of time to scroll through which I find time consuming and annoying.
