Another cat flushing the toilet

Cat flushing toilet

I enjoy funny cat videos and I always get a kick out of cats flushing toilets. I found this on UTube.

Online Photo Sharing

I have uploaded some pictures that I took at the MLA Midwest Chapter Board Meeting on March 7, 2008 in Minneapolis below. I also posted these to Flickr and FaceBook. It took me awhile to figure this out, but I have wanted to learn how to do this for a long time. I just received my first digital camera at Christmas and this has been a great opportunity to learn how to load these pictures onto different sites. I have not yet figured out how to load the pictures from Flickr to other sites, but I can do it from my computer. I am looking forward to taking pictures in the library and loading them onto our various library web sites.

I am going to write this week's blog comments here and then publish them to my blog for the MLA 2.0 class to see how it works. Google Doc type sites are great for working on documents where input from others is needed. For example, I am working on MLA Chapter Planning Guidelines as one of my responsibilities on Chapter Council. Instead of posting the draft document on the Chapter Council web site for people to look at and then have them send comments to me, I could have put this document on Google Doc or a wiki. It would have been easier for them to comment directly on the draft rather than sending me the comments to add in. There are so many of these online web office programs out there to consider. When I have more time, I will look at them.

Del.icio.us Impressions

I can see using Del.icio.us at the Reference Desk to bookmark internet sites that are frequently used. It is easier to read and more pleasant to look at than just bookmarking a list of sites under "favorites". The sharing feature is very attractive though I have not had much time to try that out yet. I am looking forward to experimenting more with it. It certainly has been convenient to
include my blog and wiki sites on Del.icio.us so that I can go right to them.
