Week 6: Tagging, Folksonomies & Technorati

#13 Tagging and
Del.icio.us
#14. Explore
Technorati
#15. Read a few perspectives on
Web 2.0, Library 2.0 and the future of libraries

Help, I’ve started tagging and I can’t sop! I started using
Del.icio.us and I am finding it incredibly easy and useful. I am book marking and creating tags on pages I find helpful for a class I’m teaching. Going back I have found that hundreds of people have clicked on my bookmarks and have similar pages of information book marked. This is what web 2.0 is all about, collaboratively sharing information!
I registered a few of my blogs with Technorati and did some blog searches. I found that when searching I came up with a few inappropriate blogs. I would use this tool and then share the blogs with my teachers and students. I wouldn’t have my middle school students use it to search. I enjoyed reading the articles on Library 2.0 and plan to share a few of them at my next library meeting.
