I have no idea what I did or why I did it in this website. I have so many log-in Usernames & Passwords to all the sites we've visited during Project Play; guess I should have written all them down somewhere.

I wrote about dark chocolate....I wonder if Gusty Spence dreamed about dark chocolate when he was in prison. Probably, more like a Guinness.

Wikipedia-Gusty Spence

Here is what I found on Wikipedia regarding my blog:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gusty_Spence

You'll see that even I went to a wiki to get material on Gusty Spence! Now, is that infringement of copyright? Or, did I plagiarize?

Project Play 8 - addendum

The population of libraries will increase exponentially with delicious.net, Library Thing, blogging, RSS feeds - well, the whole Web 2.0 concept. I can see where a virtual library can be created with postings just on Gusty Spence. It's like sub-Internet reality. My problem is that I still recall my Reference instructor in Library School giving us the tolls for evaluating sources. I am not confident that many postings are reliable, authoritative, timely, purpose, content, etc. Wikis disturb me....they look official, but I am hesitant to use them when answering reference questions.

The paragraph:

If you’d like to add tags (aka labels) to posts you’ve already written, it’s easy to do that, too:1. After you’ve logged into Blogger, click “Posts” to manage your posts.2. Click “Edit” next to any post you want to add labels to.3. Add your labels.4. Click “Publish Posts”Not so bad, right?

was confusing. I logged into blogger and didn't see where I could click on "Posts". I think it's actually "Posting."

Tags or Labels for Gusty Spence

I understand that I can use delicious.net to keep track of my postings.

Library Thing - Suggester

I would look at the book, One Voice by Christy Moore. He is undoubtedly the best songwriter in Ireland with lyrics that depict the struggles between North & South.

Library Thing-Strengths & Weaknesses

I doubt I will use LibraryThing as I don't understand, yet, the way in which it would impact my job. I know that customers post reviews on amazon.com; however, I still rely on the review journals or even a quick peek at the pages inside the book.

Because it is used by library professionals and regarded highly in the field, I'm sure I will find it useful once I become more familiar and comfortable with Web 2.0.

Library Thing

I have created a Library Thing account which will list books on Irish politics and history.
