Mouse Watch Week 6 Librarything

This will be short - bad mood - forgot to save previous entry - now typing it over again. Here's link to my librarything http://www.librarything.com/catalog/LiesW which I loved very much except that I don't have time for it. When I get really really old and have more time I might come back to Librarything to explore - check out books that others with similar entries have been reading. No, next time I'm looking for a book I'll probably search around on Librarything IF I can remember my darn pw and name.

MOUSE watch - they're gone, all of them, I guess they were just 'passing through', sort of like the birds.

Still Week 5 del.ici.ous.

I'm still not liking it - is it because I'm rushing, too busy? Confession - of the 10 thingys you asked for, I copied 9 from others - is that allowed - I went to step 4 before step 3 - can I still win a prize? Only one of the bookmarks is my own (Nathanial Dett Chorale). BTW there are way too many steps in RULA2.0 this week. Also, although I thought I'd installed bookmarklets I don't seem to be using them, because every time I add a bookmark an annoying box appears telling me I could do this better using delicious bookmarks.

I'll admit I'm a little bothered by the lack of authority control - what else would you expect from a cataloguer? When I get time I'll check out University of Pennsylvania's Penntags but until then I'm of the opinion that using social bookmarking in libraries would not be a great idea - I can't see how things would not get 'out of control' but maybe that's my problem. Also, would I still have a job?

Week 5 of RULA d.el.ici.ou.s

My experience so far with delicious - YUK! First of all I don't use bookmarks in real books (I'm not proud of that but there it is) - so trying to use bookmarks and bookmarklets here has been horrifying - the creative craft video promised order from chaos - well I want my money back - at this point 40 minutes into the excercise I'd rather have a few .... you know what's on my desk - I do have a delicious account - I believe I also have installed (in spite of dire warnings that a malacious invasion would be risked) some kind of bookmarking tool of delicious's and some kind of tool of Mozilla's that works with delicious - BUT I HAVEN'T ACTUALLY GOT ANY WEBSITES BOOKMARKED in my delicious account and I understand I need to choose 10 that I think fellow library staff-mates should know about - never mind the technology, choosing those sites could be dicey ! At this point in the process I don't feel liberated or empowered - but I'm not giving up yet - I will consult with my leader this afternoon.
