Web 202 - Week 4 - Tastespotting.com

Wow, what a site Tastespotting is. You could spend all day looking at the delicious photographs of food and going from one link to another.

After I had had a look around the site, the recipe I decided on was Sausage, Basil and Mustard Pasta. It looked good and the recipe seemed easy to follow and the ingredient measurements were in metric (which I am used to) and imperial.

Yes,I will have a look at this site again, maybe to get some inspiration for dinner!. Some of the recipes were from the northern hemisphere as they used seasonal(summer)ingredients.

The task for Week 4 was fun and a nice change from library and customer related Web learning. I don't think that all Web 2.0 activites need to be directly related to libraries. It is good to get an overview of different sites on the Web and broaden our knowledge.

Web 202 - Week 3 Feed My Inbox

I have just created an account with Feedmyinbox.com and added Auckland City Libraries blog and also Sewing.com as my RSS feeds to my emails.

This site was easy to use and I think our customers would not have any difficulty in creating an account and adding up to five RSS feeds for free.

Yes, I think I would use this site again, probably to add another feed. As for using it on the learn.nets and in the workroom, well, I think it would be useful to keep up to date with what's happening in the library scene with the library blogs. I guess it would be finding the time to check and read the blogs that would be the problem.

I would be happy to promote this service to our customers now that I know about it!
