visit a bookshop

i like visiting airport bookshops while i am waiting for my flight.
they have displayed leisure readings. even though the space is limited but it has wide selections for traveling use.

exercise readers websites

i have visited a few online readers websites. the 'fantasticfiction.co.uk' catches my attention from its colourful homepage as well as its user's friendly design. after my search the page does not just bring out books list with books cover and simple introduction the author.

The website of Global books in print' is my favourite one, it is not just easily accessible but also provides with adequate information easily reading format.

Exercise # 23


Wow!! I do not believe i really catch up my all of my exercises or i am going to say '??' exercises have finished? So quick!! yes, indeed, i do enjoy these exercise even sometimes made me frustrated and kind of lost in the forest. But i have a good help team behind me always knew how to bring me out. i already told my friends and family members to get my 'blogger' and read it. without these exercises i would not know how many websites we can add in our libraries. sharing with whole world not just in New Zealand. To recall all of the technologies i learned i quiet enjoy RSS with Bloglines and Web 2.0 awards-Genealogy-Heritage which i will make my own family tree, in the future.
anyway, congratulations all of us. many thanks my help team.

Exercise # 22

Exercise # 21 is discovering My Space and Facebook, exercise# 22 is learning about 'Social Networking with library', i do my Google searching what are different with them. i think it is good to read Danah Boyd June 24 2007 article 'Viewing American class divisions through Facebook and MySpace' http://www.danah.org/papers/essays/ClassDivisions.htmlthis article has very clear explanation between My Space and Facebook. after my read Meredit Farkas on May 10 2006 article 'Library in Social Networking Software' make me to come to a understanding all of a sudden. they are link like ' communication vehicles.' running, bringing and exchanging knowledge and information from multi-ways. that it’s a good idea for a library to at least seriously think about having a MySpace or Facebook' in the future. we always say 'Library is your Library'.

Exercise # 21

Browsing this exercise I do like Rotorua Library's Bebo, it is attracted people to discover the Library.
I am very interested 'Facebook' it is kind of my MSN (windows live messenger) and 'Skype', i can invite my friends or i be invited on their chatting lists. but 'Facebook' has more convenience functions. from my help team showed her 'Facebook' album and share with her sweet family beautiful photos. she told us she only needs to check on 'Facebook' she knows where her kids are and this web always be updated. yes, i sign-up and add my photo on 'Facebook' , i will ask my kids my relatives to sign-up to share our photos and messages. i really like the exercises make me learn more functions and information. even i have not learned thoroughly but i will take my time to do more exercises to satisfy myself.
welcome to join and be friends . click this website you will see my 'soul male' how handsome he is.

Exercise # 20


This image shows ebook like. carrying it with us to read in anytime at any place but it is not really good for elderly people or have eyesight problem readers. Small screen can not make printing big enough. For myself, i don't think i would enjoy it. it is very convenience for some disable just need to sit in front of computer to enjoy reading. I wonder these ebooks are fully copied? or just summary. these ebooks could keep forever without getting damaged or pull apart by readers. but first it needs to spend some money to buy this equipment to download them.
