I'll have a go at adding the Crikey feed.

Week 4
RSS has been all new information. I haven't found using Bloglines very intuitive, but am getting used to it. At first, I wasn't sure if I'd successfully added the feed or not. I'm still not convinced I prefer it to Bookmarks which go straight to the site with instant viewing of a variety of possibilities - pictures, videos, cartoons and text. The feeds I added are mainly from sites I'm familiar with - Crikey, Wired, Australian/Arts. I added the Library one The Shifted Librarian which had an interesting article about the link between literacy and net games. I just went back to look at the article and it had "gone" - things are shifting at the speed of byte just as they said. (Found it when I reset to all articles) The recommended Powerhouse site suits this format. RSS seems to be a good way to highlight 1 item daily from a collection.

I was also interested in the paper looking at info literacy and gaming - being a bit of a runescape fan myself it was encouraging to think in terms of building skills rather than wasting time! Somehow I don't think that our local country library is ready for a gaming explosion but it was good to see that there are library services out there who are focussed on providing what the patron wants.
Happy musings.
