Week 6 - Thing 13 "del.icio.us"

I have hearing good things about del.icio.us for a while now but never got a chance to actually play around with it, so this was the perfect opportunity for me. It's a great tool to know about and finally I can carry all my favorites with me all over the place. In addition to this, the community is great you can explore other people's saved bookmarks and the possibilities are endless of you finding a new and interesting websites. I spend half hour looking at other people's favorites.

Week 5 - Play Week - Thing 12 "Rollyo"

I have used multiple search engine before but this the first time I saw something that lets you create your own custom search engine. Its pretty easy all you do is list all the websites you want Rollyo to search and it will create your own personal search engine. This tool is great for creating search engine for web forums because they are the hardest to search. I have played around with it and created my own search engine for music videos. so search and enjoy...

Week 5 - Thing 11 "Exploring Web 2.0"

I have been using YouTube.Com for a while now and it seems to be the next best to hit the web since google.com. Making an account with them is free and easy and after making account you can upload your personal videos. They do on the fly video conversion so when you are uploading there software converts it real fast so you can share the video as soon as you finish uploading. I have used it to upload punjabi videos which my friends can view all over the world. You can even create your own channel where you upload new stuff every week or so and people wait for it. Many mainstream artists are using it as a primary tool for promotion and it seems like it is going to be the primary tool for 2008 election.

Another Main thing I like about YouTube is you can take the code for the video and the embed that in your blog or myspace.

Week 4 - Thing 9 "Useful Blogs (Blog Searching)"

Since I have been using RSS feeds for a while now, I was familiar with the concept of RSS Blog Feeds but I didn't knew there so many useful sites like "Feedster" & "Topix.net". I played around with it for a while searching for all kinds of stuff. I also discovered that Britney Spears is the one of the top searched names on all of the sites which is really funny to me that people have time to gossip about such things. Overall it was nice to learn something new about the blogging & RSS world. :)

Week 4 - Thing 8 "RSS Feeds"

I have been using RSS feeds for about two years now. Ever since they integrated RSS in Firebox browser, they have been part of my everyday life. I use Gmail RSS to get my email on my desktop in real-time. Also C-net, CNN, BBC & MSNBC newsfeeds are very useful and are part of Windows Vista Desktop. I really think RSS will be used in future a lot more as more and more people are becoming familiar with them.

Week 3 - Thing 7 "Technology Related"

Denali tape deck modded for iPod docking
Originally uploaded by gabrupanjabii.

While there's no shortage of ready-made options for connecting your iPod to your car stereo, if you want a truly integrated look you''ve really got to get your hands dirty and rip into your vehicle's factory parts. If you do, you could end up with a ghastly mess, or you could have something that looks like like JPPadula's new-and-improved GMC Denali tape deck here. While it'll likely never play a Huey Lewis & the News cassette again, it will accept an iPod quite nicely, with a full-functioning ejection mechanism and its innards wired up to the vehicle's Kenwood deck to allow for control over song selection. Of course it does have the slight downside of needing to be completely retrofitted for each new iPod, but who says iPod mods always have to be practical?

Week 3 - Thing 6 - Having fun with Mashups :P

Week 1, 2 & 3

Week 1 - Introduction

Thing 1 - "Introduction"

Introduction was good, and it got me started on the blog thing. I am glad that Library 2.0 is allowing us to learn all this stuff and I think this helps us understand new technologies around as well as connect to the fellow Library Empoyees. :)

Thing 2 - "7 & 1/2 Habits of Learning"

I found the presentation very Intersting. I think I personally relate to "Viewing Problems As Challenges" and "Using Technology for our Advancement". I think if we use this in our daily life it can really change our lives in better way. :)
