Lesson three results

I wanted to separate this out from the data collection part of lesson three, because it was lost at the bottom of the other post.

sphere.com was the best, for the related content, it showed me when I had narrowed my results to a acceptable level. Zero related results. and it gave me a good blog to read. Blogging feels like the wikipedia of news articles. as opposed to organized sites. dynamism that Reuters can't reproduce but also with the associated chaff.

No, I dont think i am going to change my net reading habits. Unless I start looking for a job again, these are helpful tools for academic job postings.

This is a handy blog talking about what we are doing here. I found it by looking for library IT info. Article of interest : Information Ethics and Librarians.

haha, we need to redesign our library site right?, and libweb is discussing it. Well here is a blog about another academic library going through the same thing.

(as a side note library 2.0 curriculum having everybody make a blog artificially produces a ton of blogs with library 2.0 in them, thus muddling my results) just weird
