Roll, roll, rollyo

Since I am a little bit of a control freak, I like the idea of setting this up when I take my students to the computer lab -- it would keep them focused in the areas I wanted them to be. I really liked the Mr. Fix-it search roll. My husband always tells me that "people" can't fix whatever -- you have to hire someone. I take the view of let's try it first. I did make a reference roll.
Library Thing is quite fun and I can see a lot of uses for a library. I would probably add it into my library wiki to advertise new books, special collections, student favorites, teacher favorite, tie-ins to core curriculum. Any time a student can add a comment or recommendations give them a greater connection to a book and time to reflect on what they remember. Personally, I already using Good Reads which gives me many of the same functions.

Why does it still take me forever to add to this blog?! I can usually figure out the 2.0 task, but posting it, is always a big chore. Oh well, lots of great choices to make cool things.
