My second blog

Blog number 2.  Learning about Flickr, what a fantastic way to store and protect precious memories.  Found some terrific shots of Mandurah, who would live anywhere else! These images are of our new Falcon eLibrary and Community Centre being built. http://flickr.com/photos/fieldplates/ Its such a beautiful building. It's full of light and has such a great feel about it, it really deserves a visit. I'm thinking about putting my own collection of photo's on Flickr to keep them safe, although I do also have them on a portable hard drive. It would be great to put all of our library event photos up where everybody could access them. We have such a lot of great events like author visits, children's activities, I particularly love our collection of photos from our Home Library Service Christmas party for our patrons.

My very first blog

This is my very first blog ever.  I'm learning about Web 2.0 and part of the course is to create your own blog and post it.  This is all new to me, I've just learnt that blog is short for web log, how dumb was I?  I suppose I should make this blog relevant to my work, however I can't see too many of my patrons looking at my blog as most of them are elderly residents of nursing homes and wouldn't know what a blog is! However if they ask I will know now!I wonder how many comments I will get for this blog.
