Morale

My morale is high as on LibraryThing, the English Faculty Library at Oxford  thinks my collection of books for Westminsterlanguages  is an interesting Library. Woohoo! I have made it. As a thwarted cataloguer,  I love LibraryThing.

Thing # 12 Google Apps

I'm afraid I'm no fan of Google Apps. I always have problems uploading documents to it, like today 2010 Diane Training.xlsx (The uploaded file could not be imported.)  There is no proper  training and support for it as it is a generic Google product and you're just supposed to use the Help screens or the forums.  I don't know why my files don't load so  I can't progress.  I also don't like the cluttery inbox full of unwanted  esotheric shared documents that I can't delete.  I also understand it has limitations on formatting  etc and so the collaborative aspect of it is not as good as it could be.

My LibraryThing

Thanks to Ellie, I have now managed to link the  LibraryThing widget  to my other blog http://westminsterlanguages.blogspot.com/ 

It's at the bottom of this site too.
I think I may be becoming a fan of blogs.....

New look for Books & Leopards

I've changed the look and feel of the  Books & leopards template and am liking so far. Maybe I will set up a taxonomy for it as well!

This site looks good. I think I'm becoming addicted to Books & Leopards so I better stop now.

Technorati

Apparently, I'm the 999,999th visitor to Technorati so a blurry pop-up box tells me I have won a prize, wonder what it is?  I searched on leopards and found an Kenyan soccer blog (strange?)  and then  crime fiction and found some more blogs. It might be useful, if I ever  become a blog fan need to share them with others and it has  Facebook, Twitter, RSS buttons.

Delicious

Delicious - I'm all for sharing and there are some good pics of my favourite animals on here. I'll have to investigate having my own bookmarks and about folksonomies and taxonomies but it's to early on Monday morning to contemplate such things. Just setting up some estate agents booksmarks, how sad is that?

Rollyo

I searched for leopards on Rollyo and the first result was from Wikipedia . However, the second one was from National Geographic and I found an excellent pic of a sleeping leopard and a nice snow leopard blog http://www.blog.snowleopard.org/?cat=17 so I'm liking it so far.

Kindles and Library Thing

I wonder with the advent of Kindles if there is less need for sites like Library Thing. I seem to have acquired approx 60 e-books (many of them free of course!). Therefore on the device, there is already a list of them and you can group them by category so perhaps there is less need to use a cataloguing site.

Letter James rocks

Loving Letter James now that I have found a Berlin street sign and have got my wish of being a detective. Life is sweet. Looking forward to the weekend.
