i chose MIT opencourseware. the course i picked was 21m.263 Music since 1960, spring 2006, and the instructor was professor Brian Robison. on thing i learned about the course was that you have to make four reviews and anallize the performances. and another thing i learned is that you have a term paper and a presentation. i would say that this is a good course to take if thats what your intrested in, and you can learn enough just by looking on the course ware. it seems to be very helpful with searching for classes you may want to take.
Thing #17
podcast are a cool way to look at certain things and have them so you could watch them anywhere you go. its a really neat idea but, i think that you could watch the news, or just regular TV. i think podcast are for those busy people who are always on the go.i guess its a cool new method to view news and watch TV shows. yes this is a very big development, and you can do many different things with podcast. personally i wouldn't use it too much, because i would rather watch tv. but if i didnt ever have time to watch tv, it would be a nice way to keep updated on my information.

anyone can use http://http://del.icio.us/ / , its not too hard . its just like a normal search engine just really high tech , and it has Rss feeds on it. it gives really specific things, it has almost anything you could ever need to know about, and it will answer many questions. tagging is where you put your information on the website, the disadvantage of that is that it may be incorrect and the advantage of it is it most likely is correct information. this and web 2.0 are somewhat similar web 2.0 will give you better and more accurate information and http://del.icio.us/ is a different type of reference. but which ever one you use you'll get information and then some. both are really good search engines and both are useful in any case.

1. Name 2 key characteristics of Web 2.0, and how these developments impact information seeking.
. one of the features that i found really cool is that they all have Rss feeds and you can hear certain things about the websites. this devolps searching through the internet , it searches through many different topics even when you just type in one word.. and you can find so many different things.
2.Name two web sites you commonly use (not MySpace) and explain why (or why not) they can be classified as Web 2.0.
. one website i use is sherdog.com and it can be classified as a web 2.o because it isnt a main search engine. its a website the has a direct location, where as another website i use a lot is yahoo, it wouldnt be classifed as a web 2.0 because its a main search engine. you tube classifies as well.

Thing# 6
i searched for many different things , the first one i found was Ufc i subscribed to that because i enjoy watching it and its something i take an interest to. oh yeah i also added rolling stone to my Google reader because i enjoy reading about music i love music. that is also why i subscribed to MTV, i love reading about all the new music and the shows they show on MTV. its all so exciting...... to find all these feeds i typed in ufc, and then i typed in music and all these things came up and you chose which one you want. its really simple, and its also really fun. you can read about almost anything you want just by using RSS feeds.
Thing #5
1.) it would be some what confusing to explain to a friend. i would tell them to go to google.com/reader, then from there just tell them to start subscribing. they choose any topic of their choice, all they would have to do is type it in the box and add it to their google reader. for further refernces.
2.) i would use rss feeds on many ocausions. at home i could use them to read through when i get board, and with school if i ever need any refernces or articles i could definitly use them for that... i could show all my friend because im sure they never even heard of it. i could also use them for references if i needed to know any information about a topic i need help with.

1.)i think the library is arranged that way so we know which part of the library to search, for which books you would need. if i was designing a library i would keep it the way that it is, all the reference books in one place. the rest where they are arranged now.
2.) the most useful part of the library is the computer areas, you can do your homework there as well as search on the Internet for certain things. you can basically use the computer area for anything.
3.) the most convenient bathroom (well, that i think) is the one to the right right when you walk in the front entry.its right there when you walk in , and i think that's pretty cool.
4.) if i wanted to take a nap i would go straight to the back and use one of the table back there. its really quiet and its nice and warm to sleep there before you need to go to a class....
5.)i don't know of any good views from the library. i just think its a nice place to go to do some homework, and take quick naps... heh...
