Investigative Exercise 1 Blogs

Blog is short for weblog and is a site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments, and often includes hyperlinks provided by the writer. It is the most commonly used of web 2.0 tools. The activity of updating a blog is “blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.” For your investigative exercise take a look at these 3 library blogs:

SI Ultimo Library - http://sydneyinstituteonline.net/uclibrary/

John Oxley Library Blog  http://blogs.slq.qld.gov.au/jol/

The librarian in black    http://librarianinblack.typepad.com/

Write a post on your blog about one of the blog posts you have looked at. Include in your post what interested you about this post. Make certain you label your post.
