Keeping up with the Blogs...

If you spend anytime reading blogs, you understand the trouble of bookmarking, remembering and keeping up with the latest posts. I attended a Library 2.0 conference at the Charlotte/Mecklenburg Public Library many moons ago. Michael Casey and Michael Stephens both shared "get your library butt into gear" or else presentations with inspiring images, words and general library goodness. At the time, the idea of web 2.0 was foreign. I have taken small steps and big leaps since then. It is feeling more like home.

One of the tools mentioned was a blog aggregator. This is a piece of software that keeps up with your blogs and will track posts that you have read. When you log in or launch the software, it will list all of the blogs you subscribe to and let you know which ones are new. Bloglines is one that I have been using for several months.

You can see my list of blogs here. Of course, they are mostly library related.
