Friday Fun & Learn – RSS in Plain English

This is our Friday fun and learn for today….we are going to learn more about RSS feeds today. You have seen my article in the PABC newsletter, and might have even read a specific article that I wrote last year on RSS and health literature – “Introducing Web 2.0: weblogs and podcasting for health librarians

In a nutshell, you will use RSS feeds to collect all new info that comes from all over the web in one place – your online RSS reader!

Today, take a couple of minutes to take a look on that simple video that explain RSS in regular language.

Have fun!

Friday Fun – Web 2.0 … The Machine is Us/ing Us

** For RSS readers, please note that there is a video embedded in this post

Today’s video would talk mostly to those physios who are pretty comfortable with technology, and my colleagues – librarians who read this blog.

However, those folks in clinical practice – please take a look on this short video created by a cultural anthropology prof – Matt Wesch to see what kind of digital world we have to work in even now, not even mentioning our children…I don’t even imagine how that world will look like when my daughter – Tal (who is ten months old tomorrow 🙂 grows up……interesting times just ahead of us….

Have a sunny and peaceful weekend everybody!

Friday Fun – Marge Simpson Googling herself :)

Here is a very short clip from YouTube – RSS readers , please note that there is a video embedded 🙂

Marge Simpson Googling herself 🙂 By the way, when you Google your name – put it in quotation marks, like “Eugene Barsky”, which will instruct the search engine to search for that particular phrase somewhere on the Web – it is more precise.

Have a great weekend! It is definitely going to be sunny here in Vancouver…
