		<title>LIS724 Blog Assignment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I created my blog for a LIS class: Internet Fundamentals &#38; Design.  (I created one for my reference class, too, but I don&#8217;t know what happened to it).     I chose this design because it was &#8220;fun,&#8221; and I liked the organization of the aesthetics and additional information.  About two months ago, I created [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=18&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>My 753 Web Page</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I created a web site for my high school’s summer reading program.  The site consists of a main page, describing the program, and two secondary pages—one for freshmen and one for sophomores through seniors.  In addition to describing the summer reading program, the main page also externally links to the high school library’s [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=16&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Web Page Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Two library web sites that are well-designed and user-friendly are Columbia College (Chicago) Library’s and Ames Library’s at Illinois Wesleyan University.  The simple layout and aestheticism of each page assist in easy scanning, navigation, and searching.  Each of these web sites follow many of the principles listed in Smashing Magazine’s 10 Principles of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=15&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Web 2.0 Tool Review: Facebook</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past February, CollegeDegree.com rated Facebook, a popular social media site frequented by students, as #2 in their 25 Useful Social Networking Tools for Librarians list.  Thus, this is one web 2.0 tool that should be given more attention in libraries because of its social networking opportunities, its promotional and sharing capabilities, and its [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=14&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Post #5: Evolution of Tagging</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As an avid patron of Amazon.com, I have found their tag clouds especially useful.  This was the first website that I remember employing tagging in the consumer world, but I figured it probably started elsewhere&#8230;.and indeed, it did&#8230;.and many years before Amazon.com employed this feature.
One of the first consumer products to include tagging was [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=13&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Post #4: Web 3.0 Search Engine?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I came across a Newsweek article entitled &#8220;Revenge of the Experts&#8221;.  (Quick summary:  The article questions  whether or not the era of user-generated content on the web is on the way out with the rise of edited information/sites by professionals. )  This automatically piqued my curiosity because as a GLIS [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=11&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Post #3:  Blogs in Libraries</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Blogs (and other forms of social networking sites) seem to be an ever-growing part of Web 2.0, but they also serve an important role in professional dialogue.  I know that since I&#8217;ve started the GLIS program, I have been reading about five librarian blogs a week to stay current with new trends and issues [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=10&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[    In the past year or so, I&#8217;ve noticed how much my husband and I have been plugged into the Internet and our laptops.  We are constantly writing/reading emails, reading the news, and planning our school lessons.   However, we&#8217;re also watching a lot of videos online&#8211;from the news, television shows and movies [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ccarro7blog.wordpress.com&blog=2570508&post=9&subd=ccarro7blog&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
