LibraryThing is truly a fun and useful little tool! You can download it onto your phone and take it with you while you go book shopping and never get the same book twice! This is a good thing if you have a largeish library that you wish to expand! Yes, I'm a book nerd and love book shopping. Not much on shoes shopping though. Take a look at the first 5 books I entered. I may add more, when I get the time!

Generate this!

This was a fun exercise. I tried Generator Blog, Letter James and FD Toys. Of these I liked Generator Blog the best. It was easy to use and with a sizeable list wasn't very hard to find a generator I liked. There were plenty of fun ones that might be useful in the future. The Letter James had a very cool idea of making your own calendar and FD Toys had other fun ideas I may use in the future for different craft ideas for teens and or kids.

I found two generators I liked the best. Both are Snowflake generators but are unique in their own right. http://snowflake.lookandfeel.com/ & http://www.zefrank.com/snowflake/

Enjoy!!

"Feed" me Seymour...

Goodness, this was a funny movie. Can't help but think of "Little Shop of Horrors" when I look at RSS feeds. Some feeds I found while surfing were: Cross Stitching.com Blog & my favorite, A Legacy of Laughs, featuring some of the old time radio comedians (Jack Benny, Abbott and Costello, Uncle Miltie, Mel Blanc & many more!)

I played around with all the suggested search tools for feeds but found Blogline's Search tool the easiest and quickest to use. I like to laugh and craft so I chose these. I also found some feeds, that in the description looked promising, but alas they had died and were no longer available.

RSS Feeds

Me personally I'm not a big RSS feed fan. My dad, on the other hand, is a news junkie. He would totally love this tool. I try to avoid the news at all costs. I really haven't thought much about the benefit of using this with the library, however I'm sure there's a very nifty and informative use for this too. I may go home this weekend and show dad how to use this and see if he likes this any better than azcentral and the major national news channels (you know the ones I mean).

Forgot one thing...Take a look at the feeds I added. They may look familiar but enjoy all the same!
