PSLA Wiki

After an email I sent to my state library listserv today, I have volunteered to start a wiki for our conference next week. I want to create a technorati tag, which I've done. I'm using this post to get it as a recognized/searchable tag.

#14 Technorati and tagging

Apparently I signed up for a Technorati account in September, although I don't recall doing it. I've now claimed each of my blogs using the Technorati claim page and it seems to be regularly pinging them. I did have a problem claiming my blogger blog, but I filled out a support ticket last night and it was working when I checked this morning.

Using Technorati tags in a blog posts looks like more html work than it's worth but that's primarily since I don't expect to see much traffic to my site. Then again, I suppose if I used Technorati tags, I might get more traffic so maybe it's a chicken and egg thing.

I was surprised by how little I found by searching "school library learning2.0" and various permutations of it. It seems not many people are really blogging about it or at least they're not using tags that I would expect them to use. I think I ended up tagging most of my posts SLL2.0 so I tried that as well, but still there were few results (and I didn't find my own posts either.) I can definitely see value in using Technorati to find information on current events and opinion pieces. I don't see many of my co-workers using it on a regular basis though.

# 9 Blog and news feeds

As I said, I've been reading blogs for a while now. I did add some education related and SLL2.o feeds though so I can see what other participants are doing in the course of this project

Christopher Harris'
s School Librarian SuprGlu page
Information Literacy Weblog
Experiencing E-Learning
Cool Cat Teacher Blog
Library Alive!
Page Space
Red Couch Reader TL2

I used Technorati, the SLL2.0 Blogroll, and "Discover" on Google Reader to add to my feeds. Library Mum, author of PageSpace has been reading and commenting on my blog, so that's how I selected her. I'll have to see who else I should add as things move along.
