I am no longer lazy I have squeezed out some more blogger time. After having to switch on a some thinking grey matter I have mastered the bloglines account and the making of a public account for all to witness my feeble collection of feeds. View on this blog or go to Http://www.bloglines.com/public/fatrat.
The next stage of my learning curve was tripping through various search tools The bloglines search tool provided some basic searching. Feedster was not good to look at as the search re sults were jammed in and not easy to read but it did have a useful search tips button. Sadly, a zero result for Australian book reviews.The search tool that did appeal was Technorati. A colourful easy to read tool with an advanced search under keyword, URL,Tag or Blog directory. I also liked the top movies, news, videoes etc. Looking for a blog quickly then look here. A much better score of 491 for Australian Book Reviews and over a hundred for Great Australian Libraries. Something for everyone.
Next I zoomed into Ebscoe ANZ Reference Centre and with the assistance of their many help buttons I successfully added a feed "Magill Book Reviews". Overall an interesting but lengthy exercise. The most important benefit of all this is organising incoming info into one easy to find locale.
