Thing 6: Blog Readers


Signed up for Google Reader to keep track of some the 23 Things blogs. Also signed up for the "staff recommendations bundle." After a quick examination I dumped about half of the staff picks. The diversity of blogs is endless but the quality seems to be another matter.


The Google reader interface is attractive and easy to use. The Google mobile app on the iPhone looks great, too.


My initial reaction to the content available is that the amount of material out there is absolutely dizzying. As librarians one way we can help our patrons is to help them find their way through this maze of information.
