Exploring Blogs & Rediscovering Pinterest

Today's new challenge has been to explore other blogs, which I have already begun to do.  I spent some time over the last couple of weeks exploring colleagues' blogs. As well as posting comments, I also posted an article(?) on the BPC Library 2.0 blog, entitled "Have you got a Google+ profile?" to help colleagues who's blogs could not yet be seen by the rest of the group. I have had feedback (via email) that this was helpful for at least one individual.

I was very interested to discover via Marianne's blog that she has begun a Pinterest board for Teaching Information Skills. It was quite inspiring to see these resources displayed in such an attractive and visual way via Pinterest. My sole use of Pinterest previously has been to display research into library furniture and design. However seeing this has inspired me to create my own Online Learning & Development board on Pinterest to capture some of the best Web 2.0 and other online resources I discover: or at least those that are visually appealing!
