I just did the last part of Competency Task 3, which is to talk about the use of the widgets for Blogger, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter. I either used blog widget to post some more Youtube videos to my blog. One is an episode of Batman from the 60's (Adam West played Batman and Burt Ward played Robin), with a villain called The Bookworm played by the late actor Roddy McDowall. Thought everyone would like it for a bit of entertainment due to the name of the villain. The Bookworm would be a pain in the neck for any library, as he would be wanting to steal books a lot. But how would he go about electronic books? Would've been an awesome plot for another Batman episode if electronic books were around in when the Batman series was made in the 60's. With one of the other Youtube videos I posted I could not embed it to my blog and could only post it to my blog with the blogger widget. This due to the settings the person who posted the Youtube video to Youtube changing the settings so that no one can can embed their Youtube video to a website.
Margie had a look at my Competency Tasks for both Competency Task 1 and Competency Task 2 as well as Competency Task 3 on my blog and said I had finished the class. Although there is a class next week for those who still have to finish off the Competency Tasks. I have thoroughly enjoyed this class and would suggest people take on Social Media Tools as it is beneficial with the things that I have learnt in this class. I did ask Margie if I was to decide to do the Web Design class next year would it be worth me keeping my blog, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter accounts for that class? As Khanh who I work with at Footscray Park Campus Library of Victoria University and who also does the Web Design Class off campus has had to use these Social Medial tools for that subject as well for her website. Margie did say yes for the answer to that question. So I am definitely thinking about doing Web Design class next year.
