Well: Bobbybloggersocialmedia says: CURRENT AWARENESS POSTS! What the…..
I tried to watch both, here with background construction noises and can’t have my volume up too load as it distracts other learners. That said;
Robots delivering books – some automated book delivery system. That was great: I added it to my Consolidate and maintain industry knowledge assignment! But it was basically how you order books, these are selected from the ‘electronic library’ and how things will/may be done in the future. Remember, when robots take over – its all ‘humbug’. Seriously: yes these are good to see – watched a BBC doco on in at and they will not become widespread use as they take up space and are cost prohibitive – so there will still be work for us ‘manual librarians’.
The TED talks: internet filters? Well I don’t like the technology, so I struggled to take in what the Gen Y person was going on about. Still no idea what/who TED is. But the content of this talk was about ‘bubble’ filters derived from some algorithm that will allow what it thinks you want to see/watch via the internet. Seems like targeted ‘big brother’ quasi Internet use and isn’t that why China bans it? If we can’t see the whole scope of internet content because vested capitalist interest will not allow us all access as it may slant their advertising – why be on the net/web in the first place. It is not always the best search tool: my be quicker than a reference book – but not always as accurate. Yeah I’m a stickler for traditional methods – they work
