Muy delicioso!

I love delicious. I think it has great promise for library instruction. What I'd like to do is incorporate the RSS feed in delicious into the development of class research guides. There are so many ways to use tools like delicious and bloglines, but I think incorporating them into instruction is a very relevant way to reach students. Also, maybe finding a way to incorporate RSS feeds into CMS like Blackboard. A really great way to reach distance students.
I put IM into effect on the library web pages this week. That was sooo easy! All of these tools are easy and useful. There's a whole lot of potential out there.

Candice, These two websites
Candice,
These two websites may be of interest to you in your quest to add RSS feeds to your CMS. A librarian, Heather Matheson, of Carleton University gave a presentation at the OLA conference in Toronto a couple of weeks ago on doing just that. Her website is aimed at faculty and grad students but the tools and ideas are definitely adaptable to any library. Her presentation can be found at www.inspyre.ca and check out the end result at www.mydoughty.net . It's definitely inspiring! Sandra
