Well of course for my some of my digital resources (the ones I've remembered to save on my computer) I could just do a general search and I would find it... but there is no real way of giving the file a description or comment (there probably is I just don't know yet).
Then there's the web sites you get told about in passing, it gets written on a scrap of paper and never to be seen again..... or you put it in a safe place, file it and magically it disappears.
Also, I'm always emailing fellow classmates resources and handy web sites to visit in their spare time (procrastination time), in between facebook posts. So I decided that I could 'hit 2 birds with the 1 stone', I would blog my resources - both Home Ec and Geography, and give a brief description, that way I know what the resource is and where to find it..... along with anything else that might pop up..... we'll see how we go.
Hey Nay, I followed your facebook link, its Andy in Tas. Doesn't trying to keep everything filed just do your head in... Im an unintentional information gatherer and have a pretty poor ability to discern what I will and wont need later so save everything. I do it with text, and images.
ReplyDeleteBoth have the same issue in that its tough trying to balance how you structure things... do you keep you categories wide or create a zillion subcategories? Obviously its a balance of the two but its a constant challenge, whether its in folders in your filing cabinet, in folders on your computer or in tags on your blog!
Tag wisely, good luck with it :)
