I think this is consistent with my last entry and newly declared intention of reclaiming some of life back from the online world because it channels anything I might be interested in to one spot. I had been trying to achieve that previously to Learning 2.0 anyway by using the links bar in my browsers etc but this is a much more efficient of staying up to date on work and other interests in a less time-consuming way.
I set up a bloglines account (and I am beginning to wish I had set up my blog using Bloglines because everything really would be in one spot). I used some of the options from the directory like BBC, a couple of library ones and Salon. I also used the Communities option to enter my daughter's Live Journal - very simple to do, just put in her user name - but she wasn't happy so I had to remove it. For the purposes of the exercise I added my own flickr account and I also added a tag update for the Glasgow School of Art so that I will know when anyone uploads a photo of one of my favourite buildings. I added the blogs of some of my colleagues as well as Davey P. a wonderful exponent of Library 2.0 from Yorkshire that I have come to know via the SirsiDynix Horizon list.
I was amused last night after the Grand Final to click on the BBC headline - their angle was that Aboriginal players were now dominating football. Interestingly, I can't find a trace of this story now.
I have added my public bloglines account to my blog profile but it is still constantly changing.

I keep forgetting to check Bloglines and end up with so many feeds. I've now followed you example and added some staff blogs. That's a fantastic picture of Tansy.
