Yes! I just figured out how to get LibraryThing on my page!
Now I just need to figure out Rollyo...I don't get it.

I just signed up on Twitter and it was really easy. I searched for libraries and librarians. I didn't find what they were tweeting very interesting, but it could be that I didn't find the right librarians. I was looking for some innovative and interesting ideas...it seemed that these people are tweeting just to tweet. Yawn...
I also looked at the list of librarians posted on Learning 2.0 and found lots of links and tweets that had nothing to do with libraries. I found Mr Librarian who was worthy of my time as he "works to get boys to read as a school librarian." His link was "6 Reasons Why Boys Like Magazines"
http://www.gettingboystoread.com/content/6-reasons-why-boys-magazines
This site is one that I bookmarked and will visit again as I implement new ideas that target my reluctant-reading-boys.
So...I think using twitter to find links and resources about libraries will be valuable. But the tweets I was hoping for (like easy Kindergarten check out ideas, creative displays, meaningful library media skills activities, etc) wasn't there.
I'm not giving up, though. Perhaps if I tweet what I'm looking for, I'll get a good tweet back!
