A blog that has taken my interest is ResearchBuzz - "Covering search engines, databases, and other online information collections since 1996". http://researchbuzz.me/
I like the way this blogger writes, as the text is short, pithy and to the point. The links are very interesting and cover a lot of different cutting-edge topics. It keeps me up to date with recent news and developments, such as the decision by Google to shut down Google Reader. A terrible decision, in my humble opinion.
It really is a 'buzz' blog full of bite-sized information bits and pieces of topical content, very relevant to our course and future careers as information managers.
Hey thanks for the link to ResearchBuzz - a blog I can actually read because the posts are short. I've struggled reading most of the blogs from the suggested list cos I look at the articles and I'm just like TLDR.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Yes I'm a bit the same, so the snappy presentation of ResearchBuzz is excellent for quickly seeing what you want to read and what you don't. I like the succinct way it just gets to the point of things, and then you have the freedom to go and research your interests more if you want to. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I must check this out!
