Week #5 - Thing #12 Rollyo

Here's an example where I like the visuals but not the usage. Maybe I need more exploration on how to set up Rollyo, but, the advertising alone is reason to move on. I question its thoroughness. Was curious about the subscription databases which turned up some hits, but nothing came back from KidsClick. I was looking for an alternative to Destiny's One Search which doesn't work. Anyway, it adds some needed color and style to the blog.

At the suggestion of a learning team comment, I went back and added my cohorts' blogs to Google Reader. We've set up our emails for posts so will have to see which is more convenient to stay current. A long afternoon figuring out Rollyo and shuffling through Mac tabs.

We've heard the advertising comment several times lately. Maybe Rollyo has increased the amount of ads on their site since a year ago...Thanks for the "heads up."

Not only are there ads around the edges but also some of the links.
