I have to confess: Rolly-O has been a hard concept for me to swallow. Basically, you create a subset of the web to search using sites you rely on. Your search becomes less comprehensive and more precise. I wasn't convinced this had any value to me.
I searched Rolly-O for an existing search roll on the subject of children's books. I found it annoying that so many of the hits were still booksellers; I was hoping to find reviews, lesson plans, storytime ideas. Next, I tried the term "full text"and found that most of the children's books were too old to be relevant. Then I tried searching Rolly-O for search rolls based on fingerplays. Bingo. I found some really nice search tools for storytime resources. This was something useful!
