this is the end???

2.0 certainly made me more aware of the great resources and just fun/social things people are talking about in the cyber space? It has been a challenge!!!!!!!!!!!

week 11!!!!!!!

Wow - these applications are great for internal documents - and many other uses I would imagine. You have opened a new world for me.

Mashups and the bewildered blogger

This was fun although I went the simple route -a simple magazine cover. It could be a great resource for librarians, especially in the local history area. Bighugelabs is so cool..........

bewildered blogger and podcasts

Agree with the many comments published - the possibilities for isolated/rural clients who can access [depending on the technical side] podcasts whether for study, social, information are wonderful. Learning modules/information etc for Library staff of rural communities which can be reached as time permits is another way for use in libraries.

bewildered blogger and answer boards

Answer boards are are a wonder - would our small library service get involved??? It would be interesting to be in the larger library systems to see where you could go with these extended services. Although it is so impersonal and shows people generally do want a quick fix

bewildered blogger and delicious etc

blog on delicious not there so to number 2 comment - feel lost - delicious looks yummy but need much more practise to take advantage of such sites, great for learning institutions but personally not interested.
ps could not access nswpln2008 in technorati but not the only one after talking to workmates - does that mean that it is deliberately mischievious........

youtube/google video

Have not been into youtube or google video before and being a library officer/assistant of a certain age found it very exciting - the end of isolation in a sense for country members. We would need to educate our library patrons [as well as staff]. Good stuff!!!!
Did not embed a video - needed more time but will look again at home.

wikis........yippieeeeeee!

Loved looking at the book lovers wiki at Princeton [you can see where my abiding interests lay]
It would be great to do something for our local readers about items available in our small corner of the world.
Wikis are a huge learning curve for me but what a great resource and recreati0nal tool.

finally and with help put p/house photo of the day on blog and did the bloglines thingy -

4th week and no better

Have been in bloglines and can see the wonderful idea rss is/are but could not find out how to put powerhouse photo of the day to my feed.............
still bewildered - 15 minutes a day HA.
bewildered blogger

flikr????????? and flowers

can really see how this concept would be wonderful for libraries - photos relating to events, activities, news etc. At our library even the wonderful collection of historical photographs would be easily available to any interested person. Here's to see if I can upload something? - didn't/couldn't get/pick up picture.

WSL Learning

After taking nearly an hour just to set up this "blog whatsit" I am not feeling confident about the rest of the Public Library 2.0 program. This is all so new, however am hoping at the end I will be super confident in all the things mentioned in the blurb.
Can see the need for this knowledge though and hope to be able to pass it on to our clients, old and young.
