Learning 2.0 #23 - What did I think?

I was excited about this project when it began, but I do have to admit that halfway through I was getting fatigued. Luckily, the date for completion was pushed back, renewing my vigor.

All in all, I think this project was a wonderful opportunity for library staff to learn about the many social networking sites out there. It gave people a goal and a method to discover things they may not have otherwise. I had experience with many of the 23 things already, but I found the most satisfaction in helping my coworkers learn new skills and try out some really fun tools.

Web 2.0 tools have changed the way we "Internet." Static pages are no longer the norm. Now it's all about creating content and letting others comment on it, build on it, and re-create it. Ownership has become much more blurry. I have my fingers crossed that SCLD will incorporate some of these incredible tools in their services.
