This week I feel like I've been playing catch up. A lot of that has to do with not feeling well last week and midterms in my other classes. Hectic, doesn't begin to cover it (expected though it was). All possible of course, but it does make for a stressful week. The Web 2.0 material was fairly familiar to me since I've used most of it before. I've used Skype and Twitter sporadically and have been on and off Facebook since I joined. One thing I have noticed with all of these different programs is that it is very easy to get sucked into it and not get what or as much as you would like done. So far as libraries are concerned it is important for them to have some type of presence on Web 2.0 sites and the Internet in general. This is especially true as people who have lived all their lives with this tool age and are born. They will expect information at a faster rate than people of previous generations (even sometimes those born in the 80's or just before). I finished the sklls test and I think I misunderstood it last week or was thinking of a different test. The questions were interesting and it demonstrates the absolute necessity of being specific when searching the Internet.
I'll be using Facebook and Twitter for my two projects. I'll message the class again if needed about my account as I know one class member had difficulties. I am on Facebook fairly frequently and am intrigued by Twitter, though I admit that I use it very infrequently.
I admit to not being impressed with delicious. Now, I may have come in with a bias that stunted the entire process. The sites I chose do not appear to have had many updates. I depended on delicious to show me the updates. I'm not sure if I didn't look at the right places on the site or if they just didn't post very much.
Right now, I feel blank and am sorely tempted not to leave a picture because of that, but that isn't practical. Here's an attempt at a picture (assuming that it works)
Here's what information I know about this picture and I admit it isn't much.
