Thing #1 Web 2.0

We are lucky to be media clerks in the library. It is exciting that we are in a position to really use and see the tools of the Read/Write web in application -- to understand, manipulate, and utilize these tools is an exciting journey. There is so much out there -- the very coolest parts are the relationships to be built, the creativity and impact we can wield, and the conversations to experience. And the learning and creativity! So much to learn...so much to create.

My goals for the class are to share some of the tools I use, learn to use more Web 2.0 tools, and be able to use them in the library setting and in my own personal productivity and projects. There are areas where my timidity keeps getting in the way of my own learning journey -- but, together with this PLN and a little disregard for my self-imposed limits, perhaps I can expand my comfort level and try some new things.
