FINISH!!!!!!

On line survey

Can't find the survey.
My thought on Web2 - it is all about social networking. There are elements of it that system we should be using i.e. library blog, a libray page in facebook, bebo, texting library information etc. The important thing with changing technology - is to be open and receptive to it. Knowledge is power - you don't need to use it yourself but you need to know about it and be able to offer it to patrons.

E Books

E Books what can I say! Books are more than just reading, they are a tactile experience. They feed the soul, by touching the pages of a book, smelling the book especially if new and if not new being able to visualise the reader before. The ability to read a book in the bath, in bed, while travelling, having a book in the bottom of your handbag. It is an intimate relationship

E books in my opinion are a cold way to access information, especially for relaxation.

I know ithey are popular with ypung people especially males - but I feel they are missing out.

Podcasting and video:

Have created a video in earlier post on this blog - of myself, my sister and my mother. I enjoyed doing it but won't re-create this exercise as I'm pushed for time and time waits for no man (woman).

Bebo and Facebook

Bebo and Facebook
I use Facebook to keep in tourch with my son who is overseas. I have an account so I can access his page, but have not put anything on my face. I am a very private person and choose who I disclose information to. I personally feel people give out to much information and it at times must feel as if people are rummaging through your knicker drawer.
WEEK 8:
Zoho:
