#TEN

23 things has introduced many forms of building social networks... face book, my space, and Ning. All three basically help people become more social. I can count on one hand my real friends, I feel facebook, my space, and ning are a little over rated!

There is positives and negitives to everything-I will try to keep in open mind to all this new age, fast changing tecnology, but i just dont understand why anybody would need so many friends.

thing*NINE*

The more I became familiar with face book , the more it began to grow on me!!!
I started meeting new friends and chatting with old ones, some of my old school mates don't have a my space, so I was able to speak to them again.

Creating an elaborate profile still scares me a little. Its like the more info you put out, the easier it is for people to get a hold of you ,even if its someone you don't want to find you.

I found myself becoming a fan with organizations I never thought to look into. I have to admit that after this, I got hooked.

THING 8

I've heard many negative and positive things about facebook, personally I think its a fun way to build relationship on line.Facebook has become my dirty little habit like smoking or drinking.Its an addiction I dont ever want to break. Its the first thing I log into-dont tell my boss and the last think I click on before the day is over.I am glad to have become more fimilar with Facebook because its a frequent website visted by most of our patrons.I dont see a connection to the library or staff.
Facebook is just a fun way to meet and mingle with a group of new folks !!!
I LOVE FACEBOOK

THING SeVeN

I will have fun looking for whats fast and new. Its more convenient to use RSS to update my blogs and keeping up with the forever changing web, especially when the information is coming to me instead of searching for it!!!!!!!!
Its important for library staff to stay updated with the quickest and best resources.Its a tad confusing how RSS Feeds are formatted and transmitted,but I was able to find it and add it my reader. It was fun sharing and posting Blogs***

THING SIX

I could see how helpful using Google Reader can be, how much more easier it is to visit one website, than many different sites. It is less time consuming and efficient.Blog Reader provides an effortless way to get information from a variety of sources.Blog Reader is essential to all Libraries when creating folders to better organize subscriptions.

Thing #5

I used the comic strip web site. It was cool discovering the exciting ways to manipulate images!

Thing #4

Using Flicker is easy and fun. I thought its was neat how it gave options to transform the picture.It gave the picture different meaning and almost changed the whole entire picture it self.






I like how Flicker made
my regular beautiful
picture become a
hand beaded work of art!
