Tagging seems confusing to me.........
I can see how it would be helpful for librarians,but probably not necessary for the patrons.
Anything that eliminates folders is music to my ears.Everyday we fill out any were from 10-20 new patron applications and its hard to keep adults and juvenile separate.I prefer too keep them separate because it easier to look up.If I could utilize tagging in our system I would tagg the words Juvenile and Adults,this would be less time consuming and less paper work to sort.

Today I began my twitter journey,
In many ways it reminds me of face book,
Am starting to understand that these are simple ways for pepole to socialized
Its all a little too much for me-I would consider myself anti/social
Twitter/Face book its fun ,but highly over rated

Using instant messaging is kind of like speaking in a new language. I understand the need for speed and of course time is always an issue, but instant messaging is more of a hassle than it is useful. I don't have many contacts because am not always on line.When I chat I like to do it in person.Instant Messaging is an excellent tool for people who live in different time zones and work on opposite schedules.

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***
