#24 Here we go again! I'm excited to work on more "Things".

#23 Evaluation

2008-09-11T13:05:00.000-07:00

I really enjoyed doing 23 things on a stick. I think it has valuable information for everyone in the library. I know many staff who started but haven't finished. I will try to encourage staff to keep plugging away! I will keep blogging - and will work on getting better at these new found skills!

#23 Staying Current

2008-09-11T12:58:00.000-07:00

This is a tough one with all that I have to do at work each day. I do think a lot of things I have learned - like adding RSS Feeds - will help me stay current. Work/social networks can be very helpful also. I already use webjunction quite a bit.

#21 Other Social Networks

2008-09-11T12:53:00.000-07:00

I joined Ning and commented. However I also had trouble with the badge. Tried a dozen times and never posted!

#20 Facebook

2008-09-11T11:49:00.000-07:00

This is something I have heard so much about and never looked at. I saw a few people I know. I can see why kids like it. They can keep in touch with out calling! I joined the ALA and Library 2.0 interest group. Now I will see if my kids will agree to be my friends??

#19 Podcasts

2008-09-11T07:38:00.000-07:00

I listened to one of the Memo Conference pod cast and the Interview with Librarian Sue. I found them both informative and interesting. I liked that you can join whenever,listen and stop and start whenever you want. I found the Yahoo directory easy to use and I could see my self subscribing to a podcast regularly.

#18 YouTube

2008-09-11T06:00:00.001-07:00

How fun. I loved the videos that were listed especially the IT Librarian one. I didn't recognize anyone from the ALA Conference. I chose the Young Frankenstein video because It's a Musical and I would love the see the show. My Son saw it in New York and loved it.

#17 ELM

2008-09-08T13:17:00.000-07:00

Elm is a wonderful resource. The one I use the most is worldcat for cataloging. There is so much to this resource! eBooks are getting more and more popular at our library.

#16 Student 2.0 Tools

2008-09-08T12:54:00.000-07:00

Wow - I wish I had these tools when I was in school. I will let my college Junior know about these tools. For any project that you need reminders this would be a helpful tool.

#15 Second Life

2008-09-05T13:34:00.000-07:00

I signed up second life. I've never been into 'cartoons' of any kind. I don't think I would spend my time with this.

#14 Library Thing

2008-09-05T12:49:00.001-07:00

Interesting...don't know if I would use this in my current position. Reader's advisory folks might love it.

#13 Getting Organized

2008-09-05T12:36:00.000-07:00

I loved the My Yahoo page. I will put this on my computer at home. I use an online calendar at work and this really helps to keep me organized. I don't know if I would us the list tools.

#12 DIG

2008-09-05T12:19:00.001-07:00

I can see where some people would really like this tool. I'm not sure if I would use it. I more into local news.

#11 Del.icio.us

2008-09-05T12:06:00.000-07:00

I Labeled my post from #10. Very easy to do. Signed up for a Del.icio.us account. I don't do a lot of this - but found it interesting.

#10 Wikis

2008-09-05T11:39:00.000-07:00

Loved the Library Success and Library staff Wiki. Great way to share information. I made a entry in the Wiki Sandbox and the 23 things Wiki!

#9 Collaboration

2008-09-05T11:27:00.000-07:00

Tried zoho writer and and signed up for Google Docs. Both were interesting but I had trouble editing in both. I saw that this was a problem for a lot of others.

# 8 Bling

2008-09-05T10:57:00.001-07:00

No matter how many times I tried I couldn't get any pictures or bling or anything else. Very frustrating.

#7 Communication

2008-09-05T06:50:00.000-07:00

The library uses email to communicate with each other and recently we started using email to communicate to our patrons. We are emailing holds and overdue notices. We are getting Meebo on our web site for our patrons to communicate with us. As far as IM and Text Messaging - I use it all the time!
I was on OPAL for a book discussion.

#7 COMMUNICATION

2008-08-19T11:48:00.000-07:00

Found the session on Meebo very informative. Looking to add this to our website.

Posted some trading cards. Thought I should let people know why my name is Performer- because I perform! Currently in a Play for The Merlin Players. Moving on.

PLAY!

#5 Fun with Flickr

2008-08-19T08:05:00.000-07:00

Still going with the Dog's theme...don't know why. Maybe it's because they are so very cute. Has been a while since I've done this. Time to ramp it up.

This was very frustrating! It took me a long time to figure out how to post a picture. But it is done!

RSS Feeds

2008-02-17T13:41:00.000-08:00

I really see this as a timesaver and way to stay on top of things. I added a few websites and blogs to start out - but I know I will add more.

Library 2.0

2008-02-17T12:56:00.000-08:00

I look at Library 2.0 as a wonderful challange. I agree that some things in the library have to change. Change is hard for some staff in my library. To accomplish these new goals we have to shift focus. Wow - what an exciting time! I'm ready! Lets go!

2008-02-06T11:27:00.000-08:00

Here is my first post. And it is done.
