Reflecting on the 2.0 experience

Discussed the 20 for 2.0 project at district meeting yesterday: It was considered valuable, but everyone expressed difficulty in keeping up and the feeling of “snowballing” as the weeks went by quickly. Libraries that scheduled time for training were most successful - that was certainly my experience. All agreed that it should be made available for public.

Most useful applications: blogging, Wiki’s, streaming and downloading media and delicious (tagging). Here is Oak Harbor Library’s delicious bookmarks address - www.delicious.com/oakref. Joyce is working on this site, converting our extensive Explorer Favorites to delicious while also verifying each site. Most loved application: Facebook - look for me under Mary Campbell Purcer (I need more friends!)
