In Conclusion...
These twelve weeks have been quite a ride that I have enjoyed for the most part. Although I have gained knowledge about blogs, RSS feeds, podcasts, etc, I have only scratched the surface of what web 2.0 has to offer.
It would be fantastic if VBPL could use these platforms to widen the number of staff who can participate in trainings. Right now, branches can only send a handful of people. If trainings were taped and podcasted, for instance, everyone could benefit. We know what exists, but if we don't as a library system use it, all this knowledge is really useless.
Yes, I would participate in future trainings of this sort. Read previous paragraph. This training was really confusing in the beginning, but once I understood the process it was okay. Some may have been frustrated at the start and given up too soon. Paramount point is please make sure links work. Very frustrating when what you are learning about is filtered out by the city.
I bid ye all adieu. Happy blogging!
PS Maybe I should pick up a book and read now.

Thing 29
Okay here goes--
I enjoyed FlickR. I loved seeing places that I will never have the opportunity to travel to and also seeing familiar places through the eyes of the common folk rather than professional photographers. I hated Rollyo. Don't understand it; don't really care to understand it. I loved YouTube especially anything to do with animals. Always seems to brighten my day. I hated having to sign up for all these accounts. A hacker would have an easy time getting into my life. I can't remember anything so I just use the same password over and over and over... Podcasts were fun and surprisingly informative as well.
I have read my coworkers blogs and am impressed with the creativity, intelligence, and wisdom that exists in our library system. I have learned that even I can blog. So there!

Rollyo
Well, I explored Rollyo. I don't see much use for this. Maybe I missed it, but there's nothing novel here. Don't need another time waster. Got too many already.
