23 Things Complete

For work we had to do 23 Things which related to Learning 2.0. I created a blog called Useful Software which showcased useful free software you can find on the Internet. When I finally complete the 23 things I am able to get an MP3 player. This blog entry is to complete the list.

"15. Read a few perspectives on Library 2.0 and the future of libraries and blog your thoughts."
I browsed through a few articles on Library 2.0 and I see the library becoming a one stop shop for all information needs covering all mediums and media.

"19. Select any site from the Web 2.0 lists, play with it and write a blog post about your findings."
The site I chose was YouTube. I've been going to You Tube for quite a while and I even have a video hosted there. YouTube was recently purchase by Google for over a billion dollars. I guessing that the things that made YouTube popular will go away when Google finally get its hands on it.

"22. Take a look at the titles available on NetLibrary and download a small title to listen to from the PC. Write a post about the experience for your blog."
Working at the library as the Help Desk I am often asked many questions concerning NetLibrary and audio books. I've download many and listened some I normally wouldn't have.

"23. Summarize your thoughts about this program on your blog."
I think this program has allow some individuals who would not normally venture onto the wacky world wide web an opportunity to learn something and have fun. It also helps to advance the library and librarians to a step or two up the technical ladder.
