- I found Twitter easy to use and to add to my blog.
- SHORT messages...and one isn't bored witless with long spiels
- It is interesting in a voyeuristic way to see what other people are doing in real time.
- Checking out Trade me auctions, cheap air flights and such.
- Fast links to other interesting places on the web
- Worldwide contact with others
- Neighbourhood contact with others
- Manukau Libraries are proactive in the use of Twitter e.g. book reviews etc
- Yes, I would certainly promote this service to customers
- Use in the workroom??? Haven't got enough time :(
This is my second blog, my first blog was when I began my adventure with learning 2.0. I think the only thing I fear about 2.0 is that I would end up spending too much time on it :) Our libraries could use a blog as a form of communication with our patrons, or between colleagues. We could have gadgets; or short librarian bio's; a photo a day in our libraries. We could also include a pb wiki or other forms of access for our patrons, so that they maybe able to tell us how we could be of better service. We could do so much...

Wow, another blog in the name of Learning 2.0. This is an online self-discovery exercise, which would help Manukau City Library staff further our 'expertise' and therefore help our many patrons in the various online queries that are presented to us daily.
The programme will cover six weeks and begin with this blog (week 1), followed by Zamzar (week 2) in which I will learn how to convert file formats. In week 3 I will be setting up a Twitter account and in week 4 I'll be signing up with ‘goodreads’ which combines books and social networking. This is followed up in Week5 with learning how to download music and mp3 files where I'll be exploring the various free music websites as well as downloading a mp3 file. I will visit Facebook in the 6th week and finally we've been shown what we could be doing in the future to further our knowledge on the internet. https://outlook.manukau.govt.nz/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://mlweb20.blogspot.com
This would in no way end 'learning through play.' What could follow is Learning 2.1...
