Week 9, Thing 23

I can't believe our 23 Things are complete!  Growing up with technology and the Internet, I thought I knew what I needed to regarding websites and tools.  How wrong I was!  This served as an eye opener to the amazing tools available on the Internet, tools that can specifically be applied to libraries.

Resources and exercises I enjoyed most, and continue to use, are:

• Delcious.com (After learning of this website, I use this tool at work on a daily basis)
• Web 2.0 Award Winners Website
• Podcasts

There will always be new tools surfacing, thus I will rely on the Web 2.0 Award Winners and a website I discovered through a search on Delicious.com called www.Mashable.com.  If the CSLA offers a continuation or updated version of this class, I would love to enroll.  

To improve upon the course, I would like to see more "how to's."  Such as, how to make your own podcast.  

If I were to describe this journey in one sentence (as requested)..."23 Things afforded me the opportunity to become more efficient and creative while offering my library patrons technology resources a step above a typical and dull library website."
