Thing 2 - What are you looking forward to in 23 Things @ NEFLIN?
Personally - Photosharing (flickr) and social networking (Facebook/MySpace). I've been hounded long enough about "getting on" Facebook or MySpace or SOMETHING. I feel like I just don't have the time - definitely not at home with an 18-month old. I am also afraid of getting "addicted" to it. Sometimes it's hard to pull myself away from the great treasures of the internet! I finally got an iPod for Christmas this year. Again, it was one of those things that I said I would never have any time for. When I finally took it out of the box almost a month later (mind you, I would have LOVED this kind of thing 10 years ago when I loved music and had plenty o' time on my hands) I played with it on iTunes from 10:00 at night until almost 2am! This could be a problem - I need my precious sleep!! Anyway, I'm feeling left out by not keeping in touch with family and friends, sharing photos/videos with everyone, and keeping up with technology. So, I guess there will be no excuse when Things 5 & 18 come around!!
Professionally - I have never posted a video on YouTube, but have checked out many others there. I was thrilled when a team of librarians from our university created tutorial videos for each of the libraries on campus. Each video gave a tour of the specific library and the resources available to patrons. They should be very useful for our students. I can see how more videos could be created in the future for a variety of uses in our libraries! I am also looking forward to exploring Florida Electronic Library. It seems that there are many helpful resources consolidated into 1 place and I would like to use it as a reference tool especially during Ask A Librarian shifts.
So, bring on the Things!
