Social Networks

Well this is just great I can see what all young ones are talking about now. What a great way of people meeting new friends through friends or just a group of people interested in the same things. This is great for people in remote areas to stay in touch. I haven't joined a social network yet but Gee Whizz I intend to.

I would like to thank the State Library for offering learning 2.0 to the public libraries and allowing staff to learn 2.0 at their own pace, because if I had to go to a course on this for a day I am afraid I would not retain the information. I have learnt some wonderful ways of using the internet. Some areas were a little trying at times but with help from library staff and the state library I worked it out. I feel very pleased that I have completed learning 2.0.

Online Applications and Tools

WOW I can't believe these applications are free. Being new to the internet I found this quite amazing and was waiting for the catch. With the guideness of the State library showing what applications are free I feel I can look at these application s and tools with out the worry of the "Catch". This is something I would not have tried on my own so look out now.

Mashups

What a lot of fun with this section was. To many great ways to display photos maps or anything you want I found it hard to decide what one to choose to add to my blog loved Hockneyizer so I went with it for my blog. I will find a use for this at work and using it at home. I have really enjoyed this part learning 2.0.
