My experience

Wow! After this only one more step to go. At one point I thought that I would never get done. My favorite thing to discover was Flickr and I can see myself using it long after Learning 2.0 ends. Flickr is a great way to share photos with family and friends and it saves money because you do not have to worry about printing out extra copies of your photos. I also liked playing around with the online image generators. I think I will continue to use LibraryThing to keep track of some of the good books that I have read. I do not think I will ever become a paying member and catalog over 200 books. I also have enjoyed doing this actual blog itself, which surprises me. I will keep putting entries into my blog after Learning 2.0 ends because I am taking a library class that requires a blog. Exploring RSS feeds and podcasts were interesting steps because I was able to see which library systems were keeping in tune with technology and embracing it. It was pleasing to see some really good library web portals out there on the information super highway. I can say that this program has given me some added computer skills. My blog is certainly not as fancy as quite a few of the other blogs that I have looked at but I have done all of the work without any assistance. There were some steps that I did not care for but I understand why they were included in Learning 2.o. It was important to explore every step to get a grasp of why certain steps worked and others were not as useful.
