End of Web 2.0 training

Well it has come to an end and I have learned a lot. There are somethings that I am sure that I will use and others that I will not but it was good to have a chance to examine them all. I now have a better understanding of what some of these components are and how we can help our members with them.

Social networking and Productivity

Don't have much use for social networks personally. Think that they take a lot of time to create and then keep up with. Am concerned with what younger folks put up--ie in the college days and then when they try to remove, have it "haunt" them for the rest of the lives. Figure it is easier not to use in the first place.

Have used an online calendar for several years here at the office. It is great as anyone can update the information, it is available no matter where you are and it is shared by all the staff. Makes it easy to see time off, vacations, where someone is or suppose to be etc. Still have not done away with my paper calendar but have found the online to be very useful.
