Thoughts about The 13 Things

This has been a great learning experience for me. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the web 2.0 tools are to use. I'm one of the dinosaurs who is used to having to write HTML code in order to use the web. I think the tool I'm going to like best for personal use is Flickr. I'm terrible about printing out photos, so maybe I'll be better at sharing them on the web! For library use, I'll try to incorporate RSS feeds and maybe blogging or some of the productivity tools.

The class format was very good. Taking one tool a week was about all I could handle with my busy schedule. I'd say the only problem was keeping up week after week. I did get pretty far behind from time to time. Maybe it would be good to have some kind of class that could be broken up into smaller chunks or modules.
