Twitter CPL 2.0 May 24

Twitter is all about sharing information in new ways through the use of technology and it is changing the way we receive our knowledge. Since Tweets are received in real time it allows users to stay current on a number of topics. Twitter appears to me to be most valuable when used on a mobile device as opposed to a PC.

LibraryThing

I will promote this website to library customers who are avid fiction readers while working the circulation desk at Forest Lawn branch. This site is a valuable place for readers to share their books with others.



I may use this site to find out what others are reading or to read book reviews or ratings. I would probably not join this site and tag and rate my own reading.

On-line Productivity Tools

I think I'll stick to more traditional ways of using a calendar or use Outlook calendar as it is a productivity that I already have available to me. Some calendars like Scrybe seems far too complicated to use and does not appear to be upgraded on a regular basis.

Flickr & YouTube

Flickr and YouTube are very user friendly and entertaining. You can have fun with these websites and everyone gets to be a **Star**.
