Life Long Learning 2.0

I really liked:

HowStuffWorks and eHow. I think they were really informative!

I also really enjoyed the intro video for this session. That documentary looks reallly interesting!

Web 2.0

I searched the 2.0 awards and found two of my favorites!

I've just started on Twitter and I can wait to play a little bit more with it.

I love lastfm. The fact that they offer the full song on most music instead of just a 30 second sound clip is great!

Mission:Possible?

OCLS mission statement:

The Orange County Library System, a public enterprise, brings value to the residents of the district through collections, staff, services and facilities. The Library connects our changing community to the evolving world of ideas, information and technology. Through continuous innovation, the Orange County Library System will create a well-informed, well-connected community, making Orange County a great place to live, learn, work, and play.


The area that I feel that OCLS needs to work on is to keep connected with the public. There are so many patrons who for example that don't know about our MAYL system. I feel that OCLS to better ourselves as a community organization should promote to the community more; through media, and outreaches to the general public.

Google!

For work and school I personally love google. Its great for finding information. I love how Google can now compact information for the user. I think that with the new software, information will be easier to find out than ever before.
