Week 3

I enjoyed week 3 and now have a better understanding of flickr. I added my first photo from the gallery. I also checked out other libraries and was impressed at how useful flickr is to keep staff and borrowers up to date on what's happening in their library.
I also took the opportunity to down load photos from my home computer and have begun the task of organising my photos, something that I've been wanting to do for a long time.

I found this beautiful photo on flickr and though I would share it with you all. It took a couple of attempts to add to the blog but with practice it should be easier.
Enjoy and look out for more photos.

Week 2

Welcome to my blog, this is my second attempt at Learning 2.0 and this time I plan to make time to complete the course. I have decided to do it at home so I don"t have the excuse of distractions and will have time to explore areas that interest me.
This is my first blog and until now I have not had any interest in blogging however just from reading the first weeks notes and looking at other blogs from Learning 2.0 I feel confident that I will gain a lot from this course. I can see how useful having a blog could be as a way of keeping borrowers up to date on what's going on in the library.
It's great all staff are encouraged to continue learning via this course as sometimes it's easy to let technology pass us by and only embrace what interests us rather than being familiar with the latest technology.
Just in the last year Twitter has taken off and I look forward to learning how to be part of it.
Stay tuned for week 3 update.
