Twitter

Hi Heather and Katie,

I have never twittered so it was interesting to see that people have comments about anything and everything.

The library twitters posted lots of activities that were happening at the library from programs to the opening of the new park at Memorial Park library.

I think the library twitters are on the right track and they could post some new books, DVD's and Cd's that we have ordered with maybe a bit of book or movie review.

Thanks.

Library Thing

I did enjoy perusing and browsing in Library Thing. I particularly liked the Talk Forum to read about people's opinions on different books. I think it was fairly easy to use and it was set up simply and the tour gave a good explanation about the site.

Thanks.

Hi Katie and Heather,

I could not see myself using these tools as I like to use more traditional methods like my wall calendar and daytimer. Also, most cell phones have calendars and notes in them that I would probably use over Google.

If I were to use one of the tools it would probably be the Yahoo calendar as weather updates are available, the latest in sports and entertainment are available and there is free pop up blocker.

Thanks.

Flickr and Youtube

Hi Katie and Heather,

I have watched videos on youtube previously and it is entertaining and fun to do. It is easy to use but I rarely use it.

I had never heard of Flickr before so it was good to find out what it is all about. I would not find it user friendly myself as I have never downloaded pictures before. I am sure that photo savvy users would probably find it easy to use.
