23 Things - Steps 7 and 8

The sainted 23 Things administrator has suggested another bumble - so here goes...

Now I'm on here, igoogle and Doodle, my suite of tools is beginning to feel reasonably up to date even though I know I've yet to become a twitcher, tweener or tweeter.  The aspect of it all that is beginning to tax me is how to apply all these shiny new things to my job.  It seems inadequate when I think that igoogle hasn't got an RSS (see, I'm learning the lingo ;) ) feed to the Warwick Uni insite page.  That's me home page, that is.

Good thing is that if all the peeps in the library are doing this for more than just a paper exercise, we could use it for slicker communication between us - better understanding, and some useful discussion.  (Emails?  Pah!  So last century ;) ) 

Anyways, I'm off to think about the applications.

Be seein' ya!

Off We Go...

Welcome to the first post on my blog.  It's purpose will be to update on my activities in the Warwick University library - the best library in the Midlands!

Of course, another purpose is to link more actively with our students and academic staff.  Technology moves apace, and we must do the same if we are to take full advantage of communication methodology and if we are to relate in the most suitable way to our patrons.  Put another way, we need to get down with the kids ;). 

As for my web 2.0 experience to date - well I know how to click on a URL.  What more do you want...?  At the end of my Web 2.0 sojourn I expect to be able to tweet with Stephen Fry and to blog on David Cameron's activities.  I'm sure they could both do with my advice.
