All good things must come to an end

Okay its my final post so I thought I'd have it in italics.... preeeeetttttttyyyyy!!!

Woh.... I've actually finished it.... the last one was a mission to finish SO I'm quite happy that I've done it. I thought the activities were relevant to our work place, but just like everything in life that you try you won't always like EVERYTHING and thats just my thought on my experience with Web 2.0. I enjoyed it but I didn't like all the activities. It was a little difficult at times to find time to do the activities but when I got the time, it was fun!!! Overall Web 2.0, the second time round, was O for awesome!!! I enjoyed the fact that most sites, except facebook, could be accessed from our log ins so I didn't have to keep going on to the learn net computers.

It was fun while it lasted and I got to visit some cool, and some not so cool, websites that I would not have otherwise. There were also websites that I did know about, they were awesome because even though I've been using zamzar and facebook for ages I still learned something NEW from the activity!

*Two thumbs up* for web 2.0

I ♥ FACEBOOK!!!

Okay, so it's obvious I love Facebook, so this week's activity was a sinch for me... I was like totally excited about being able to go onto facebook and not look over my shoulder for Jody... lol... okay, although i love Facebook it wasn't as easy as I thought...the one thing I found hard was becoming a fan on the Manukau Libraries fb page.... ummm and I still dont know how to... lol Rich tried helping but he added to my confusion... (trust boys to confuse you more, should've asked a girl... lol) but I left a message on the page to show I was in there... the next activities were cool, commenting on the discussion boards.. I especially liked the one about the best book I've read (I'll let you read that one when you visit the manukau libraries fb page) Ummmm, what else???? I went into the Wellington Libraries fb page and found that they post stuff like winners of competitions, vacancies and they also let people know about new stock which is cool.... very similar to our page... i kind of find the business pages a bit "ugly" mainly coz of how many applications show up???? but yeh other than that, it was cool to see, I don't think I'll be following them tho.. hehehehe... (just being honest, not trying to be hurtful... lol)

On a personal note.... like I said in the title I absolutely ♥ Facebook, mainly coz I get to catch with "back in the day" friends... and also the "new" friends I meet when Im out and about... hehehehe.... and heaps of patrons use facebook here at our library, I think thats where we get most of our cash in take at the end of the day... lol... thats how popular it is. I will definately keep using facebook after this and yes... I would totally let patrons know about FB..... One of the best networking services that we have for our generation.... love it! love it! love it!

xoxo
