Wrap Up

In pondering my time with the 23Things, I am encouraged that our library system is moving forward with today's technology. As a new(er) employee, I am glad to be able to use these technologies in our day to day work activities. I've covered quite a bit of these 23 Things in library school, but am glad to see them here in the real library world! Seeing technology in action is even more exciting than reading and talking about it.

I've enjoyed being able to play at work as well. I place a large amount of value on being able to have fun at work and with work, so to speak. Most of these technologies have been fun to play with, but will also some fun to our work. Our branch's RA committee has implemented a wiki to share authors and it is fun to play with and to use for work! So thank you 23 Things, for making at least some of our work FUN! :0)

My favorite things were learning about wikis and I love all of the Flickr fun. The only thing I would have like to have covered and discussed is social networking sites. I know that they are harder to discover without joining and many people would not have felt comfortable doing so. Some discussion in depth would have been nice. Otherwise, I feel like everyone who completes this hefty project has been stretched and must have learned something.
