Podcasts...
I am not sure about this either. I do not know how this could really improve my life. I searched the three listed websites and nothing jumped out at me.
I did go to the ala wiki and there were some podcasts there. This might be useful in the future, especially YALSA podcasts.

Week 9...20
You Tube...
I really, really, really want to love this. It seems like a great idea and I hear so much about it. But, I am still not crazy about it. Some of the stuff on the is ridiculous crap. Some of it I find interesting and cool. I was able to see Faith Hill yelling at a fan at a recent concert. That is something You Tube helped me accomplish.
This could be neat, but is definitly something I could live without. Who has time to sit around and just talk to a camera and post it on the internet?

Week 8...Thing 19...45 minutes later
Just kidding. I did not have a lot of fun with any of the Web 2.0 winners. Youtube was not as fun as I thought it would be. Maybe I need more time to play. I went to cocktailbuilder.com and esty.com and did not go crazy over them. I have used zillow before and like that site.
Some of these sites are interesting. But, for me it would be just as easy to Google whatever I was looking for and go from there. No need for a Web 2.0 site.

Oh my goodness, this thing looks like so much fun!!! I have heard of a lot of the sites before and gone to a couple of them. I did not even know I was particpating in Web 2.0. I have to say I have never been to YouTube. I think that is where I am going to play first.
Week 8...Thing 18
Wow, this is really interesting!!! Instead of having my files all on a flashdrive or floppy I can upload them here and take them with me anywhere. I go to different branches two times a week. We have been assigned personal logins that can float our files, but that has not been working for me. This could be really helpful!
I published this to my blog from Google docs!!!
It took me several tries to get my Google doc sent to my blog. The process was really easy, but it kept sending to the wrong blog. Once I took a deep breath it worked fine. I just went to Google because I already had an account set up.
I think these tools are really interesting. Maybe a tutorial on how to use them could be helpful to those not to familiar with Excel, or even Word.

Week 7...Thing 16
Wikis...
Let's see. My main experience with Wikis is dealing with Wikipedia. When I first started to use the site I was a little to critical of it. I would not rely on it at all. With using it a little more it grew on me. As much as you need to be cautious that anyone can add information to wikis, it is nice because you can get so many points of view and influences.
My LATI group also used a wiki. That was very confusing. It was hard for us to find the site and then posting on it was not hard but it was not as easy as I thought it should be.
I do not know if I missed something, but how can I create a wiki of my own? It would be a great tool for me in helping plan programs and projects with people that I do not see all of the time.
