Second Life really intrigues me, but someone needs to invent a longer day to make time for it in my life. I would also like to know more about Twitter--I hear it has great potential.
But I would attend a class on ANY of them.
Thanks, Kathie.....good point about Twitter.
Wow, I'm so on top of the techie world that I'm only just now reading this post!
I'd like to direct your attention to an email I sent last night to Laurie in response to her request for ref sharing ideas.
I have the library on FB, and may be setting up one for myspace soon. I need to talk to Nancy M. about it first.
I have a twitter, but don't use it at all.
Don't forget to bring Wendy back to teach us how to put more interactive stuff on our websites. Little animations and whatnot.
Want to do more videos this year, too. I need new stuff for my youtube acct.
I agree w/ Kathie - classes on any of this stuff is good.
