Purpose
This blog will focus on Web 2.0. People use social networking today to communicate with friends and even to find friends who they have lost contact with. Facebook, Twitter, Skype, etc. are a few of these social network websites. There are both advantages and disadvantages to using social networks in today's world.

I can't wait to see what your ideas are about Web 2.0! (This is actually what I'm doing my PPT/YouTube project on.) What's interesting to me is that even though social media seems to have started out as a way for people to connect with their friends, now businesses and organizations like libraries are embracing the technology and using it to drum up interest among prospective patrons/customers.
ReplyDeleteI picked the same topic, Michelle! The participatory nature of Web 2.0 is fascinating as is the way it has changed information sharing and creation.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you're already planning on doing this, but I would love to see a post about the benefits and drawbacks (if there are any?) to libraries reaching out to the public using Web 2.0. Is it a good idea to go the whole hog and represent the library on every social networking site or just stick the basics like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube?
ReplyDeleteWeb 2.0 seems like it's here to stay. It'll be interesting to learn more about it. I can't even imagine what or when they'll start devising Web 3.0 XD
