First entry

Last year I undertook to do the How 2 of Web 2.0 course but, time constantly slipped away from me and here I am, trying to complete the course this time. My main purpose in this undertaking is to try to determine what aspects of Web 2.0 are most applicable to the out-of-school resource centre which I manage. Because of the nature of our library, I don't actually work with students and therefore feel that I am falling behind in terms of understanding what kinds of online tools they are using and how they are applying them to their learning and socialising. Indeed, I still own a mobile phone on which I can do little more than make and receive calls and text messages. I'm hoping this course will take me some way beyond that!
