LIBR 246-12: Web 2.0 and Social Networking Tools (Fall 2008)

Last Reflections

1. How has your view of social software changed since starting the course?

I do not know if my view of social software has changed. However, I have gotten a lot of new insight into these programs and I am now starting to use them. I now have a Facebook page, and I did not have that before this class. Delicious is an awesome tool as well.

The biggest change to my view of social software over the course of the semester is that I can now envision a number of useful applications for library environments.  Prior to the class, I had thought some of the social software tools were interesting, but I didn’t necessarily see how they helped librarians serve their communities.
