Week 2 Thing #4

What I have been doing this week:
This week I have been working on a script for a Christmas production! It's going to include drama, dance, music and multi media and will be loads of fun. I am really looking forward to getting the rehearsals under way.

Bebo:
I am finding that this web 2.0 technology is intuitive to a degree but it assumes very much that you understand what you are meant to do! Then there are the numerous usernames and passwords that one has to remember....... I now have a Blogspot one and a Bebo one and.....
It's got some pretty cool stuff though, like the design a t-shirt! and it's all very interactive. Can see how one would get hooked!

Myspace:
Has great instructions for learning more about myspace....you can take a tour! I like that! Frustrating thing was that I could register. tried about 8 times and i gave up in frustration!
Facebook:
this is great and I now have two friends!!

My first Blog

Blogging is new to me, I am a bit behind the times! Hopefully I can get up to speed.
I am a music librarian and a musician as well. I am passionate about providing access to our music resources to the music community. I am interested to see how the web2.0 technology will impact on this and how the library can utilise this technology to best effect. I am hoping that we may be able to create a space on the library website to enable the music community to communicate amongst themselves and share their music skills creatively in a virtual environment.
